Clustering of adolescents’ health behaviors before and during the Covid-19 pandemic: Examining transitions and the role of demographics and parental health behaviors
Adolescents at-risk for unhealthy behaviors may remain so during the pandemic. Adolescent demographics and parental (food intake) behaviors are relevant to consider as forms of screening adolescents who may be more at risk to show health-risk behaviors. Larger studies are needed to corroborate these findings
Idiographic personality networks: Stability, variability and when they become problematic
Idiographic personality networks are gaining popularity for modeling individual differences, but their validity requires stability, which seems contradicted by theory and empirics. This study employs conventional idiographic network analysis to evaluate inter- and intra-individual variation in youngsters with a mild intellectual disability (N = 26; Mage=23) who completed 60 daily self-reports. Results show high between-person heterogeneity in net…

Proactive Telephone Smoking Cessation Counseling Tailored to Parents: Results of a Randomized Controlled Effectiveness Trial
A recent Dutch efficacy trial showed the efficacy of a telephone smoking cessation counseling tailored to smoking parents. Currently, it is unknown whether such telephone counseling would be effective under more real-world conditions. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of parent-tailored telephone smoking cessation counseling in a two-arm randomized controlled effectiveness trial and whether the effectiveness depended on the recruitmen…
The family and peer origins of coercion within adult romantic relationships: A longitudinal multimethod study across relationships contexts
Using coercive strategies to resolve conflicts with romantic partners has toxic effects on relationships. Coercion predicts relationship dissatisfaction, instability, and intimate partner violence. The early adult romantic relationships model hypothesizes that such strategies first emerge within the family and continue to affect romantic relationships into adulthood. We tested whether adolescent antisocial behaviors and deviancy training with pee…
Evaluation and Implementation of a Proactive Telephone Smoking Cessation Counseling for Parents: A Study Protocol of an Effectiveness Implementation Hybrid Design
Detrimental health consequences of smoking for both parents and children stress the importance for parents to quit. A Dutch efficacy trial supported the efficacy of proactive telephone counseling on parents. Still, how this program would function in "real world" conditions and how parents could be optimally reached is unclear. Therefore, this study will use an innovative method to examine the recruitment success of two implementation approaches (…
The Co-Development of Parenting Stress and Childhood Internalizing and Externalizing Problems
Although the detrimental influence of parenting stress on child problem behavior is well established, it remains unknown how these constructs affect each other over time. In accordance with a transactional model, this study investigates how the development of internalizing and externalizing problems is related to the development of parenting stress in children aged 4-9. Mothers of 1582 children participated in three one-year interval data waves. …
The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire: Psychometric properties of the parent and teacher version in children aged 4–7
This study is the first to show SDQ scores are predictively valid, attesting to the feasibility of the SDQ as a screening instrument. Future research into predictive validity of the SDQ is warranted
Country-level and individual correlates of overweight and obesity among primary school children: A cross-sectional study in seven European countries
Prevalence rates of overweight and obesity in school children is still high, especially in Eastern regions, with some socio-demographic factors and life-styles associated with being overweight. It is also in the Eastern region itself where better macro-economic indicators are related with lower rates of childhood overweight. This represents a public health concern that deserves special attention in those countries undertaking economic and politic…
Stability of post-treatment functioning after residential treatment: The perceptions of parents and adolescents
School-based promotion of cessation support: Reach of proactive mailings and acceptability of treatment in smoking parents recruited into cessation support through primary schools
The protocol for this study is registered with the Netherlands Trial Register NTR2707

Psychometric Properties of the Parent and Teacher Versions of the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire for 4- to 12-Year-Olds: A Review
Since its development, the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) has been widely used in both research and practice. The SDQ screens for positive and negative psychological attributes. This review aims to provide an overview of the psychometric properties of the SDQ for 4- to 12-year-olds. Results from 48 studies (N = 131,223) on reliability and validity of the parent and teacher SDQ are summarized quantitatively and descriptively. Inter…
