Is sexism associated with the use of relational aggression by young adults? The moderating effect of gender
Open AccessMarion Chatelois, Stéphanie Boutin et al.ARTICLEJournal of Social and Personal…2026References: 67
Relational aggression refers to behaviors intended to harm a target’s social relationships either in response to a threat (reactive form) or with an ulterior motive (proactive form). The use of relational aggression is associated with internalizing symptoms such as depression, anxiety, and somatic complaints, as well as externalizing problems including conduct disorder symptoms, attention problems and oppositional defiant disorder symptoms (Murra…
Childhood conduct problems and adolescent sexual harassment victimization
Open AccessMarie‐Louise Bolduc, Marie-Louise Bolduc et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2025
Sexual harassment victimization is prospectively associated with poorer mental health, accounting for other forms of victimization. To better understand the link between childhood conduct problems and vulnerability for sexual harassment, the three objectives of this study were to (1) examine the links between childhood conduct problems and sexual harassment victimization during early adulthood; (2) identify the mediating role of common developmen…

Associations between externalizing behavior problems and risky sexual behaviors in adolescence
Open AccessDanyka Therriault, Jean-Pascal Lemelin et al.ARTICLEJournal of Adolescence2024
INTRODUCTION: Risky sexual behaviors in adolescence are associated with negative health and psychological functioning outcomes. Although the association between behavior problems and risky sexual behaviors is well established, addressing these problems requires understanding the mechanisms that help explain this association. Adolescent attachment, while related to risky sexual behavior, has not been extensively explored as an outcome of childhood…
When we go to ask for help, they don't understand how to help us
Open AccessShayla Chilliak, Alexa Martin-Storey et al.ARTICLEPsychology in the Schools2024
Gender and, to a lesser extent, sexual identity, are relevant factors in understanding variance in the prevalence, consequences, and treatment of conduct problems. The current study uses thematic analysis to explore how youth with early‐onset conduct problems and extensive histories of school‐based service use perceive gender and sexuality as impacting their service use experiences. Qualitative analysis of interviews with 41 youth (17–21 years ol…
Child temperament and trajectories of student–teacher relationships quality
Open AccessElizabeth Harvey, Michèle Déry et al.ARTICLEChild Development2024
This study aimed to examine the associations between child temperament and trajectories of the three dimensions of the student–teacher relationship (Closeness, Conflict, and Dependency) during elementary school. Latent class growth analyses conducted among 744 French-Canadian students recruited between 2008 and 2010 (46.8% girls; M age = 8.39; 90.9% White; 49.7% with externalizing behavior problems) revealed four Closeness trajectories and three …
Peer attachment in adolescence
Open AccessDanyka Therriault, Jean-Pascal Lemelin et al.ARTICLESocial Development2024References: 6
The quality of peer attachment in adolescence is an important determinant of psychosocial adjustment. To date, few clear conclusions can be drawn about the most important factors associated with the quality of peer attachment. This study aimed to identify the most important individual and relational factors associated with peer attachment quality, and to establish their relative contribution. Early adolescents ( N = 634, 45.7% girls), 11.29 years…
Perceptions of Service Efficacy Among Young Adults with Childhood Histories of Conduct Problems
Open AccessAmanda Paniconi, Alexa Martin-Storey et al.ARTICLEJournal of Adolescent Research2024References: 4
Services developed to address conduct problems in school contexts show limited efficacy. The current study examined how young adults with childhood histories of conduct problems retrospectively understood service efficacy, inefficacy, and what suggestions they had for service improvement. Participants were 41 young adults from Québec (17-21 years old; 53.7% women; 78% white; 77% below the low-income cut-off for single-person households) who had r…
Sexual Minority Status and Academic Achievement During the Transition to Adolescence Among Youth With Childhood Conduct Problems
Open AccessAlexa Martin-Storey, Gabrielle Garon-Carrier et al.ARTICLEYouth & Society2024References: 62
Youth with conduct problems have poorer academic outcomes than their typically developing peers. The objective of the current study was to examine how sexual minority status was associated with trajectories of teacher-rated mathematics and language arts (i.e., reading and writing) achievement in seven consecutive years across the transition to adolescence among youth with childhood histories of conduct problems ( N = 383). Sexual minority status …

Clinicians should be aware that childhood CP already predicts increased medical service use in elementary school. Issues specific to different contexts in which injuries might occur and sex differences are discussed
Impacts of psychopathic traits dimensions on the development of indirect aggression from childhood to adolescence
Stéphanie Boutin, Vincent Bégin et al.ARTICLEDevelopmental Psychology2023Cited by: 1
Children who show elevated levels of indirect aggression (IA) from childhood to adolescence are at increased risks of experiencing detrimental outcomes. Some studies suggest that psychopathic traits could act as a predisposing vulnerability in the development of IA, but the contributions of all three dimensions of psychopathic traits in explaining developmental trajectories of IA from childhood to adolescence remain unclear. This study aimed to d…

Self and parent‐reported sleep problems of adolescents with childhood conduct problems and comorbid psychological problems
Open AccessMelina Tomasiello, Caroline E Temcheff et al.ARTICLEJournal of Adolescence2021
INTRODUCTION: Childhood conduct problems (CP) are characterized by maladaptive externalizing behaviors and are linked with poor sleep. CP are highly comorbid with other psychological problems, including attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder and depression, which are also associated with disturbed sleep. The present study examined if childhood CP and comorbid depressive and/or attentional-hyperactivity problems were prospectively associated wit…
School dropout
Open AccessMarianne Engelbrecht Lau, Caroline E Temcheff et al.ARTICLEPsychology in the Schools2021
School dropout can be an ongoing process of academic failure and disengagement starting as early as elementary school. Given the importance of early identification of risk factors, the present study examines (a) whether early conduct problems and depressive symptoms predict a higher risk of school dropout, (b) whether depressive symptoms moderate the association between conduct problems and risk of school dropout, and (c) the sex differences in t…

Exploring childhood temperament as a moderator of the association between adolescent sexual minority status and internalizing and externalizing behavior problems
Open AccessAlexa Martin-Storey, Alexa Martin‐Storey et al.ARTICLEJournal of Adolescence2020
INTRODUCTION: Sexual minority youth experience worse mental health compared to their heterosexual peers, reflecting the consequences of sexual minority-based stigma. Previous research has focused on contextual variation to understand variability within this vulnerability. Childhood temperament factors such as negative affect, effortful control and surgency/extraversion are important for understanding differential susceptibility to environmental s…
The longitudinal association between externalizing and internalizing problems
Stéphanie Boutin, Victoria Roy et al.ARTICLEDevelopmental Psychology2020Cited by: 2References: 3
The Dual Failure Model suggests that peer victimization (social failure) and academic difficulties (academic failure) mediate the association between externalizing and later internalizing problems. The present study sought to better understand why children with externalizing problems develop later internalizing problems by testing the Dual Failure Model using a sample of 744 children (aged 6 to 10 at Time 1 [T1]), of whom 434 (44.7% girls) presen…
