This study using PROSPER data (N = 977, age 11.5-age 15) investigated the longitudinal within-family associations between parent reported parental monitoring and adolescent aggression. Importantly, this study is the first one to examine parent gender and adolescent gender differences on these within-family associations. Results differed between…

The Role of Household Chaos on Levels and Trajectories of Socioemotional Behavior in the Second Year
Chimed-Ochir, Ulziimaa; Bai, Liu; Whitesell, Corey J.; Teti, Douglas M. – Developmental Psychology, 2022
The second year of life is a time of formative developmental change as basic behavioral systems undergo rapid integration and expansion. This study examined the developmental trajectories of social-emotional (SoE) outcomes and the effects of infant sex and household chaos (HC) on the development of SoE outcomes across the second year of life. The…

Ka I Ip; Jean Anne Heng; Janice Lin; Jiannong Shi; Wang Li; Sheryl Olson – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2024
Across all cultures, parents have intuitive ideas ("ethnotheories") of what undesirable child characteristics are as well as how to explain them. Yet there have been relatively few cross-cultural comparisons of parents' ethnotheories about the nature and causes of child misbehavior. 108 mothers of 5-year-old children from the United…

Deneault, Audrey-Ann; Bureau, Jean-François; Yurkowski, Kim – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Past meta-analyses show that both child-mother and child-father attachment insecurity are independently and jointly associated with more externalizing behaviors in children. Little is known, however, on the ways that different types of insecure attachment independently and jointly predict the development of externalizing behaviors over time.…

Silverman, Irwin W. – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2020
Evolutionary theory and several lines of evidence suggest that the motive to establish positive relationships with others is stronger in females than males. Accordingly, it was predicted that in young children, girls would be more likely than boys to comply with their mothers' directives. To test this prediction, the present meta-analysis examined…

Petersen, Isaac T.; LeBeau, Brandon – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2021
Poorer language ability has been shown to predict the development of externalizing behavior problems such as aggression and conduct problems. However, the developmental process that links poorer language ability to externalizing problems is unclear. The present study examined (a) whether within-child changes in language ability predict…

Van Lissa, Caspar J.; Keizer, Renske – Developmental Psychology, 2020
This longitudinal study of Australian families (n = 1,884, from age 6-12) examined how fathers' and mothers' quantitative involvement (time spent on childcare) and qualitative involvement (specific parenting behaviors) relate to children's emotional adjustment development. We used dynamic structural equation modeling to disentangle stable…

Dossi, Gaia; Figlio, David N.; Giuliano, Paola; Sapienza, Paola – National Bureau of Economic Research, 2019
We study the correlation between parental gender attitudes and the performance in mathematics of girls using two different approaches and data. First, we identify families with a preference for boys by using fertility stopping rules in a population of households whose children attend public schools in Florida. Girls growing up in a boy-biased…

Kuchirko, Yana; Bennet, Anna; Halim, May Ling; Costanzo, Philip; Ruble, Diane – Developmental Psychology, 2021
Most U.S. children grow up with siblings. Theory and prior work suggest that older siblings are important sources of gender-related information and socialization. However, few studies have investigated the patterns of these associations longitudinally across early childhood. The present study examines the influence of sibling presence and gender…

Lippold, Melissa A.; Hussong, Andrea; Fosco, Gregory; Ram, Nilam – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2021
Few longitudinal studies examine how "changes" in parent-child relationships are associated with changes in youth internalizing problems. In this longitudinal study, we investigated how developmental trends (linear change) and year-to-year lability (within-person fluctuations) in parental warmth and hostility across Grades 6 to 8 predict…
