Rejection sensitivity and the development of social anxiety symptoms during adolescence: A five-year longitudinal study International Journal of Behavioral Development (IF 1.826) Pub Date : 2021-03-02 Melanie J. Zimmer-Gembeck, Alex A. Gardner, Tanya Hawes, Mitchell R. Masters, Allison M. Waters, Lara J. Farrell
Rejection sensitivity is a bias toward expecting rejection that can result from negative social experiences and degrade emotional adjustment. In this study, rejection sensitivity was expected to predict patterns of adolescent social anxiety over 5 years when considered alongside other known or expected risk and protective factors: peer rejection (peer-reported), emotion dysregulation, self-worth, temperament

Examining the predictors of prosocial behavior in young offenders and nonoffenders International Journal of Behavioral Development (IF 1.826) Pub Date : 2021-03-02 Paula Samper, Anna Llorca, Elisabeth Malonda, M. Vicenta Mestre
Research on young offenders has primarily focused on identifying predictors of the maladaptive, aggressive behavior; there is a scarcity of evidence on factors that relate to prosocial behavior in these adolescents. The current study examined the link from parenting, emotional instability, and prosocial reasoning to prosocial behavior, while also examining the mediating roles of empathic concern (EC)

Unpacking the misfit effect: Exploring the influence of gender and social norms on the association between aggression and peer victimization International Journal of Behavioral Development (IF 1.826) Pub Date : 2021-02-25 Ellyn Charlotte Bass, Lina Maria Saldarriaga, Ana Maria Velasquez, Jonathan B. Santo, William M. Bukowski
Social norms are vital for the functioning of adolescent peer groups; they can protect the well-being of groups and individual members, often by deterring harmful behaviors, such as aggression, through enforcement mechanisms like peer victimization; in adolescent peer groups, those who violate aggression norms are often subject to victimization. However, adolescents are nested within several levels

Parental incarceration affects children’s emotional and behavioral outcomes: A longitudinal cohort study of children aged 9 to 13 years International Journal of Behavioral Development (IF 1.826) Pub Date : 2021-02-25 Daragh Bradshaw, Ann-Marie Creaven, Orla T. Muldoon
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 9 years and followed up aged 13 years living in Ireland

Choking under pressure: Does it get easier with age? How loneliness affects social monitoring across the life span International Journal of Behavioral Development (IF 1.826) Pub Date : 2020-12-20 Ellie Pearce, Manuela Barreto, Christina Victor, Claudia Hammond, Alice M. Eccles, Matthrew T. Richins, Alisha O’Neil, Megan L. Knowles, Pamela Qualter
Previous experimental work showed that young adults reporting loneliness performed less well on emotion recognition tasks (Diagnostic Analysis of Nonverbal Accuracy [DANVA-2]) if they were framed as indicators of social aptitude, but not when the same tasks were framed as indexing academic aptitude. Such findings suggested that undergraduates reporting loneliness possessed the social monitoring skills

Loneliness from young adulthood to old age: Explaining age differences in loneliness International Journal of Behavioral Development (IF 1.826) Pub Date : 2020-11-15 Louise C. Hawkley, Susanne Buecker, Till Kaiser, Maike Luhmann
Prior research in non-U.S. samples has found a complex nonlinear relationship between loneliness and age. This research has shown that established predictors of loneliness—poor health, being unmarried, living alone, and having infrequent social interactions—help to explain age differences in loneliness. However, while some variables were found to be universal predictors of loneliness at all ages, others

Family socioeconomic status and parental expectations affect mathematics achievement in a national sample of Chilean students International Journal of Behavioral Development (IF 1.826) Pub Date : 2020-10-23 Marine Hascoët, Valentina Giaconi, Ludivine Jamain
Family socioeconomic status (SES) has a significant influence on children’s academic success and is related to parents’ attitudes toward education. Moreover, according to the expectancy-value theory, parental expectations are linked to their children’s perceptions of school, which, in turn, influences the way their children invest themselves in education. In this study, we aimed to test a part of the

Age of sign language acquisition has lifelong effect on syntactic preferences in sign language users International Journal of Behavioral Development (IF 1.826) Pub Date : 2020-09-23 Julia Krebs, Dietmar Roehm, Ronnie B. Wilbur, Evie A. Malaia
Acquisition of natural language has been shown to fundamentally impact both one’s ability to use the first language and the ability to learn subsequent languages later in life. Sign languages offer a unique perspective on this issue because Deaf signers receive access to signed input at varying ages. The majority acquires sign language in (early) childhood, but some learn sign language later—a situation

Changes in adolescent loneliness and concomitant changes in fear of negative evaluation and self-esteem International Journal of Behavioral Development (IF 1.826) Pub Date : 2020-09-18 Flore Geukens, Marlies Maes, Annette Spithoven, J. Loes Pouwels, Sofie Danneel, Antonius H. N. Cillessen, Yvonne H. M. van den Berg, Luc Goossens
Current theories of loneliness posit that biases in social information processing play a key role in the development and maintenance of loneliness. However, this assumption has rarely been tested in longitudinal research in adolescence. The current study concentrated on two constructs associated with such biases, that is, fear of negative evaluation and self-esteem. More specifically, we examined whether

Accounting for standard errors of measurement when modeling change International Journal of Behavioral Development (IF 1.826) Pub Date : 2020-07-10 Kevin J. Grimm, Kimberly Fine, Gabriela Stegmann
Modeling within-person change over time and between-person differences in change over time is a primary goal in prevention science. When modeling change in an observed score over time with multilevel or structural equation modeling approaches, each observed score counts toward the estimation of model parameters equally. However, observed scores can differ in terms of their precision—both within and

Emotional contexts influence toddlers’ prosocial strategies International Journal of Behavioral Development (IF 1.826) Pub Date : 2020-03-20 Meghan Rose Donohue, Rebecca A. Williamson, Erin C. Tully
Prosocial behavior is a highly heterogeneous construct, and young children use distinct prosocial actions in response to differing emotional needs of another person. This study examined whether toddlers’ prosocial responses differed in response to two understudied emotional contexts—whether or not children caused a victim’s distress and the specific emotion expressed by the victim. Toddlers (N = 86;

Ethnic-racial discrimination experiences and ethnic-racial identity predict adolescents’ psychosocial adjustment: Evidence for a compensatory risk-resilience model International Journal of Behavioral Development (IF 1.826) Pub Date : 2020-03-19 Michael R. Sladek, Adriana J. Umaña-Taylor, Grace Oh, Mary Beth Spang, Liliana M. Uribe Tirado, Luz M. Tilano Vega, Elana R. McDermott, Kristia A. Wantchekon
Theory and empirical evidence indicate that ethnic-racial discrimination serves as a risk factor for adolescents’ psychosocial adjustment, whereas ethnic-racial identity (ERI) development promotes positive youth adjustment and can mitigate the negative outcomes of discrimination-related risk. In Colombia, the legacies of an ethnic-racial hierarchy, mestizaje ideology (i.e., the assumption that everyone

A comparison of Bayesian to maximum likelihood estimation for latent growth models in the presence of a binary outcome. International Journal of Behavioral Development (IF 1.826) Pub Date : 2020-01-10 Su-Young Kim,David Huh,Zhengyang Zhou,Eun-Young Mun
Latent growth models (LGMs) are an application of structural equation modeling and frequently used in developmental and clinical research to analyze change over time in longitudinal outcomes. Maximum likelihood (ML), the most common approach for estimating LGMs, can fail to converge or may produce biased estimates in complex LGMs especially in studies with modest samples. Bayesian estimation is a logical
