Annika Rademacher; Jelena Zumbach; Ute Koglin – Early Childhood Education Journal, 2025
Parenting styles act as a risk or a protective factor for the development of aggressive behavior problems in children.

Osgood, Jayne; de Rijke, Victoria – Global Studies of Childhood, 2022
Often used in the plural, "tantrum" denotes an uncontrolled outburst of anger and frustration, typically in a young child.

Drawing on a range of theoretical traditions, this paper investigates the complex yet generative…

Reddy, Vasudevi – Developmental Psychology, 2019
Emotions remain something of a mystery for most of us even when we accept their centrality to development in general and to infancy in particular. I make 2 arguments in this paper. One: that the most crucial thing about emotions is that they allow mutuality of engagement with other emotional beings--not only evoking responses, but also provoking…

Fukkink, Ruben G. – Infant and Child Development, 2022
Infants attend daycare at an early age, which raises questions about children's sensitivity to the childcare environment and the role of different temperamental traits in their development in the early years. In a two-year longitudinal study with parent- and caregiver-reported data for Dutch children at the age of 1 and 2 years (120 children from…

Middle-class Chilean mothers and children (N = 875; 52% males) were studied when children were 1, 5, 10, and 16 years (1991--2007). Results indicated that highly depressed mothers provided…

Burenkova, Olga V.; Podturkin, Aleksei A. – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2020
Under conditions of suboptimal parental care, children with specific temperamental features have been shown to be especially vulnerable to the effects of stress. Most studies of temperamentally vulnerable children have been conducted using parental questionnaires, which are unfortunately not completely objective. An alternative approach, the use…

Rousseau, Sofie; Feldman, Tamar; Harroy, Lisa; Avisar, Nitzan; Wolf, Melissa; Bador, Keren; Frenkel, Tahl – Early Child Development and Care, 2020
Caregivers' sensitive responses to infant cry have long-term consequences for adaptive child development. Although mounting evidence suggests that parents who experience high emotionality to infant cry respond less sensitively to infant cry, there is a dearth of knowledge on potential mechanisms underlying individual differences in emotionality to…

Guassi Moreira, João F.; McLaughlin, Katie A.; Silvers, Jennifer A. – Developmental Psychology, 2019
Variability is a fundamental feature of human brain activity that is particularly pronounced during development. However, developmental neuroimaging research has only recently begun to move beyond characterizing brain function exclusively in terms of magnitude of neural activation to incorporate estimates of variability. No prior neuroimaging…

Silfver, Eva; Jacobsson, Maritha; Arnell, Linda; Bertilsdotter-Rosqvist, Hanna; Härgestam, Maria; Sjöberg, Magdalena; Widding, Ulrika – Gender and Education, 2020
The aim of this paper is to analyse how Swedish grade three children are discursively positioned as pupils when they are taking national tests in mathematics and when they reflect on the testing situation afterwards. With support from theories about affective-discursive assemblages, we explore children's body language, emotions, and talk in light…

The present study examines how they are enacted in a Swedish preschool (for 1-5-year-olds) through recurrent adult-child physical conduct, i.e. affectionate and affectionate-controlling touch. The data consist of 24 hours…

Mikuska, Éva; Fairchild, Nikki – Global Education Review, 2020
Technocratic accountability, which is impacting ECEC practices in England, is where the government favors evidence-based knowledge to work with children. As a result, the emotional aspect of ECEC work and emotional labor have become increasingly complex and are sometimes unrecognized. In this paper we highlight the importance of more relational,…
