Bernier, Annie; Meins, Elizabeth – Developmental Psychology, 2008
Disorganized attachment in infancy is known to predict a wide range of maladaptive outcomes, but its origins are poorly understood. Parental lack of resolution concerning loss or trauma has been proposed to result in atypical parenting behaviors, which in turn have a disorganizing effect on the parent-child relationship. The authors review the…

Brunet, Philippe – European Journal of Physics, 2007
From the streets of clouds to the submarine sand ripples or the striations on the coats of some animals, nature offers many examples of spontaneous patterned structures originating from various instabilities. These patterns can in turn destabilize and show a rich, complex dynamics and possibly end up in disordered behaviours. For over 20 years,…

Burton, Stephen; Miller, Heather; Roossinck, Carrie – Science Teacher, 2007
Along with the bright hues of orange, red, and yellow, the season of fall represents significant changes, such as day length and temperature. These changes provide excellent opportunities for students to use science process skills to examine how abiotic factors such as weather and temperature impact organisms. In this article, the authors describe…

Collins, J.S.; Robinson, E.J. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2005
Results of three experiments confirmed previous findings that in a moving word task, prereaders 3 to 5 years of age judge as if the meaning of a written word changes when it moves from a matching to a nonmatching toy (e.g., when the word ''dog'' moves from a dog to a boat). We explore under what circumstances children make such errors, we identify…

Conrad, Nicole J.; Levy, Betty Ann – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2007
The ability to recognize letter patterns within words as a single unit is important for fluent reading. This skill is based on previously established memory representations of common letter patterns. The ability to form these memory representations may be impaired in some poor readers, particularly readers with naming speed deficits (NSD). This…
