What does creativity look like in preschool? A multi-method examination of unity and diversity in preschoolers’ creativity
The Dysregulation Profile and Substance Use: Investigating Their Co-Variation From Adolescence to Emerging Adulthood
Children and youth with the Dysregulation Profile (DP) experience marked difficulties regulating cognition, affect, and behavior. Although these impairments are known to have lasting effects into adulthood, less is understood about how dysregulation changes during the transition from adolescence to emerging adulthood. Dysregulation has also been linked to increased risk for substance use disorder, yet its relationship with substance use during th…

Distress-prone personality traits, mental well-being, and academic engagement among emerging adults across five Canadian universities
The adolescent dysregulation profile and its association with educational, occupational, and substance use outcomes in emerging adulthood
The dysregulation profile (DP) in youth is characterized by severe emotional, cognitive, and behavioral dysregulation and is associated with an increased risk for psychiatric disorders. Adolescent self-regulation has important implications for adulthood outcomes, yet this association is understudied in the context of the DP in emerging adults. Using a Canadian adolescent sample ( N = 662; M age = 15.52), a dimensional approach to the DP was taken…
Does being defiant and irritable take a toll on physical health? Examining the covariation between symptoms of physical health and oppositional defiance across adolescence to young adulthood
Objectives. While oppositional defiance is often considered a childhood behavioural problem, the negative impact of symptoms on relationships and emotional wellbeing may endure well into young adulthood and can affect overall physical health. However, little is known about the co - occurrence of oppositional defiance symptoms (ODS) and changes in physical health functioning, particularly during the transition to young adulthood. This study examin…

or exacerbated depending on the degree of environmental pressures that affect risk traits (Caye et al., 2017).These environmental pressures are themselves expected to change across the life course, which may explain the apparent late-onset of symptoms and heterogeneity in trajectories.Similarly, the Life Transition Model of ADHD suggests that the waxing and waning of symptoms and severity of impairment depends on the balance between the level of …
Longitudinal trajectories of romantic relational victimization and associations with mastery across adolescence to young adulthood
Relational forms of romantic victimization characterized by attempts to ignore, exclude, or covertly manipulate a romantic partner is an understudied and often overlooked form of intimate partner violence. While cross sectional research demonstrates associations with mental health difficulties, longitudinal patterns of romantic relational victimization (RRV) independent of physical forms of aggression have received relatively less attention, part…
Personality Traits and Links between Bullying, Emotional Distress, and Substance Use among Emerging Adults
Socially responsible children: A link between school climate and aggression and victimization
Positive perceptions of school climate are associated with lower frequency of peer victimization and aggression in children. Understanding how school climate influences aggression and victimization is essential to guiding school-level interventions to enhance character strengths such as social responsibility. In this short-term longitudinal study, we test a theoretical model arguing that children’s social responsibility mediates the links between…
Trajectories of peer victimization in elementary school children: Associations with changes in internalizing, externalizing, social competence, and school climate
The current study examines the developmental changes (internalizing and externalizing symptoms, social competence, and experiences of school climate) in children who follow distinct trajectories of peer victimization in a sample of elementary school children across 2 years. Data were from children, and their parents and teachers, in Grades 1–3 followed across five waves. Latent class analyses revealed four distinct victimization trajectory groups…
Pathways to romantic relational aggression through adolescent peer aggression and heavy episodic drinking
Adolescent peer aggression is a well-established correlate of romantic relational aggression; however, the mechanisms underlying this association are unclear. Heavy episodic drinking (or "binge" alcohol use) was examined as both a prior and concurrent mediator of this link in a sample of 282 12-18 year old interviewed four times over 6 years. Path analyses indicated that early peer relational and physical aggression each uniquely predicted later …
Enhancing Social Responsibility and Prosocial Leadership to Prevent Aggression, Peer Victimization, and Emotional Problems in Elementary School Children
Testing the theories that form the basis of prevention programs can enhance our understanding of behavioral change and inform the development, coordination, and adaptation of prevention programs. However, theories of change showing the linkages from intervention program components to risk or protective factors to desired outcomes across time are rarely specified or tested. In this 2‐year longitudinal study, we test the theory that increases in tw…
Planning for Sustainability of an Evidence‐Based Mental Health Promotion Program in Canadian Elementary Schools
Substantial research illuminates many factors effecting the implementation of evidence‐based mental health promotion programs in schools; however, research on how schools plan for sustaining their investments in these programs is limited. In this qualitative study, we elicited descriptions of opportunities and challenges for sustainability. We interviewed 24 individuals from schools involved in a longitudinal, qualitative research project that fo…
Multicomponent programs for reducing peer victimization in early elementary school: A longitudinal evaluation of the Wits Primary Program
Past research demonstrates the promise of multicomponent programs in reducing peer victimization and bullying in older elementary and middle school children, however little research focuses on young children. The current study examines the effectiveness of the WITS Primary program on trajectories of victimization and social responsibility in children in Grades 1 to 3 (n=830). A quasi-experimental design is used to compare schools with well-establ…
