An exploratory evaluation of universal social-emotional learning programs delivered during elementary school to Australian students
Whole-school Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) programs demonstrate promise as an avenue for universally and equitably fostering student social and emotional wellbeing. This study used population data collected in 2015 to examine the association of Australian elementary (primary) school-based SEL programs with students' late middle childhood functioning (aged 11-12 years) on the five social-emotional competencies defined by the Collaborative for Ac…
Promoting effective transitions
BACKGROUND: The transition from primary to secondary school presents a challenging developmental milestone which often marks a decline in academic performance. Social-emotional skills are recognized as fundamental to academic success but longitudinal research is needed to determine the extent of their association over this transition period. AIM: This study sought to determine the association between self-reported social-emotional competencies of…
Conditions of Birth and Early Childhood Developmental Risk for Mental Disorders
Distinct classes of children in the general population are at increased odds of later mental illness and other adverse outcomes according to patterns of early childhood developmental vulnerability. If certain risk factors known at the time of birth are reliably associated with membership in early childhood risk classes, then preventative interventions could be initiated in the earliest years of life. Associations between 14 factors known at the t…
Children’s contact with police as a victim, person of interest and witness in New South Wales, Australia
Contact with the police, as the first contact with the criminal justice system for young people and children, may signify individuals who are vulnerable to later adverse social and health outcomes. However, little is known about how often children have contact with police or for what reason. In this paper, we provide a demographic profile of the prevalence and reasons for police contact among a representative, longitudinal, population-based sampl…
Gender and the intergenerational transmission of antisocial behavior
Parental offending and children’s emergency department presentations in New South Wales, Australia
Objectives Children whose parents have a history of criminal offending may be at risk of higher rates of emergency department (ED) presentation, along with other adverse health outcomes. We used data from a large, population-based record linkage project to examine the association between maternal and paternal criminal offending and the incidence of ED presentations among child offspring. Methods Data for 72 772 children with linked parental recor…
The persistence of early childhood physical aggression
Clinical Home Visitation for Children With Externalizing Disorders
Clinical home visitation (CHV) was empirically tested in a randomized study to determine if it could reduce a child's externalizing behaviors while alleviating parental stress. Clinic-referred waitlisted young children (n = 33) with symptoms suggesting an externalizing disorder were randomly offered a CHV intervention composed of a developmentally guided dyadic-centered syllabus. Families were recruited to participate in an experimental (n = 21) …
