In certain domains, people represent some of an individual's properties (e.g., a tiger's ferocity), but not others (e.g., a tiger's being in the zoo), as stemming from the assumed "essence" of the individual's category. How do children identify which properties of an individual are essentialized and which are not? Here, we examine…

Vallorani, Alicia; Gunther, Kelley E.; Anaya, Berenice; Burris, Jessica L.; Field, Andy P.; LoBue, Vanessa; Buss, Kristin A.; Pérez-Edgar, Koraly – Developmental Psychology, 2023
Developmental theories suggest affect-biased attention, preferential attention to emotionally salient stimuli, emerges during infancy through coordinating individual differences. Here we examined bidirectional relations between infant affect-biased attention, temperamental negative affect, and maternal anxiety symptoms using a Random Intercepts…

Teaching or Learning from Baby: Inducing Explicit Parenting Goals Influences Caregiver Intrusiveness
King, Lucy S.; Hill, Kaylin E.; Rangel, Elizabeth; Gotlib, Ian H.; Humphreys, Kathryn L. – Developmental Psychology, 2023
Caregivers' goals influence their interactions with their children. In this preregistered study, we examined whether directing parents to "teach" their baby versus "learn" from their baby influenced the extent to which they engaged in intrusive (e.g., controlling, adult-centered rather than child-centered), sensitive, warm, or…

Culture is a key determinant of children's development both in its own right and as a measure of generalizability of developmental phenomena. Studying the role of culture in development requires information about participants' demographic backgrounds. However, both reporting and treatment of demographic data are limited and inconsistent in child…

Preschoolers who display extremely inhibited behavior are at risk for the development of anxiety disorders. However, behavioral inhibition (BI) is a multifaceted characteristic. Some children with BI are fearful when confronted by unfamiliar adults, peers, and objects; others are fearful when separated from their parents. In the present study, we…

Samuel P. Putnam; Ela Sehic; Brian F. French; Maria A. Gartstein; Benjamin Lira Luttges – Developmental Psychology, 2024
Data from 83,423 parent reports of temperament (surgency, negative affectivity, and regulatory capacity) in infants, toddlers, and children from 341 samples gathered in 59 countries were used to investigate the relations among culture, gender, and temperament. Between-nation differences in temperament were larger than those obtained in similar…

This longitudinal study examined the development of mother-infant objective and reported sleep quality and duration in solo-mother families (i.e., mothers who decided to parent alone) in comparison to two-parent families. We recruited 134 solo mothers and 161 married mothers during pregnancy, most representing the middle to upper socioeconomic…

Manalel, Jasmine A.; Antonucci, Toni C. – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Personal networks undergo changes in structure and composition throughout the life span, adapting to developmental transitions and changing circumstances in a dynamic way. This study examines stability and change in social convoys from childhood to adulthood and variation in trajectories of convoy characteristics by gender and race. Multilevel…

Peets, Kätlin; Hodges, Ernest Van Every – Developmental Psychology, 2023
Youth with greater levels of narcissism face a wide array of difficulties in interactions with others. However, there exists a curious lack of research on their close relationships, such as friendships. In this study, we examined associations between narcissism and friendship features over time. Participants were 261 eighth and ninth graders (112…

Foley, Sarah; Devine, Rory T.; Hughes, Claire – Developmental Psychology, 2023
This study examined the development of caregiver mind-mindedness--defined as the propensity to see one's child as an agent with an independent mind--across the first 1,000 days of life. At four timepoints (i.e., third trimester of pregnancy, 4, 14, and 24 months postpartum), 384 first-time mothers (M[subscript age] = 32.55, SD = 3.63 years) and…

Kunkel, Jacob J.; Magro, Sophia W.; Bleil, Maria E.; Booth-LaForce, Cathryn; Vandell, Deborah Lowe; Fraley, R. Chris; Roisman, Glenn I. – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Individual differences in the quality of early experiences with primary caregivers have been reliably implicated in the development of socioemotional adjustment and, more recently, physical health. However, few studies have examined the development of such associations with physical health into the adult years. To that end, the current study used…

Knapp, Kyler S.; Chimed-Ochir, Ulziimaa; Apsley, Hannah B.; Eng, Sothy; Fosco, Gregory M.; Cleveland, H. Harrington – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Adolescents are tasked with navigating competing priorities, including whether to marry, have children, pursue a job/career, go to college, and contribute to society. The developmental task of building expectations for the future is especially complex for Cambodian adolescents living within a society that strongly prioritizes family obligations…

Reiss, David; Nielsen, Lisbeth; Godfrey, Keith; McEwen, Bruce; Power, Christine; Seeman, Teresa; Suomi, Stephen – Developmental Psychology, 2019
Epidemiological evidence links exposure to early life adversities--such as childhood maltreatment--with impaired health and well-being in adulthood. Since these effects are usually unrecognized or untreated in childhood, preventive and remediating interventions in adults are needed. Our focus on adulthood prompted three major questions. First,…

Peterson, Candida C.; Wellman, Henry M. – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Children make choices between generosity and greed every day. Often they must also choose between confession or denial of antisocial acts like greed, thereby displaying either honesty or hypocrisy. Such choices pose cognitive challenges that, in theory, might reflect children's developing social-cognitions and affect their daily social lives and…

Murray, Christopher; Kosty, Derek; Doren, Bonnie; Gau, Jeff M.; Seeley, John R. – Developmental Psychology, 2021
Interest in the pathways young people take from high school to early adulthood indicates that participation in early employment and postsecondary education facilitates long-term independence, agency, and career stability (Eliason et al., 2015; Shanahan et al., 2002). Although many adolescents with disabilities do not participate in these early…
