Erin O. Dawe-Lane; Rob Saunders; Eirini Flouri; William P. L. Mandy – JCPP Advances, 2025
Background: Emotion and peer problems tend to increase in autistic young people during adolescence. However, the extent to which endogenous (e.g., pubertal maturation) and exogenous (e.g., school adjustment, bullying) factors contribute to trajectories of emotion and peer problems in autistic young people is unclear. Methods: Using data from the…

Blake, Jamilia J.; Jackson, Lyric; Ruffin, Naomi; Salter, Phia; Li, Haoran; Banks, Courtney; Williams, Kayce Solari – Journal of Emotional and Behavioral Disorders, 2022
The purpose of this study was to examine whether school discipline sanctions issued to female students are attributed to their racial background and developmental status and if this relation differs by teacher's racial/ethnic background and discipline philosophy. Drawing from a sample of 515 practicing educators from the United States, the authors…

Zihua Ye; Karen D. Rudolph – Developmental Psychology, 2024
Theory and research highlight the mismatch between puberty-associated challenges and personal coping resources among youth with early actual or perceived pubertal timing. This study (N = 167; M[subscript age] = 12.41 years; 51.5% female; 77.8% White American) examined whether coping resources provided by mothers (maternal socialization of coping)…

Sally Hang; Geneva M. Jost; Amanda E. Guyer; Richard W. Robins; Paul D. Hastings; Camelia E. Hostinar – Child Development Perspectives, 2024
Loneliness becomes more prevalent as youth transition from childhood into adolescence. A key underlying process may be the puberty-related increase in biological stress reactivity, which can alter social behavior and elicit conflict or social withdrawal (fight-or-flight behaviors) in some youth, but increase prosocial (tend-and-befriend) responses…

Paechter, Carrie – Gender and Education, 2021
Ideas about gender are changing. The UK and other countries are moving towards altering laws about gender recognition. Intersex people can be recognised as such in some countries. In the global North, nonbinary identities are becoming more common, and this is reflected in changes to recording systems. Referrals to child gender identity clinics are…

Objective: The short-term safety of methylphenidate (MPH) has been widely demonstrated; however the long-term safety is less clear. The aim of this study was to investigate the safety of MPH in relation to pubertal maturation and to explore the monitoring of bone age. Method: Participants from ADDUCE, a two-year observational longitudinal study…

The age of the onset of menstruation, termed menarche, has been declining for decades worldwide. Approximately 12% of Australian girls reach menarche between eight to 11 years of age. Current health and physical education subject guidelines from the Australian Curriculum Assessment and Reporting Authority state that puberty education should be…

DePasquale, Carrie E.; Herzberg, Max P.; Gunnar, Megan R. – Child Development Perspectives, 2021
Recent research has suggested that the pubertal period provides an opportunity for recalibrating the stress-responsive systems in youth whose responses to stress have been altered by early adversity. Such recalibration may have cascading effects that affect brain and behavioral development. In this article, we consider a large, cross-species…

Barker, D.; Varea, V.; Bergentoft, H.; Schubring, A. – Sport, Education and Society, 2023
Physical education (PE) has significant potential to shape how young people experience their own and others' bodies. This potential has not always been realized in positive ways and some research suggests that experiences in PE have contributed to young people's dissatisfaction with their appearances. The broad aim of this review is to provide a…

Weimer, Kristina R.; Rutkowski, Joanne – Music Educators Journal, 2023
When working with beginning instrumentalists, many music educators emphasize executive skills specific to the mechanics of playing an instrument. However, beginning students can also benefit from focused vocal instruction as a complement to their musical growth in the instrumental setting. Because instrumental music educators may feel ill equipped…

Black, Candace J.; McEwen, Fiona S.; Smeeth, Demelza; Popham, Cassandra M.; Karam, Elie; Pluess, Michael – Developmental Psychology, 2023
Increasing research shows pubertal development accelerates following threats while it decelerates following deprivation. Yet, these environmental stressors are unlikely to occur in isolation. We investigated how war exposure and energetic stress impact pubertal development using data from the longitudinal Biological Pathways of Risk and Resilience…
