Parental input as a mediating pathway for gender differences in early academic skills
Open AccessMarina Vasilyeva, Catalina Rey‐guerra et al.ARTICLEEarly Childhood Research Quarterly2025References: 2
Gender similarities and differences in early childhood development in low- and middle-income countries
Open AccessCatalina Rey‐guerra, Aisha K Yousafzai et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2024
Gender differences in early childhood development are under-researched in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) where almost 90% of the world’s young children live. This study examines the direction, magnitude, and variation of gender similarities and differences in 3- and 4-year-olds’ early childhood development in 71 low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Moreover, we explore whether country-level gender inequality correlates with gender …
Do more hours in center-based care cause more externalizing problems? A cross-national replication study
Open AccessCatalina Rey‐guerra, H D Zachrisson et al.ARTICLEChild Development2023
Whether high quantities of center-based care cause behavior problems is a controversial question. Studies using covariate adjustment for selection factors have detected relations between center care and behavior problems, but studies with stronger internal validity less often find such evidence. We examined whether within-child changes in hours in center-based care predicted changes in externalizing problems in toddlers and preschoolers (N = 10,1…
Measuring the quality of early childhood education
Open AccessC Maldonado-Carreño, Hirokazu Yoshikawa et al.ARTICLEChild Development2022
National-level monitoring of quality of early childhood education (ECE) is key to achieving inclusive and equitable education. Most countries report structural quality while process characteristics are rarely observed at the national level. This study examined the associations between ECE and children's development in a middle-income country using data from a nationally representative sample of public centers serving Colombian children (N = 3163;…
Making meaning of women's persistence and protagonism in the wake of genocidal violence
Open AccessM B Lykes, Gabriela Távara et al.ARTICLEFeminism & Psychology2022References: 7
Fifteen Maya Ixil and K’iche’ women of Chajul, Guatemala, were interviewed 17 years after publishing their feminist participatory action photovoice research. Their book documents gross violations of human rights during nearly 36 years of armed conflict and their memories of survivance and persistence. A constructivist grounded theory analysis of in-depth interviews with these Maya Ixil and K’iche’ women contributed to the authors’ “bottom up” mea…
Family engagement in early learning opportunities at home and in early childhood education centers in Colombia

Maternal knowledge, stimulation, and early childhood development in low‐income families in Colombia
Open AccessJorge Cuartas, Catalina Rey‐guerra et al.ARTICLEInfancy2020
Theoretical models assume that parental knowledge about child development and caregiving motivates parental stimulation, shaping child development. Evidence supporting these models is scarce in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). This study tests the relations between maternal knowledge, stimulation, and child development in a Colombian sample of 1,277 low‐income mothers and their children under the age of five. Mothers showed diverse knowl…
