Using both traditional composites and novel profiles of anger, we examined associations between infant anger and preschool behavior problems in a large, longitudinal data set (N = 966). We also tested the role of life stress as a moderator of the link between early anger and the development of behavior problems. Although traditional measures of…

In the human brain, the morphology of cortical gyri and sulci is complex and variable among individuals, and it may reflect pathological functioning with specific abnormalities observed in certain developmental and neuropsychiatric disorders. Since cortical folding occurs early during brain development, these structural abnormalities might be…

Oreopoulos, Philip; Stabile, Mark; Walld, Randy; Roos, Leslie L. – Journal of Human Resources, 2008
We use administrative data on a sample of births between 1978 and 1985 to investigate the short-, medium-, and long-term consequences of poor infant health. Our findings offer several advances to the existing literature on the effects of early infant health on subsequent health, education, and labor force attachment. First, we use a large sample…

Peer reviewedBenson, Janette B.; And Others – Developmental Psychology, 1993
Examined 114 pairs of same-sex infant twins and their parents to investigate infant predictors of adult IQ. Found that some measures of infants' information processing, language ability, and temperament predicted the average IQ of infants' parents. Results support the view that some stability in certain types of intellectual functioning from…

Oliver, Bonamy; Dale, Philip S.; Plomin, Robert – Journal of Child Language, 2004
We investigated infant precursors of low language scores in early childhood. The sample included 373 probands in 130 monozygotic (MZ) and 109 same-sex dizygotic (DZ) twin pairs in which at least one member of the pair scored in the lowest 15th percentile of a control sample on a general language factor derived from tester-administered tests at…

Emde, Robert N., Ed.; Hewitt, John K., Ed. – 2001
This book analyzes the MacArthur Longitudinal Twin Study, a collaborative study by leading developmental scientists and behavioral geneticists on the transition from infancy to early childhood. Part 1 of the book describes the twin method and procedures used and introduces the analytic strategies. Parts 2 through 4 present results related to…
