Caregivers and teachers reported children's sympathy and overt aggression in 3-year intervals. Second-order latent curve models indicated general mean-level declines in…

Background: Little is known about the nature, range and prevalence of different subgroups in language trajectories extant in a population from 4 to 11 years. This hinders strategic targeting and design of interventions, particularly targeting those whose difficulties will likely persist. Methods: Children's language abilities from 4 to 11 years…

Baillargeon, Raymond H.; Sward, Gregory D.; Keenan, Kate; Cao, Guanqiong – Infancy, 2011
Recent epidemiological evidence suggests that even in the midst of the "terrible twos," frequent/severe oppositional-defiant behaviors (ODBs) are not common among toddlers and hence may be indicative of a significant opposition-defiance problem. The main objective of this study was to obtain a maximum likelihood estimate of the…

Chevalier, Arnaud; Marie, Olivier – Centre for Economic Performance, 2014
We study the link between parental selection and children criminality in a new context. After the fall of the Berlin Wall, East Germany experienced an unprecedented temporary drop in fertility driven by economic uncertainty. We exploit this natural experiment to estimate that the children from these (smaller) cohorts are 40 percent more likely to…

Hallam, Susan; Parsons, Samantha – British Educational Research Journal, 2013
The adoption of streaming in the primary school (where children are placed in a class on the basis of measures of attainment and remain in that class all of the time) was commonplace when the 11 plus examination was used to select children for grammar school places. During the 1950s and 1960s the practice died out with most children being taught…

Accelerated longitudinal analyses of 7 cohorts of Dutch children over a 10-year period were used to determine whether longitudinal data on children in 1 cohort could predict outcomes of psychopathology in another. Results support accelerated longitudinal analysis to combine short-term longitudinal studies of behavioral-emotional problems into a…
