This study investigates whether PSE is part of the pathway of MCM or an independent risk factor affecting offspring psychopathology. METHODS: Participants were 284 birth mother-child (44% male) dyads, primarily Black, low-income, enrolled at birth. Exposure to alcohol, tobacco, marijuana,…

  • Internal assets in low‐income urban adolescents from 12 to 17 years

    Open AccessMeeyoung O Min, Miyoung Yoon et al.ARTICLEJournal of Research on Adolescence2025References: 7

    Utilizing a birth cohort of primarily Black, low-income urban adolescents (N = 371), the present study investigated how internal assets might change over time with sex/gender as a moderator. Internal assets (commitment to learning, positive values, social competencies, positive identity) were assessed at ages 12, 15, and 17 via the Developmental Assets Profile. All internal asset domains decreased from 12 to 15 years in both boys and girls, excep…

  • Substance use and individual assets in urban adolescents

    INTRODUCTION: To investigate patterns of divergence in adolescent adjustment, this study examined the co-occurring patterns of adolescents' individual assets (e.g., school engagement, values) and substance use, and whether the co-occurring patterns were associated with later functioning in emerging adulthood. METHODS: Participants were 358 (54% females), predominantly African American, urban adolescents, recruited at birth for a prospective study…

  • Attitudinal Tolerance of Deviance in At-Risk Early Adolescents

    Open AccessJune‐yung Kim, Sonia Minnes et al.ARTICLEJournal of the Society for Social…2020References: 3

    Objective: Problem behavior theory hypothesizes that adolescent attitudinal tolerance of deviance (ATD) precedes health risk behaviors. We examined ATD patterns among early adolescents with prenatal drug exposure and associated the patterns with subsequent risk behaviors. The ATD patterns were further characterized by concurrent developmental contexts. Method: Participants were 306 urban adolescents (51% girls), primarily African American and of …

  • Maternal Psychological Distress and Parenting Stress After the Birth of a Very Low-Birth-Weight Infant

    Lynn T SingerARTICLEJAMA1999

    CONTEXT: Few studies document how parents adapt to the experience of a very low-birth-weight (VLBW; 36 weeks, >2500 g). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Standardized, normative self-report measures of maternal psychological distress, parenting stress, family impact, and life stressors. RESULTS: Mothers of VLBW infants (high risk, n = 122; low risk, n = 84) had more psychological distress than mothers of term infants (n=123) at 1 month (13% vs 1%; P = .003)…
