Huijzer-Engbrenghof, Marijke; van Rijn-van Gelderen, Loes; van den Akker, Alithe; Jorgensen, Terrence D.; Overbeek, Geertjan – Developmental Psychology, 2023
Child temperament has long been viewed as a potential susceptibility factor in the link between parenting and child disruptive behavior (CDB). Specifically, the idea is that children with higher negative emotionality, surgency, and lower effortful control are more affected by their received parenting, but experimental evidence is scarce. Also,…

Many existing preventive intervention programs focus on promoting responsive parenting practices. However, these parenting programs are often long in duration and expensive, and meta-analytic evidence indicates that families facing high levels of adversity typically benefit less. Moreover, due to a lack of specification and evaluation of…

Weeland, Joyce; Brummelman, Eddie; Jaffee, Sara R.; Chhangur, Rabia R.; van der Giessen, Danielle; Matthys, Walter; Orobio de Castro, Bram; Overbeek, Geertjan – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Caregivers are often encouraged to praise children to reduce externalizing behavior. Although several theoretical perspectives suggest that praise works (e.g., praise reinforces positive behavior), others suggest it may not (e.g., children dismiss praise or experience it as controlling). This longitudinal-observational study examined whether (a)…

Brown, Courtney; Eccles, Renata; Graham, Marien; van der Linde, Jeannie – Early Child Development and Care, 2022
Children in impoverished settings face a multitude of risk factors that may impact early childhood development (ECD).
