Development and Validation of the Feeling Loved Scale (FLS)
Daily stress and adolescent emotional well‐being
Adolescence is a pivotal developmental stage characterized by heightened vulnerability to stress and rapid fluctuations in emotional well-being. Using a 30-day daily diary design on 107 adolescents (11-18 years old; M age = 14.75, SD age = 1.59; 38.3% female, 58.9% male), this study examined both same-day and lagged-day associations between daily stress and adolescent emotional well-being (positive and negative affect) and explored the moderating…
Adolescent Psychological Adaptation
INTRODUCTION: Psychological need satisfaction and frustration are distinct processes that have unique effects on adolescents' psychological adaptation. Beyond their average levels, psychological satisfaction and frustration exhibit meaningful daily instability that is expected to have implications for adolescents' psychological adaptation. However, research directly examining both average levels and instability in psychological need satisfaction …

The channeling effect” of caregiver–adolescent relationship quality
Caregivers play an important role in adolescent socialization and well-being. However, the conditions under which caregivers' emotion socialization works in various stages of adolescence are not fully understood. This paper investigates (1) the association between caregiver's emotion socialization, adolescent social competence, and both subjective and psychological well-being as well as (2) the moderating effect of relationship quality on these a…
The Time-Varying Association Between Family Climate and Adolescent School Adjustment From 4th Grade to 12th Grade
Age‐varying associations of parent‐adolescent relationship and school connectedness with adolescent self‐compassion
INTRODUCTION: Parent-adolescent relationships and school connectedness are critical promotive factors for adolescent self-compassion. However, little is known about how the magnitude of the associations between these protective factors and self-compassion changes across continuous age groups and whether gender differences exist in the age-varying associations. This study aims to investigate (1) the age-varying associations of parent-adolescent re…
Romantic Love is Not Only “Romantic”
With romantic love having long been studied with a focus on the romantic component and how it is expressed, little is known about what love is as a feeling in romantic relationships from the recipient’s perspective. This study aimed to understand love as a feeling in romantic relationships by analyzing open-ended responses about what makes people feel loved by their romantic partner in a college sample of 462 undergraduates (age: M = 18.93, SD = …
What makes people feel loved? An exploratory study on core elements of love across family, romantic, and friend relationships
With research long focusing on distinct characteristics of different love types, little is known about love as a general feeling across relationship contexts. To explore the core elements of love as perceived by laypeople and whether these elements weigh differently in different relationships, grounded theory was used to analyze open‐ended responses from 468 individuals about their feeling loved in family, romantic, and friend relationships. Resu…

Does authenticity always breed mental health? A cross‐cultural comparison between the United States and China
Numerous studies on Western cultures have suggested a strong linkage between authenticity and mental health. However, little is known about whether such an association can be generalized to Eastern cultures. This study aimed to conduct a cross‐cultural comparison on the association between three dimensions of authenticity (authentic living, self‐alienation, and accepting external influence) and two factors of mental health (negative and positive)…

Investigating the skills of a preschool leader
Individuals emerge as leaders across the lifespan; however, research investigating early childhood leaders is scant. This study assessed leadership in early childhood ( N = 375) by using latent profile analysis of secondary data to examine how skill profiles are related to preschool leader scores. Skill profiles included scores for executive functioning, emotion regulation, imagination, theory of mind, vocabulary, and reception of prosocial behav…

Constellations of family closeness and adolescent friendship quality
Triadic family structures and their day‐to‐day dynamics from an adolescent perspective
Relationship structure (patterns of relative closeness among multiple family members) and dynamics (changes in relationship structures overtime) are two main aspects of family system functioning, yet empirical tests of these concepts lag behind theory. Recent growth in advanced methods for complex data structures makes it possible to empirically capture structures and dynamics within multiple family relationships overtime. To answer how relations…
Different families, diverse strengths
With studies primarily focusing on family risk factors on adolescent maladjustment, less is known about positive family processes that facilitate adolescent positive development. This study aimed to identify different configurations of parental involvement and interparental affection during early childhood from a person-centered approach and examine their long-term implications on adolescent positive functioning at age 15. In a sample of 495 2-pa…
Are emotionally intelligent people happier? A meta‐analysis of the relationship between emotional intelligence and subjective well‐being using Chinese samples
To assess an overall correlation between emotional intelligence (EI) and subjective well‐being (SWB) within Chinese culture, accounting for possible moderating factors, we conducted a meta‐analysis of 119 correlations obtained from 62 studies with a total sample size of 29,922. The results uncovered a moderately positive correlation, r = .32, 95% CI [0.29, 0.36], p r = .49, and self‐report ability EI, r = .32, than when it was measured as perform…
Family socioeconomic status and Chinese high school students’ test anxiety
It is widely documented that students with lower family socioeconomic status (SES) tend to have higher test anxiety than their peers from higher SES families. However, few studies have empirically examined the underlying mechanism whereby family SES shapes students’ test anxiety. To bridge this gap, the present study proposed and tested a serial mediation model in which family SES is associated with students’ test anxiety through the indirect eff…
Prospective Associations of Parenting and Childhood Maltreatment with Personality in Adolescent Males
This longitudinal study examines whether early experiences with caregivers between the ages of 10 and 12 are associated with later adolescent personality at age 16 using both parent and child reports. Lower positive parenting was prospectively associated with higher neuroticism and lower extraversion and conscientiousness for both parent and self-reports of personality, as well as lower openness and agreeableness by parent report. Substantiated m…
When do adolescents feel loved? A daily within-person study of parent–adolescent relations
Feeling loved has many benefits, but research is limited on how daily behaviors of one person in a relationship shape why someone else feels more or less loved from day to day. The parent-adolescent relationship is a primary source of love. We expected parent-reported warmth and conflict would explain daily fluctuations in how loved adolescents reported feeling. In a sample of 151 families (adolescent M Age = 14.60; 61.6% female) over a 21-day pe…
A Developmental Perspective on Young Adult Romantic Relationships
The Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale Short Form (Ders-SF)
Trajectories of adolescent hostile-aggressive behavior and family climate
The formation and maintenance of young adult romantic relationships that are free from violence and are characterized by love, connection, and effective problem-solving have important implications for later well-being and family functioning. In this study, we examined adolescent hostile-aggressive behavior (HAB) and family relationship quality as key individual and family level factors that may forecast later romantic relationship functioning. Gu…

Triangulation and Parent–Adolescent Relationships
This study focuses on family predictors of conflict behavior in adolescent dating relationships, drawing on family systems and socialization perspectives. Mother-adolescent, father-adolescent, and triadic relationships each was examined as predictors of adolescent dating outcomes that hold importance for developmental and prevention science (positive conflict resolution, verbal abuse, and physical abuse). We conducted a longitudinal analysis usin…
