Parental Strategies for Managing Externalizing and Internalizing Behaviors in Young Children
Across cultures, how parents manage children’s problem behaviors shapes the environment for children’s development. Our study addressed the existing lack of cross-cultural comparison on parents’ strategies for addressing young children’s externalizing and internalizing-type behaviors. A total of 104 parents of preschool-aged children from the United States ( n = 50, M age = 36.24) and China ( n = 54, M age = 35.68) participated in a semi-structur…
Heterogeneity in Developmental Trajectories of Internalizing and Externalizing Symptomatology
Stress Spillover Among Mother-Adolescent Dyads in Mexican Immigrant Families
Mothers and adolescent children in Mexican immigrant families may encounter various sociocultural stressors, which may spill over into family interactions and impede each other’s internalizing symptoms based on the Family Systems Theory. Empirical evidence is needed to identify the sensitive developmental age when mothers and adolescents are most vulnerable to each other’s stressors, addressing gaps in understanding which types of sociocultural s…
Unique and interactive roles of economic stress and discrimination on heterogeneous development among Chinese American adolescents
Chinese American youth as a group are often labeled as "model minorities." Yet, this label ignores the vast heterogeneity within Chinese Americans and implies that they are immune to environmental stressors. Using an 8-year longitudinal study of 444 (54% female; initial M age = 13-year-old) Chinese American adolescents, we identified two (well- vs. poorly adjusted) concurrent and three (stably well-adjusted, improved, and risk) latent transition …
Emotion Granularity, Regulation, and Their Implications in Health
The ability to represent emotional experiences in a precise fashion with language, termed emotional granularity, is related to a number of beneficial outcomes. However, the emotion granularity construct and operationalization are rooted in the lens of so-called Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich and Democratic (WEIRD) societies that focus on emotions as a mental-state phenomena. Using evidence from multiple non-WEIRD societies, we illustrate…
Parents’ ethnotheories of the nature and causes of children’s misbehaviors
Across all cultures, parents have intuitive ideas (“ethnotheories”) of what undesirable child characteristics are as well as how to explain them. Yet there have been relatively few cross-cultural comparisons of parents’ ethnotheories about the nature and causes of child misbehavior. 108 mothers of 5-year-old children from the United States ( N = 52; M age = 5.26, SD = 0.07) and mainland China ( N = 56; M age = 5.31, SD = 0.20) were recruited to p…
Ethnic/racial discrimination, school cultural socialization, and negative affect
Daily and ethnic discriminatory experiences and cognitive control in Mexican-origin bilingual language brokers
Few studies have considered bilingualism’s impact on cognitive development within the sociolinguistic and cultural context of the immigrant communities where bilingualism is commonly practiced. In the United States, many Mexican-origin bilingual youth practice their bilingual skills by brokering (i.e. translating/interpreting between languages) for their immigrant parents who have low English proficiency. Meanwhile, these youth may also experienc…
Mexican-origin adolescents’ cumulative strengths predict baseline and longitudinal changes in self-growth outcomes
This study adopts a cultural ecological perspective to examine how cumulative effects of external transcultural and cultural strengths are related to baseline and changes in three markers of Mexican-origin adolescents' self-growth (i.e., resilience, life meaning, and discipline). Using a three-wave longitudinal data set (5 years) of 604 adolescents, cumulative strengths (CS) was calculated, and growth curve analyses showed a similar pattern of fi…
Self-regulation and Psychopathology in Young Children
Simultaneous acquisition of English and Chinese impacts children’s reliance on vocabulary, morphological and phonological awareness for reading in English
The developmental process of reading acquisition is frequently conceptualized as a self-organizing mental network consisting of lexico-semantic, phonological and orthographical components. The developmental nature of this network varies across languages and is known to impact second language learners of typologically different languages. Yet, it remains largely unknown whether such cross-linguistic differences interact within young bilingual lear…
Early socialization of hostile attribution bias
The goal of this study was to examine child and parent predictors of children's hostile attribution bias (HAB) with a particular focus on exploring the associations between parents' early attribution of child misbehavior and children's HAB in the transition to school-age. Participants were 241 children (118 girls) of middle-income families who were at risk for school-age conduct problems. Multi-method, multi-informant data were collected on mater…
