Majority country methods for developmental psychology: Evidence and insights from diverse global settings
This special issue aimed to help address the bias against Majority World countries in published methodological research in the field of developmental psychology. The 21 articles included in this issue present a diverse range of methodological articles from over 20 Majority World countries. This introductory article presents an overview of these articles, as well as the rationale for this special issue, and insights from the submission, review, an…
Tower of London: Problem parameters and error analysis in 5-year-old children from unsatisfied basic needs homes
Learning Variability Network Exchange (Levante): A Global Framework for Measuring Children's Learning Variability Through Collaborative Data Sharing
Despite the ubiquity of variation in child development within individuals, across groups, and across tasks, timescales, and contexts, dominant methods in developmental science and education research still favor group averages, short snapshots of time, and single environments. The Learning Variability Network Exchange (LEVANTE) is a framework designed to enable coordinated data collection by research teams worldwide, with the goal of measuring var…
Underrepresentation of most childhoods in the study of development. Latin American researchers' insights on limitations, advances, and challenges
This manuscript discusses the underrepresentation of childhoods from Majority world settings -especially from Latin America- in developmental psychology research, particularly highlighting the biases, limitations, and advances made in Latin America in the past two decades. It stresses biases in sampling, publishing, fundings, and theory that reinforce Minority perspectives. While focusing on Latin America, these challenges extend to other Majorit…
Differential psychophysiological responses associated with decision-making in children from different socioeconomic backgrounds
This study examined how socioeconomic status (SES) influences on decision-making processing. The roles of anticipatory/outcome-related cardiac activity and awareness of task contingencies were also assessed. One hundred twelve children (M age = 5.83, SDage = 0.32; 52.7% female, 51.8% low-SES; data collected October–December 2018 and April–December 2019) performed the Children's Gambling Task, while heart rate activity was recorded. Awareness of g…
Increased integration of functional connectivity after cognitive intervention in preschoolers from low socioeconomic status
Cognitive interventions that involve executive functions (EF)-demanding activities are effective in changing task-related brain activity in children from homes with low socioeconomic status (SES). However, less is known about the efficiency of EF-based interventions in modifying segregation and integration properties of the functional neural organization during a resting state. Further, the consideration of the initial cognitive performance in th…
Socioeconomic status differences in children’s affective decision-making: The role of awareness in the Children’s Gambling Task
Future-oriented decision-making is an important adaptive behavior. In the present study, we examined whether decision-making varies as a function of socioeconomic status (SES) using the Children's Gambling task (CGT). We administered the CGT to 227 children (49% female, 48% low SES) between the ages of 5 and 7 years. After completing the CGT, we assessed children's knowledge of the reward/loss contingencies. Data analysis was conducted through mu…
Impact of an Individualized Cognitive Training Intervention in Preschoolers from Poor Homes
Over the last few decades, different interventions were shown to be effective in changing cognitive performance in preschoolers from poor homes undertaking tasks with executive demands. However, this evidence also showed that not all children included in the intervention groups equally increased their performance levels, which could be related to individual and contextual variability. The present study aimed to explore the impact of a computerize…
Reconceptualising Person-Centered Service Models as Social Ecology Networks in Supporting Integrated Care
Efforts to address problems such as mental health, poverty, social exclusion, and chronic disease have often proven resistant to traditional policies or interventions. In this paper, we take up the challenge and present a pioneering new method of analysis in drawing on theoretical and methodological extensions of two prominent approaches, namely, social network analysis and developmental social ecology. Considered in combination, these two seemin…
Recognizing the child in child poverty
In the past few decades, a particular need for a child-centered perspective has emerged, based on evidence that children are more susceptible to environmental and social risks, and that they have different needs than adults do. This article examines issues affecting children in existing measurements and presents conceptual considerations for future work toward defining and measuring child poverty. Current definitions and measures of poverty are g…
