Natsuaki, Misaki N.; Klimes-Dougan, Bonnie; Ge, Xiaojia; Shirtcliff, Elizabeth A.; Hastings, Paul D.; Zahn-Waxler, Carolyn – Journal of Clinical Child and Adolescent Psychology, 2009
An accumulating body of literature has shown a link between early pubertal maturation and internalizing problems, particularly among girls.
