Understanding the developmental transition between parallel and social play during preschool: A multiplex social network analysis
J W Neal, Z P Neal et al.ARTICLEDevelopmental Psychology2025
Preschoolers are expected to transition from parallel play, where they engage in similar activities next to peers, to social play, where they engage in direct interactions with peers. We use longitudinal, multiplex social network analysis to examine the transition between observed parallel and social play over a school year in a 3-year-old classroom ( N = 25, 45% girls, 48% White) and a 4-year-old classroom ( N = 28, 42.86% girls, 60.71% White). …
Personality and peer groups in adolescence: Reciprocal associations and shared genetic and environmental influences
Open AccessDavid A Clark, C Emily Durbin et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality2023
OBJECTIVE: Peer groups represent a critical developmental context in adolescence, and there are many well-documented associations between personality and peer behavior at this age. However, the precise nature and direction of these associations are difficult to determine as youth both select into, and are influenced by, their peers. METHOD: We thus examined the phenotypic, genetic, and environmental links between antisocial and prosocial peer cha…
Predicting children's internalizing symptoms across development from early emotional reactivity
Open AccessLindsay N Gabel, Ola Mohamed Ali et al.ARTICLESocial Development2023Cited by: 1References: 1
Current methods of assessing children's emotional reactivity fail to capture individual differences in emotion across contexts that may be meaningfully related to youth psychopathology. We therefore explored the utility of modeling variability in young children's positive and negative emotion across emotionally evocative laboratory tasks to predict later adjustment. At age 3, 409 children completed a battery of laboratory tasks eliciting either p…

Sexual Development in Adolescence: An Examination of Genetic and Environmental Influences
Open AccessDavid A Clark, C Emily Durbin et al.ARTICLEJournal of Research on Adolescence2019References: 3
Sexual development entails many experiences and is a major feature of adolescence. Most relevant behavioral genetic studies, however, focus primarily on sexual behaviors associated with health risks. We took a more normative, developmental perspective by examining genetic and environmental influences on five sexual behaviors ranging from dating to pregnancy in middle (M age = 14.90 years) and late adolescence (M age = 17.85 years) in a sample of …
Internalizing Symptoms and Personality Traits Color Parental Reports of Child Temperament
Open AccessDavid A Clark, C Emily Durbin et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality2017
OBJECTIVE: Depressed parents have negatively distorted views of the personalities and behaviors of their children. Our goal was to evaluate how other internalizing symptoms and personality traits relate to perceptions of child temperament using data from mothers and fathers as well as a novel statistical method for modeling multi-informant data. METHOD: We applied the trifactor model (Bauer et al., 2013) to data collected from the parents of 273 …
The Gender Risk–Severity Paradox for Alcohol Use Disorder From Adolescence Through Young Adulthood
Open AccessKatherine T Foster, Brian M Hicks et al.ARTICLEEmerging Adulthood2017
A large proportion of the public health costs of alcohol use disorder (AUD) can be accounted for by a small percentage of severe cases with a chronic course starting in adolescence and persisting into adulthood. However, chronicity may be a less effective marker of AUD severity in women than men due to a gender risk-severity paradox wherein comparable levels of risk exposure yield more co-occurring problems for women than men with AUD. To model t…
Interpersonal dysfunction in personality disorders: A meta-analytic review
Open AccessSylia Wilson, Majid Elyasi et al.ARTICLEPsychological Bulletin2017
Personality disorders are defined in the current psychiatric diagnostic system as pervasive, inflexible, and stable patterns of thinking, feeling, behaving, and interacting with others. Questions regarding the validity and reliability of the current personality disorder diagnoses prompted a reconceptualization of personality pathology in the most recent edition of the psychiatric diagnostic manual, in an appendix of emerging models for future stu…
Connections between preschoolers' temperament traits and social behaviors as observed in a preschool setting
Open AccessAllison E Gornik, J W Neal et al.ARTICLESocial Development2017References: 8
A growing literature has focused on the role children's temperament traits play in social behavior, but associations have traditionally been explored through informant report. We utilized a longitudinal, observational approach to (a) examine how children's traits related to their social behaviors when aggregated across the school year; (b) explore how traits and social behavior relate to children's age and sex; and (c) test how prior traits predi…

Codevelopment of preschoolers’ temperament traits and social play networks over an entire school year
J W Neal, C Emily Durbin et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality and Social…2017Cited by: 5
Children enter preschool with temperament traits that may shape or be shaped by their social interactions in the peer setting. We collected classroom observational measures of positive emotionality (PE), negative emotionality (NE), effortful control (EC), and peer social play relationships from 2 complete preschool classrooms (N = 53 children) over the course of an entire school year. Using longitudinal social network analysis, we found evidence …

Gender Differences in Young Children's Temperament Traits: Comparisons Across Observational and Parent‐Report Methods
Open AccessThomas M Olino, C Emily Durbin et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality2013
Evidence supporting the continuity between child temperament and adult personality traits is accumulating. One important indicator of continuity is the presence of reliable gender differences in traits across the lifespan. A substantial literature demonstrates gender differences on certain adult personality traits and recent meta‐analytic work on child samples suggests similar gender differences for some broad and narrow domains of temperament. H…

The structure of temperament in preschoolers: A two-stage factor analytic approach
Margaret W Dyson, Thomas M Olino et al.ARTICLEEmotion2011
The structure of temperament traits in young children has been the subject of extensive debate, with separate models proposing different trait dimensions. This research has relied almost exclusively on parent-report measures. The present study used an alternative approach, a laboratory observational measure, to explore the structure of temperament in preschoolers. A 2-stage factor analytic approach, exploratory factor analyses (n = 274) followed …

Depressive Symptoms and Relational Uncertainty as Predictors of Reassurance-Seeking and Negative Feedback-Seeking in Conversation
L K Knobloch, Lynne M Knobloch-Fedders et al.ARTICLECommunication Monographs2011Cited by: 9References: 11
Integrative interpersonal theory implies that relational uncertainty may play a role in the reassurance-seeking and negative feedback-seeking behavior of people with depressive symptoms. We sought to extend the theory by (a) documenting how individuals with depressive symptoms communicate under conditions of relational uncertainty, (b) evaluating actor and partner effects, and (c) utilizing observational measures of reassurance-seeking and negati…
