  • Classroom Quality Moderates the Association Between Sleep Problems and Self-Regulation in the Preschool Classroom

    Caroline P Hoyniak, Kathleen M Rudasill et al.ARTICLEEarly Education and Development2026

    Research Findings: Although sleep has been consistently linked with self-regulation during early childhood, few studies have examined possible risk or resilience factors that moderate this association. Classroom quality could be such a factor. The current study examined whether preschool classroom quality moderated the association between sleep in early childhood and child self-regulation in the preschool classroom. Participants included 119 chil…

  • Sleep Disturbance, Emotion Lability/Negativity, and Behavioral Difficulties in a Sample of Internationally Adopted Children

    Kristin M Aho, Morgan Daugherty et al.ARTICLEAdoption Quarterly2023References: 2

    Although internationally adopted children experience elevated sleep problems and psychosocial difficulties, little research has evaluated predictors and correlates of sleep issues in this population. The current study aims to address gaps in current research by examining associations between pre-adoptive risk, sleep disturbance, emotion lability/negativity, and internalizing and externalizing behavior in a sample of internationally adopted childr…

  • Longitudinal changes in term and preterm infant night wakings

    Open AccessMichelle Lobermeier, Amanda Hicks et al.ARTICLEInfant Mental Health Journal2023References: 39

    Changes in infant night waking during the first year of life are associated with individual (e.g., prematurity) and family (e.g., caregiver psychopathology) factors. This study examined the association between infant night waking and caregiver anxious‐depressive symptoms during the first year of life in preterm and term infants. We considered between‐person differences and within‐person changes in caregiver anxious‐depressive symptoms in relation…

  • Sustained attention across toddlerhood

    Open AccessMaureen E McQuillan, John E Bates et al.ARTICLEDevelopmental Psychology2021References: 3

    The present study examined individual differences in the development of sustained attention across toddlerhood, as well as how these individual differences related to the development of language and sleep. Toddlers (N = 314; 54% male) were assessed at 30, 36, and 42 months using multiple measures of attention, a standardized language assessment, and actigraphic measures of sleep. Toddlers were 80% White. Family socioeconomic status (SES) was calc…

  • Heterotypic continuity of inhibitory control in early childhood

    Open AccessIsaac T Petersen, John E Bates et al.ARTICLEDevelopmental Psychology2021Cited by: 2References: 5

    Inhibitory control has been widely studied in association with social and academic adjustment. However, prior studies have generally overlooked the potential heterotypic continuity of inhibitory control and how this could affect assessment and understanding of its development. In the present study, we systematically considered heterotypic continuity in four well-established measures of inhibitory control, testing two competing hypotheses: (a) the…

  • Development and Validation of the Recognizing Addictive Disorders Scale

    Meagan M Carr, Karen K Saules et al.ARTICLESubstance Use & Misuse2020

    Objective Substance use disorders and behavioral addictions commonly co-occur. However, few available self-report measures reliably and validly assess the full range of addictive conditions. The development and initial validation of a new measure—Recognizing Addictive Disorders (RADs) scale addresses a significant gap in the literature. Method: After items were generated and evaluated in Study 1, Study 2 (N = 300), applied exploratory factor anal…

  • Sleep across early childhood

    Open AccessCaroline P Hoyniak, John E Bates et al.ARTICLEJournal of Child Psychology and…2020

    BACKGROUND: Sleep is thought to be important for behavioral and cognitive development. However, much of the prior research on sleep's role in behavioral/cognitive development has relied upon self-report measures and cross-sectional designs. METHODS: The current study examined how early childhood sleep, measured actigraphically, was developmentally associated with child functioning at 54 months. Emphasis was on functioning at preschool, a crucial …

  • Recurrence Quantification for the Analysis of Coupled Processes in Aging

    Timothy R Brick, Allison Gray et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2017Cited by: 2References: 1

    With intensive longitudinal data becoming increasingly available, it is possible to examine how the processes of aging unfold. RQA and CRQA provide information about how one process may show patterns of internal repetition or echo the patterning of another process and how those characteristics may change across the process of aging

  • Measuring the development of inhibitory control

  • Trajectories of Mothers' Discipline Strategies and Interparental Conflict

    Jennifer E Lansford, Angela D Staples et al.ARTICLEJournal of Family Communication2013References: 7

    Using data collected annually when children were in kindergarten through 3 rd grade ( N = 478), this study investigated changes in mothers' use of nonharsh, harsh verbal, and physical discipline; changes in interparental conflict; and associations between changes in discipline and interparental conflict. Controlling for potential confounds, physical discipline decreased over the course of middle childhood, whereas harsh verbal and nonharsh discip…

  • Greed, Death, and Values

    Open AccessPhilip J Cozzolino, Angela D Staples et al.ARTICLEPersonality and Social Psychology…2004

    Research supporting terror management theory has shown that participants facing their death (via mortality salience) exhibit more greed than do control participants. The present research attempts to distinguish mortality salience from other forms of mortality awareness. Specifically, the authors look to reports of near-death experiences and posttraumatic growth which reveal that many people who nearly die come to view seeking wealth and possessio…
