Two specific factors identified in separate lines of research are victimisation and child behavioural…

The present study examined how school-age children's communicative decisions are influenced by the situation, their social partner, and their own characteristics (gender, shyness levels, and history of peer relationships). Children (8-12 years old, N=246) imagined themselves in social scenarios (depicted through comics) and indicated the…

Kjellstrand, Jean M.; Reinke, Wendy M.; Eddy, J. Mark – Grantee Submission, 2018
Increasingly, "children of incarcerated parents" is becoming the label to describe a growing number of children with a history of parental incarceration.

Forsberg, Alicia; Blume, Christopher L.; Cowan, Nelson – Developmental Psychology, 2021
Growth in working memory capacity, the number of items kept active in mind, is thought to be an important aspect of childhood cognitive development. Here, we focused on participants' awareness of the contents of their working memory, or "meta-working memory," which seems important because people can put cognitive abilities to best use…

Attitudes of 277 5th and 6th grade males and females from four representative schools from within a district were assessed in a…
