Hong, Jun Sung; Lee, Jungup; Caravita, Simona C; Kim, Sei Eun; Peguero, Anthony A – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2022
The current study examines the association between risk behaviors and victimization and race-based victimization amongst U.S.-born and foreign-born Asian, Black, and Latinx adolescents. Data were derived from the U.S. subset of the 2009-2010 Health Behavior in School-aged Children study. Samples include 662 Asian, 2413 Black, and 3188 Latinx…

Bornstein, Marc H.; Yu, Jing; Putnick, Diane L. – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2022
This study coordinates moral value development in adolescence, parenting style, and gender with issues of stability and specificity. The primary research question asked whether parenting styles of mothers and fathers influence the development of adolescent moral values, and secondary research questions asked whether adolescent moral values were…

Jiang, Qi; Li, Qin – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2022
The association of overweight/obesity, and central obesity with thiocyanate (SCN), perchlorate (CIO), and nitrate (NO) in childhood and adolescence is unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to explore this association in 4447 participants comprising children and adolescents (aged 6-19 years) using data from the United States National Health and…

Ugarte, Elisa; Johnson, Lisa E.; Robins, Richard W.; Guyer, Amanda E.; Hastings, Paul D. – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2022
The experience of poverty embodies complex, multidimensional stressors that may adversely affect physiological and psychological domains of functioning. Compounded by racial/ethnic discrimination, the financial aspect of family poverty typically coincides with additional social and physical environmental risks such as pollution exposure, housing…

Betanzos-Robledo, Larissa; Téllez-Rojo, Martha M.; Lamadrid-Figueroa, Hector; Roldan-Valadez, Ernesto; Peterson, Karen E.; Jansen, Erica C.; Basu, Nil; Cantoral, Alejandra – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2022
Introduction: Heavy metals such as Lead (Pb) and Mercury (Hg) can affect adipose tissue mass and function. Considering the high prevalence of exposure to heavy metals and obesity in Mexico, we aim to examine if exposure to Pb and Hg in adolescence can modify how fat is accumulated in early adulthood. Methods: This study included 100 participants…

Miller, Jonas G.; Buthmann, Jessica L.; Gotlib, Ian H. – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2022
Exposure to environmental pollutants has been associated with cellular aging in children and adolescents. Individuals may vary, however, in their sensitivity or vulnerability to the effects of environmental pollutants. Larger hippocampal volume has emerged as a potential index of increased sensitivity to social contexts. In exploratory analyses…

Bastien, Kevin; Muckle, Gina; Ayotte, Pierre; Courtemanche, Yohann; Dodge, Neil C.; Jacobson, Joseph L.; Jacobson, Sandra W.; Saint-Amour, Dave – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2022
Inuit communities in Northern Quebec (Canada) are exposed to environmental contaminants, particularly to mercury, lead and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Previous studies reported adverse associations between these neurotoxicants and memory performance. Here we aimed to determine the associations of pre- and postnatal exposures to mercury, lead…

Schipper, Neele; Koglin, Ute – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2021
The present study explores moral identity, moral emotion attribution, moral responsibility, acceptability, and moral decisions in adolescents. We hypothesized that moral identity predicts moral decisions in adolescents. Furthermore, we hypothesized that moral emotions mediate the relationship between moral identity and moral decisions and moral…

Guignard, Jacques-Henri; Bacro, Fabien; Guimard, Philippe – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2021
Intellectual giftedness is commonly associated with a high level of intellectual functioning, an identification process whereby individuals are labeled as "gifted," and adjustments in schools such as grade skipping. During adolescence, all these factors are prone to reduce peer connectedness and school life satisfaction. The aim of the…

Fryt, Joanna; Szczygiel, Monika; Duell, Natasha – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2021
Despite empirical and epidemiological research indicating that risk taking propensity increases across adolescence, it is unknown whether this is true for positive risk taking. Additionally, adolescents' decisions are heavily influenced by their social environment, but it is unclear to what extent social influences are associated with positive…

Huang, Chuan-Yung; Su, Hui; Cheng, Siew-May; Tan, Chee-Seng – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2021
This study examined the effects of group art therapy on self-concept and peer relationships among adolescents using a mixed-method approach. Twelve recruited adolescents from a high school in Northern Taiwan attended weekly 2-h group art therapy sessions for 8 weeks. Through a discovery-oriented approach incorporating focus group interviews and…

Imai, Junko; Sasayama, Daimei; Kuge, Rie; Honda, Hideo; Washizuka, Shinsuke – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2021
The present study examined how maltreatment experience was associated with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms in children under institutional care. The key caregivers of children and adolescents aged 6 to 18 years who were under institutional care in Nagano prefecture, Japan were asked to…

Rights, Jason D.; Sterba, Sonya K. – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2021
Developmental researchers commonly utilize multilevel models (MLMs) to describe and predict individual differences in change over time. In such growth model applications, researchers have been widely encouraged to supplement reporting of statistical significance with measures of effect size, such as R-squareds ("R[superscript 2]") that…

Serang, Sarfaraz – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2021
Longitudinal research is often interested in identifying correlates of heterogeneity in change. This paper compares three approaches for doing so: the mixed-effects model (latent growth curve model), the growth mixture model, and structural equation model trees. Each method is described, with special focus given to how each structures…

Yan, Jinjin; Sim, Lester; Schwartz, Seth J.; Shen, Yishan; Parra-Medina, Deborah; Kim, Su Yeong – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2021
Prior studies investigating the association between acculturation and adolescent adjustment have often focused on specific acculturation domains rather than examining these domains collectively in a profile typology. Here, we investigate stability and change patterns in Mexican American adolescent acculturation profiles over time, using a two-wave…
