Language exposure is an important determiner of language outcomes in bilingual children. Family language strategies (FLS, e.g., one-parent-one-language) were contrasted with parents' individual language use to predict language exposure in 4-31-month-old children (50% female) living in Montreal, Quebec. Two-hundred twenty one children (primarily…

Margaret Rosencrans; AnnaCecilia McWhirter; Sheila Lopez; Laura Lee McIntyre – International Journal of Developmental Disabilities, 2024
Children with developmental delay (DD) are at increased risk for behavioral difficulties. Past research has indicated that behavioral problems can interact with other parental difficulties in families of children with DD. To date, no research has explored the moderating role of marital satisfaction in the relationship between child behavioral…

Kolak, Amy M.; Dean, Caitlin H. – Early Child Development and Care, 2023
This multi-method study examined mothers' and fathers' cognitive stimulation during parent--child interactions and toddlers' moral regulation (assessed via parent reports) as predictors of their executive functioning skills approximately 2½ years later. Forty children (23 girls and 17 boys) and their parents participated in both timepoints.…

Arslan, Zülfiye Güzin; Demircioglu, Haktan – Early Child Development and Care, 2023
The aim of this study is twofold; to answer the question of whether gender notions are predictors of father involvement, and to investigate whether involved fathers who have egalitarian notions raise more resilient children. Fathers of children aged 5-6 years (n = 377) answered questions about their gender role attitudes, their level of father…

Children who are deaf or hard-of-hearing (DHH) exhibit considerable variability in their spoken language and executive function (EF) outcomes, despite on-going improvements in sensory aid technology and public health policies that target early diagnosis and intervention. Maternal parenting cognitions and behaviors (e.g., the patterns of…

Jiwon Lee; Brian Barger – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
Although poor health has been reported in parents of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), most studies excluded fathers and focused on mental health. We combined 2016-2019 data from the National Surveys of Children's Health to determine child and parent characteristics that predict poor mental and physical health in fathers (n = 818) and…

This study examined gene-environment correlation (rGE) in intellectual and academic development in 561 U.S.-based adoptees (57% male; 56% non-Latinx White, 19% multiracial, 13% Black or African American, 11% Latinx) and their birth and adoptive parents between 2003 and 2017. Birth mother intellectual and academic performance predicted adoptive…

Albert Y. H. Lo; Su Yeong Kim; Harold D. Grotevant – Developmental Psychology, 2024
Parents' socialization beliefs have implications for the psychological adjustment of their children through their parenting behaviors; however, such pathways have rarely been established among Chinese American families. The present study examined how Chinese American parents' goals for their children to take on bicultural values and behaviors…

M. Pasco; Oosterman, Mirjam; Aviezer, Ora; Cummings, E Mark – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2021
An unsettled question in attachment theory and research is the extent to which children's attachment patterns with mothers and fathers "jointly" predict developmental outcomes. In this study, we used individual participant data (IPD) meta-analysis to assess whether early attachment networks with mothers and fathers are associated with…

Fagan, Jay; Cabrera, Natasha; Ghosh, Rachel – Developmental Psychology, 2023
The current study examined three research questions: (a) Are unmarried at birth fathers' prenatal and birth-related behavioral, attitudinal, and identity adjustments directly related to father engagement in child-related activities during early childhood and father-child closeness in middle childhood and adolescence? (b) Do father engagement in…

Nikolic, Milica; Zeegers, Moniek; Colonnesi, Cristina; Majdandžic, Mirjana; de Vente, Wieke; Bögels, Susan M. – Developmental Psychology, 2022
The ability to regulate one's emotions and behaviors is essential for adaptive functioning in society. We investigated whether parental mind-mindedness--parents' tendency to treat their children as mental agents--in infancy and toddlerhood predicts school-age children's self-regulation. The sample consisted of 125 mostly Dutch and White families.…

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.…

Downes, Naomi; Geoffray, Marie-Maude; Isnard, Pascale; Lemonnier, Eric; Orêve, Marie-Joëlle; Cappe, Emilie – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
This study explores how parenting couples use their relationship to support each other after their child's autism diagnosis by assessing the role of dyadic coping and parenting sense of competence as predictors of their coparenting quality. Mothers and fathers raising a child on the spectrum (N = 70 couples) individually completed self-report…

Shapiro, Naomi Tachikawa; Hippe, Daniel S.; Ramírez, Naja Ferjan – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Fathers play a critical but underresearched role in their children's cognitive and linguistic development. Focusing on two-parent families with a mother and a father, the present longitudinal study explores the amount of paternal input infants hear during the first 2 years of life, how this input changes over time, and how it relates to…

Kazmierczak, Maria; Pawlicka, Paulina; Anikiej, Paulina; Lada, Ariadna; Michalek-Kwiecien, Justyna – Early Child Development and Care, 2022
Child's crying is the stimuli serving the development of a child-parent relationship through evoking child-oriented and parent-oriented parental reactions. Individual differences in parental reactions to crying have been partly explained by parental and child's temperament. We conducted two studies to verify the predicting effects of temperamental…
