Megan W. Wolk; Ryan Bogdan; Thomas F. Oltmanns; Patrick L. Hill – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2024
Given the developmental benefits associated with higher sense of purpose, past work has aimed to understand how experiences of adversity relate to sense of purpose. With a specific focus on experiences of adversity that may impact individuals from marginalized groups, past work has found that discrimination is related to lower sense of purpose in…

Ezgi Yildiz; Berna A. Uzundag – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2024
Effortful control, the ability to suppress a dominant response over a subdominant one, is a fundamental aspect of self-regulation. It has been observed that higher levels of parenting stress are associated with lower levels of effortful control in children. Perceived social support, an important factor in reducing parenting stress, may act as a…

This study advances the cross-cultural temperament literature by comparing temperament ratings of toddlers from 14 nations. Multilevel modeling (MLM) procedures were utilized to regress negative emotionality (NE) and component subscales on Hofstede's cultural value dimensions while controlling for age and gender. More individualistic values were…

Emma Bolhuis; Anat Scher; Hanit Ohana; Rotem Ad-Epsztein; Micah Leshem; Roseriet Beijers – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2024
Exposure to war is known to impact children's physical and mental health. Recent research reveals that war exposure might even affect the developmental outcomes of children who are yet to be conceived. In this study, we sought to extend such prior work by investigating longitudinal associations between pre-conception war exposure and the…

Geukens, Flore; Maes, Marlies; Spithoven, Annette; Pouwels, J. Loes; Danneel, Sofie; Cillessen, Antonius H. N.; van den Berg, Yvonne H. M.; Goossens, Luc – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2022
Current theories of loneliness posit that biases in social information processing play a key role in the development and maintenance of loneliness. However, this assumption has rarely been tested in longitudinal research in adolescence. The current study concentrated on two constructs associated with such biases, that is, fear of negative…

Staples, Angela D.; Bates, John E.; Petersen, Isaac T.; McQuillan, Maureen E.; Hoyniak, Caroline – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2019
The present study considered multiple aspects of sleep in a community sample of young children (at ages 30, 36, and 42 months) and their mothers, using both diaries and actigraphy. Through principal components analysis, 17 of 20 commonly used actigraphy variables were reduced to four main components whose variables formed composites of: Activity,…

Barbara A. Morrongiello; Amanda Cox; Lindsay Bryant – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2024
Unintentional injury represents a significant health threat to children, and infancy marks a particularly vulnerable stage. This multi-method study (questionnaire, diary) measured parents' (N = 143) use of three popular home-safety practices (teaching about safety, environment modification to reduce access to hazards, supervision) and child injury…

Scott, Allie; Winchester, Suzy Barcelos; Sullivan, Mary C. – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2018
Premature infants have significant risk for later behavior problems. This study examined growth trajectories of three problem behaviors across five developmental age points from preschool to early adulthood in a well-characterized sample of premature infants. The effects of neonatal risk, gender, and socioeconomic context were modeled on these…

Malooly, Ashley M.; Flannery, Kaitlin M.; Ohannessian, Christine McCauley – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2017
Previous studies have found evidence for gender and racial/ethnic differences in depressive symptoms in adolescence; however, the mechanisms driving this relationship are poorly understood. The goal of this study was to examine the role of individual differences in dispositional coping in the relationships between gender and depressive…

Menon, Meenakshi; Hannah-Fisher, Katie – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2019
The association between felt gender typicality (self-perceived similarity to the same-gender peer group) and psychosocial adjustment (self-esteem, peer social competence, depression, victimization, and aggression) was examined in a sample of early adolescents in New Delhi, India (N = 296, 130 girls, mean age = 12.73 years). We also explored…

Bachman, Noa; Palgi, Yuval; Bodner, Ehud – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2022
Mindfulness and emotion regulation through music listening are skills that share some attributes with the skill of positive solitude (PS; defined as an inner choice to dedicate time to a meaningful, enjoyable activity or experience managed by oneself, with or without the presence of others). Nevertheless, little is known about their relationship…

Shi, Qinxin; Ettekal, Idean; Liew, Jeffrey; Woltering, Steven – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2021
The current study examined the heterogeneity in the development of school-based prosocial behavior from Grades 1 to 12 and the role of multiple early childhood antecedents in predicting heterogeneous developmental trajectories of prosocial behavior in a sample of 784 children facing early risks and vulnerabilities (predominantly from low-income…

Kelly, Michelle P.; Reed, Phil – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2021
Stimulus over-selectivity is said to have occurred when only a limited subset of the total number of stimuli present during discrimination learning controls behavior, thus, restricting learning about the range, breadth, or all features of a stimulus. The current study investigated over-selectivity of 100 typically developing children, aged 3-7…

This study examined the associations among the socioeconomic status (SES) of Turkish families when children (N = 340, Mean age = 83 months, SD = 3.59, 50.3% boys) were approximately 7 years of age (Time 1) and their emotional lability and emotion regulation tendencies 3 years later (Time 3). We also examined the mediating roles of mothers' harsh…
