  • Developmental shifts in irritable behaviors from preschool to school age

    Open AccessQiongru Yu, Erin O Peterson et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2026

    Irritability comprises a set of behaviors that span normal:abnormal proneness to anger. When dysregulated and developmentally atypical, irritability indicates neurodevelopmental vulnerability for mental health problems. Yet, mental health risk indicators such as irritability likely present differently during specific developmental stages, especially across the crucial transition from preschool to early school age, when the presence of sustained e…

  • Parental Emotion Socialization Predicts Early Adolescents’ Emotion Regulation

    Open AccessCatie A Greene, Sarah A O Gray et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Early Adolescence2025References: 2

    Bolstering emerging adolescents' emotion regulation may help promote resilience to emotional disorders. This may be especially critical among offspring of parents who have experienced trauma, who are at increased risk of mental health problems. This study examines the influence of parental emotion socialization on emerging adolescents' behavioral and physiological regulation. Thirty-two parents who experienced interpersonal trauma and their 9- to…

  • Calibrating temper loss severity in the transition to toddlerhood

    Sheila Krogh‐Jespersen, Aaron J Kaat et al.ARTICLEApplied Developmental Science2022

    The integration of neurodevelopmental perspectives into clinical science has identified irritability as an early dimensional marker of lifespan mental health risk. Elucidating the developmental patterning of irritable behavior is key to differentiating normative variation from risk markers. Accounting for dysregulation and contextual features of irritability is useful for differentiation at preschool age, laying the groundwork for even earlier ch…

  • Young Child Socioemotional/Behavioral Problems and Cumulative Psychosocial Risk

    Open AccessCarol Weitzman, Carol C Weitzman et al.ARTICLEInfant Mental Health Journal2014Cited by: 3References: 33

    Limited information is available about the rates and risk correlates of socioemotional/behavioral problems in young children in pediatric primary care settings serving low-income families. Our objective was to determine rates of clinically significant socioemotional/behavior problems in 12- to 48-month-olds from low-income families and identify associations between problems and individual and cumulative demographic and psychosocial risks. In this…

  • Growth trajectories of early aggression, overactivity, and inattention

    Sarah Gray, Sarah A O Gray et al.ARTICLEDevelopmental Psychology2014Cited by: 6References: 5

    The link between behavior problems and low academic achievement is well established, but few studies have examined longitudinal relations between early externalizing behaviors before school entry and low academic achievement following transition to formal schooling. Early inattention has been particularly overlooked, despite strong associations between inattention and reading difficulties later in development. Trajectories of infant and toddler a…

    This paper examines associations between maternal ratings of social-emotional problems and competencies on the Infant–Toddler Social Emotional Assessment (ITSEA), a new adult informant instrument, with observational measures of attachment status, task mastery, emotion regulation, and coping behaviors. In addition, associations between maternal ratings on the ITSEA and the Infant Behavior Questionnaire (IBQ), a widely used temperament rating scale…

  • Preliminary acceptability and psychometrics of the infant–toddler social and emotional assessment (Itsea)

    Open AccessMargaret J Briggs‐Gowan, Margaret J Briggs-Gowan et al.ARTICLEInfant Mental Health Journal1998References: 44

    The preliminary acceptability, internal consistency, test–retest reliability, and validity of the Infant–Toddler Social and Emotional Assessment (ITSEA), a parent-report questionnaire concerning social-emotional problems and competencies, were examined in a sociodemographically diverse pediatric sample of 214 parents of 12- to 36-month-olds. Results supported the ITSEA's acceptability and preliminary internal consistency, test–retest reliability,…
