Associations of Sleep, Screen Time, and Extracurricular Activities With Cognitive Development: A Longitudinal Study
INTRODUCTION: Adolescence is a sensitive period typified by marked cognitive and neural development, during which modifiable lifestyle factors may be particularly relevant. However, longitudinal associations of modifiable lifestyle factors-including sleep, screen time, and extracurricular activities-with cognitive development over time remain to be investigated, leaving the directionality of these relationships unclear. METHODS: We used baseline …
The role of pubertal development in the association between trauma and internalising symptoms in female youth
BACKGROUND: Exposure to trauma in childhood is associated with an increased risk for internalising symptoms. Alterations in pubertal development has been proposed as a potential mechanism underpinning this association. However, longitudinal studies, which are needed to examine pubertal development over time, are scarce. The goal of this pre-registered study was to examine how trauma exposure shapes the timing and tempo of pubertal development, an…
Annual Research Review: Associations of socioeconomic status with cognitive function, language ability, and academic achievement in youth: a systematic review of mechanisms and protective factors
Low socioeconomic status (SES) is negatively associated with children's cognitive and academic performance, leading to long‐term educational and economic disparities. In particular, SES is a powerful predictor of executive function (EF), language ability, and academic achievement. Despite extensive research documenting SES‐related differences in these domains, our understanding of the mechanisms underlying these associations and factors that may …
Environmental contributions to cognitive development: The role of cognitive stimulation
Cognitive stimulation is the availability of enriching environmental inputs that facilitate learning opportunities for children. • While cognitive stimulation plays an important role in children’s cognitive development, it remains a relatively understudied topic. • This review provides an overview of the role of cognitive stimulation in children’s brain and cognitive development. • We present evidence from intervention studies which demonstrates …
