Intergenerational conflict, contact with biological parents, and child functioning in kinship caregiver families
Over time, federal child welfare policy has shaped a preference for states to make every effort to place children with kinship caregivers before non-kin, foster caregivers. The current study focuses on two aspects of out-of-home care that past research indicates differ between kin and non-kin foster care arrangements: frequency of conflict between caregivers and biological parents (higher among kin foster care) and children’s contact with biologi…

The impact of aging out of WIC on food security in households with children
The Child and Adult Care Food Program and Food Insecurity
The Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) provides cash reimbursement to family day care, child-care centers, homeless shelters, and after-school programs for meals and snacks served to children. Despite young children’s known vulnerability to fluctuations in nutritional intake, prior literature has largely neglected the contributions of the CACFP to reducing household food insecurity. Using data from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study–Bi…
Implications of Overweight Onset and Persistence for Social and Behavioral Development Between Kindergarten Entry and Third Grade
The current study examines the social and behavioral development of school-age children with different histories of overweight onset. Eight thousand children from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study–Kindergarten Cohort (ECLS-K) participated. Three groups of children were identified for analysis: (1) those who were persistently overweight from kindergarten and/or first grade through third grade; (2) those who were overweight only at third grade…

Household, Parent, and Child Contributions to Childhood Obesity
Ongoing increases in adult and child obesity have become a serious public health concern. The current study of 65 parent‐child pairs uses parent‐completed surveys and child Body Mass Index (BMI) to portray the potential family processes that put children at risk and to illustrate the household environment, parenting beliefs, and child characteristics of obese and non‐obese children. Results suggest that efforts to curb childhood obesity should ad…
Coparenting during the Child's 2nd Year
New parenthood calls for husbands and wives to work together, coordinate attitudes and beliefs, and to respect, and perhaps negotiate between, one another's unique ideas about raising children. The contribution of such marital processes to parent-child relationships is highlighted by more than 2 decades of research examining the interrelation of marriage, parenting, and child development (Gable, Belsky, & Crnic, 1992). Presently, it is recognized…
