Roads to regulation
Emotion regulation begins to develop early in childhood and has important implications for optimal development. Individual regulatory factors, such as effortful control and baseline respiratory sinus arrhythmia (bRSA), have been demonstrated as markers that influence the development of emotion regulation across childhood. The aim of this present study was to examine the stability and the direct and indirect associations of these regulatory factor…
Gender differences in spousal caregiver strain and paid service use among dementia caregivers in rural Appalachia
Spousal caregivers of persons living with dementia (PLwD) often experience high overload and loneliness due to the intensive and ongoing nature of caregiving for their partner. Paid in-home services, such as assistance with daily household tasks, respite care, or personal care, might help ease caregivers' physical strain; however, it is unclear if these in-home services effectively address loneliness and overload and whether their benefits differ…
Deep Approaches to Learning, Student Satisfaction, and Employability in STEM
This study examines the link between deep approaches to learning (DAL) and undergraduate senior students’ employability skills and perceived satisfaction in STEM fields in the United States. DAL, comprising higher-order (HO) and reflective/integrated (RI) learning constructs, enhances the understanding of real-world applications and promotes reflective thinking about individual ideas in broader contexts. HO activities focus on analyzing, synthesi…
Couples Facing Skin Cancer in Old Age
This study investigated perceived support received by partners and its association with quality of life (QOL) in older couples facing skin cancer. Thirty couples ( n = 60; M Age = 70) in which one partner had a skin cancer diagnosis (PwSC) completed either online or paper surveys about their skin cancer diagnosis, perceived partner support, and overall QOL. Actor–partner interdependence models revealed that when PwSCs reported overprotection from…
Dementia Family Caregiving in Rural Appalachia
Findings revealed subtle variation across caregivers in this study and in comparison, to caregivers' experiences more generally. We interpret these variations in light of culturally influenced attitudes, family norms, and sources of information about formal services. Place-based cultural experience influenced dementia family caregivers' behaviors and choices regarding formal service use, suggesting that investigators should pay more attention to …
Infant electroencephalogram coherence and early childhood inhibitory control
Social cognition is a set of complex processes that mediate much of human behavior. The development of these skills is related to and interdependent on other cognitive processes, particularly inhibitory control. Brain regions associated with inhibitory control and social cognition overlap functionally and structurally, especially with respect to frontal brain areas. We proposed that the neural foundations of inhibitory control and social cognitio…
Dementia Caregiving During the “Stay-at-Home” Phase of Covid-19 Pandemic
Use of the transactional model of stress responses yielded important insights about families coping with dementia. Caregivers' perceptions of the pandemic's impact varied, with differential effects on their well-being
Technology Adoption by Older Adults
Background and Objectives: There is growing evidence of the benefits of computers for older adults. Yet, adoption rates are lower compared with younger adults. Extant theoretical models of technology acceptance are limited in their application to older adults-studies on which these models are based included a limited sample of older adults or none at all; none assessed use of a technology specifically designed for older adults; and most only meas…
Infant Electroencephalogram Coherence and Toddler Inhibition are Associated with Social Responsiveness at Age 4
Previous work has suggested that individual differences in infant functional neuroconnectivity are a potential biomarker for later cognitive and social outcomes, but the mechanisms are unclear. This study investigated a longitudinal model of infant frontotemporal electroencephalogram ( EEG ) coherence predicting toddler inhibition, which then predicted childhood social responsiveness. A structural equation model showed good fit, with increased ri…
Mastery and Longevity in Spousal Caregivers of Persons with Dementia
Findings have implications for support programs that help build personal mastery
Cumulative Risk and Immigrant Youth's Health and Educational Achievement
Using data from Children of Immigrants Longitudinal Study, this study examined the longitudinal effects of cumulative risk of immigrant parents on immigrant youth's health and educational achievement in young adulthood. The mediating effects of intra- (i.e., family cohesion) and inter-familial (i.e., parental school involvement) social capital were also examined. The findings showed that cumulative risk was negatively associated with youth's heal…
Where You Age Matters
Developing effective service promotion tactics, destigmatizing community services, and targeting services and support, especially to women, could decrease health disparities in rural Appalachia and similar geographic areas
Socioeconomic success and mental health profiles of young adults who drop out of college
Based on the developmental theories of life course and emerging adulthood, the current study examines a central question about the diversity of trajectories among young adults who drop out of college. The National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health) provides prospective data on a nationally representative sample of US young adults. Our subsamples include young adults who dropped out of college (N = 1,530) and those who o…
Salivary Cortisol
Routine Support to Parents and Stressors in Everyday Domains
Findings lend support to the caregiving career framework for understanding even casual routine assistance provided to a parent
Measuring Walsh’s Family Resilience Framework
Walsh’s family resilience framework presents a comprehensive and inclusive lens of family process that may assist clinicians, family service professionals, and health care providers with understanding the functioning of individuals and families in their care. A mechanism for using this framework is needed, as is empirical evidence of its cogency. This article reports on the development of the Family Resilience Assessment, a 29-item survey intende…
Interpersonal Neurobiology and Couple Relationship Quality
Evaluating Collaboration for Effectiveness
Although collaboration is recognized as an effective means to address multifaceted community issues, successful collaboration is difficult to achieve and failure is prevalent. To effectively collaborate, collaborators must recognize the strengths and weaknesses within their own efforts. Using Mattessich and colleagues’ work as a springboard, a seven-factor model of effective collaboration is presented along with an accompanying evaluation tool, t…
Personality as a source of individual differences in cognition among older African Americans
Effects of Daily Stressors on the Psychological and Biological Well-being of Spouses of Persons With Mild Cognitive Impairment
The findings document the negative physiological effects of having a spouse with MCI and provide new details on probable causes of psychological and biological distress. They shed light on MCI-specific interventions to address couples' needs before severe disease progression occurs that could interfere with spouses' ability to provide home-based care and support
Effects of Adult Day Care on Daily Stress of Caregivers
Total exposure to stressors and stress appraisals decreased significantly over time on ADS days compared with non-ADS days. Most of this difference was accounted by the time the person with dementia was away from the caregiver, but there were also significant reductions in behavioral problems during the evening and improved sleep immediately following ADS use. DISCUSSION. ADS use lowered caregivers' exposure to stressors and may improve behavior …
Long-Term Influences of Intergenerational Ambivalence on Midlife Parents' Psychological Well-being
We investigated changes in midlife parents' intergenerational ambivalence toward a focal child and its influence on their psychological well-being over 14 years, as the focal child moved from adolescence into young adulthood. We estimated growth curve models using three waves of data from the National Survey of Families and Households (N = 1,510 parents aged 35–54 years at Time 1). Parental ambivalence declined over time, equally among mothers an…
Financial Literacy of Young Adults
This article tests a conceptual model of perceived parental influence on the financial literacy of young adults. Structural equation modeling was used to test whether (a) parents were perceived to influence young adults' financial knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors and (b) the degree to which young adults' financial attitudes mediated financial knowledge and perceived parental influence on young adults' financial behaviors. A sample consisting o…
Within-Family Variability in Representations of Past Relationships With Parents
Results link adults' memories of experiences with their parents in childhood to their current well-being and highlight the importance of considering within-family models for family theory
Psychosocial and Biological Markers of Daily Lives of Midlife Parents of Children with Disabilities
Using daily telephone interviews, 82 midlife parents (mean age = 57.4) of children with disabilities (mean age = 29.9) were compared with a closely matched sample of unaffected parents (N = 82) to elucidate the daily experience of nonnormative parenting. In addition, salivary cortisol samples were obtained to examine whether parents of children with disabilities had dysregulated diurnal rhythms and the extent to which the amount of time spent wit…

Routine Assistance to Parents
Even after we controlled for within-person (daily situational variables) and between-person factors (background characteristics), the act of providing assistance itself had immediate associations with daily mood for helpers, particularly for those with fewer resources and greater demands on time. Feasibility and success of programs that provide respite and relief services to older adults and their children should be assessed in light of daily liv…

How equitable is Sweden's changing care-mix? Linking individual and regional characteristics over time
Given its relative ethnic and socio-economic homogeneity, Sweden is an ideal nation for the study of variations in formal and informal care as a function of gender, disability and advanced age. This paper reports an analysis of the relationships between gender, disability and age and the formal care delivered to more than 1,200 people aged 75 or more years in Sweden in 1994 and 2000. In municipalities that provided above-average home-help hours p…
