Empathy is assumed to be a universal human motivation to act altruistically toward others. Developmental models of empathy explaining when and how children acquire the capacity to empathize have been proposed. However, the existing knowledge is largely built upon studies conducted in the Western context. To fill this gap, a cross-culturally…

da Silva, Brenda M. S.; Ketelaar, Lizet; Veiga, Guida; Tsou, Yung-Ting; Rieffe, Carolien – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2022
Moral emotions are experienced in daily life and are crucial for mediating appropriate social behaviors, as they prevent individuals from committing transgressions. In this study, caregivers of 377 children aged between 2.5 and 6.5 years old completed the Moral Emotions Questionnaire (MEQ), a parent report aimed to separately identify the presence…

Little is known about whether a widely used mindfulness measure in adults--the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ)--is also reliable and valid in adolescents. The current study evaluated the psychometric properties of a 20-item short-form FFMQ in a sample of 599 high school students (M[subscript age] = 16.3 years; 49% female) living in the…

Petra Laamanen; Noona Kiuru; Olli Kiviruusu; Jallu Lindblom – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2024
Research has consistently shown that difficulties in facial emotion recognition (FER) are associated with peer problems and internalizing symptoms during middle childhood. However, no longitudinal research has investigated the direction of effects, that is, how these constructs influence each other across time. In this preregistered three-wave…

Buthmann, Jessica; Finik, Jackie; Nomura, Yoko – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2018
The present study examines the relationship between sex, infant temperament, and childhood psychophysiological reactivity via electrodermal activity (EDA). Both temperament and EDA are known to be relatively stable traits across the lifespan reflecting individual reactivity and regulation linked to suboptimal behavioral development and risk for…

Collet, Ophélie A.; Orri, Massimiliano; Tremblay, Richard E.; Boivin, Michel; Côté, Sylvana M. – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2023
We assessed the psychometric properties of the Social Behavior Questionnaire (SBQ), a 30-item questionnaire evaluating social (e.g., disruptive behaviors, bullying) and emotional problems (e.g., anxiety, depression) among children aged 3.5-12 years. Children (n = 1,950, 50.21% boys) were drawn from the Quebec Longitudinal Study of Child…

Bernier, Annie; Tétreault, Émilie; Bélanger, Marie-Ève; Carrier, Julie – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2017
While maternal influences on young children's sleep are increasingly documented, the study of paternal contributions to this important sphere of child functioning is only just beginning. In addition, much of this emerging research has focused on infancy only or has relied on parental reports of child sleep. The current study aimed to examine the…

This study advances the cross-cultural temperament literature by comparing temperament ratings of toddlers from 14 nations. Multilevel modeling (MLM) procedures were utilized to regress negative emotionality (NE) and component subscales on Hofstede's cultural value dimensions while controlling for age and gender. More individualistic values were…

Bradshaw, Daragh; Creaven, Ann-Marie; Muldoon, Orla T. – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2021
Parental incarceration (PI) is negatively associated with emotional, educational, and psychological child outcomes. However, few studies explore potential mechanisms through which these outcomes are transmitted or the means by which prosocial outcomes might develop. This study used data from two waves of a population cohort study of children aged…

Ren, Huiguang; Sun, Shuyan; Cheah, Charissa S. L.; Sang, Biao; Liu, Junsheng – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2019
The present study examined the factor structure of maternal attributions regarding their caregiving experiences, measured by the Parent Attributions Questionnaire, among Asian immigrant mothers. Chinese and Korean immigrant mothers (N = 333, mean age (M[subscript age]) = 36.79 years, standard deviation (SD) = 4.79) with preschool children…

Aunola, Kaisa; Viljaranta, Jaana; Tolvanen, Asko – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2017
The aim of the present study was to investigate whether parental daily distress in terms of negative emotions is associated with the daily variation in parental use of psychological control with their children. Whether parental positive emotions play a role in the use of psychological control was also investigated. The participants were 149…

Umemura, Tomo; Lacinová, Lenka; Macek, Petr; Kunnen, E. Saskia – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2017
Only a few studies have longitudinally explored to whom emerging adults prefer to turn to seek closeness, comfort, and security (called "attachment preferences"), and previous studies on attachment preferences in emerging adults have focused only on the beginning of romantic relationships but not on the end of relationships. Czech…

Preszler, Jonathan; Gartstein, Maria A. – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2018
Questions concerning longitudinal stability and multi-method consistency are critical to temperament research. Latent State-Trait (LST) analyses address these directly, and were utilized in this study. Thus, our primary objective was to apply LST analyses in a temperament context, using longitudinal and multi-method data to determine the amount of…

Vitaro, Frank; Brendgen, Mara; Girard, Alain; Dionne, Ginette; Tremblay, Richard E.; Boivin, Michel – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2016
Exposure to deviant friends has been found to be a powerful source of influence on children's and adolescents' aggressive behavior. However, the contribution of deviant friends may have been overestimated because of a possible non-accounted gene-environment correlation (rGE). In this study, we used a cross-lagged design to test whether friends'…

Niccols, Alison; Cunningham, Charles; Pettingill, Peter; Bohaychuk, Donna; Duku, Eric – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2020
Despite the availability of effective early interventions, few toddlers with emotional and behavioral issues receive these services. This situation exists partly due to challenges in the identification of mental health issues in young children. We developed the Brief Child and Family Intake and Outcomes System for toddlers, which is a 36-item…
