Strengthening children's sibling relationships using an online preventive intervention program for parents
Prevention versus intervention functions of an online program to strengthen children's sibling relationships
Raising siblings is stressful
Parents' ability to manage intense emotions in the face of conflictual sibling interactions is a significant challenge that has been linked with various child and parent outcomes. With existing instruments focused on raising a single child, we lack validated instruments to assess dimensions of parental emotion regulation in the context of rearing siblings. We tested the factor structure, reliability, divergent and concurrent criterion validity of…
Forging one's identity as a twin
Little is known about how twins influence one another's development during emerging adulthood. Although the exact mechanisms that underlie sibling influence have not been firmly established, they likely encompass processes that highlight either sibling identification (e.g., seeking similarities and imitation in the service of building cohesion) or deidentification (e.g., seeking differences that distinguish themselves to reduce competition, rival…

Dynamic fluctuations in maternal cardiac vagal tone moderate moment-to-moment associations between children’s negative behavior and maternal emotional support
Our primary objective was to examine the extent to which moment-to-moment associations between preschool-aged children's behavior and maternal emotional support differed for mothers showing different levels of parasympathetic engagement. We used behavioral observations of maternal and child behavior and maternal changes in cardiac vagal tone assessed via respiratory sinus arrhythmia in 15-s intervals during a 5-min challenging puzzle task (N = 12…

Mothers’ dispositional distress reactivity as a predictor of maternal support following momentary fluctuations in children’s aversive behavior
Given that maternal support promotes healthy social and emotional development in early childhood, it is important to understand the predictors of such support, especially during emotional challenges. In this study, mothers' dispositional distress reactivity (i.e., the tendency toward experiencing distress in response to children's negative emotions and behavior) was assessed as a predictor of maternal support in a given moment when children showe…
What we learn from our sisters and brothers
Siblings have considerable influence on one another's development throughout childhood, yet most human development research has neglected sibling socialization. Through this volume, we aim to enhance our understanding of how siblings play formative roles in one another's social and emotional development. We examine the mechanisms by which children are influenced by their brothers and sisters, clarify the ways in which these mechanisms of socializ…

Shared Understanding of Parental Differential Treatment in Families
Greedy Institutions
This article focuses on how the institutional contexts of colleges and universities shape these “greedy institutions.” We look at the current social, political, and economic trends affecting all postsecondary institutions, specifically the forces that encourage “greediness.” We examine the literature on structural arenas that influence teaching in higher education, including type of institution and departmental level characteristics, considering …

Parental beliefs about managing sibling conflict
This study examined the correspondence between parents' beliefs about the most effective ways to manage sibling conflict and their responses to their children's spontaneous sibling conflicts. Eighty-eight 2-child, 2-parent families participated in 3 home sessions. Second-born children were 3-5 years old, and firstborn children were 2-4 years older. Parents' use of a particular conflict management strategy was based, in part, on their perception o…
Different Paths, Different Voices
Intergenerational Linkages
The purpose of this research was to examine whether, and in which ways, parents' early experiences with siblings relate to the quality of sibling relationships achieved by their offspring. Naturalistic observations of children interacting with their siblings, and interviews with parents provided a data base for estimating the quality of sibling relations in two generations of 56 families. Results indicated that mothers who reported negative sibli…

Becoming a sibling
The qualities of children's friendships that may promote the development of positive sibling relationships were examined. Thirty 3- to 5-year-old firstborn children whose families were expecting a 2nd child participated in longitudinal assessments of parent-child, sibling, and best-friend peer relationships. Families were studied from the last trimester of pregnancy to 14 months following the new child's birth. Peer relationship variables, partic…

Mainstreaming Gender
We discuss and analyze the problems encountered when gender materials and perspectives from a sex roles course were integrated (mainstreamed) into other sociology courses. We suggest techniques and resources to address the problems. Both the problems and the remedies are divided into two key areas of concern: subject matter and student population. The subject matter of gender lends itself readily to overpersonalization, but several techniques can…
