Direct linkSchamberger, Tamara; Schuberth, Florian; Henseler, Jörg – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2023
Research in human development often relies on composites, that is, composed variables such as indices. Their composite nature renders these variables inaccessible to conventional factor-centric psychometric validation techniques such as confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). In the context of human development research, there is currently no…

Lahat, Ayelet; Perlman, Michal; Howe, Nina; Recchia, Holly E.; Bukowski, William M.; Santo, Jonathan B.; Luo, Zhangjing; Ross, Hildy – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2023
The frequency and length of games, conflicts, and contingency sequences that took place between toddlers as they got to know one another were studied using archival data. The sample consisted of 28 unfamiliar 20- and 30-month-old toddlers (predominantly White, 16 males) who met separately with each of two other toddlers for 18 play dates. The…

Balas, Benjamin; Weigelt, Sarah; Koldewyn, Kami – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2023
Adult observers are sensitive to the configuration of facial features within a face, able to distinguish between relative differences in feature spacing, and detecting deviations from typical facial appearance. How does the representation of the typical configuration of facial features develop? While there is a great deal of work describing…

Flannery, Kaitlin M.; Bonafide, Katherine; Smith, Rhiannon L. – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2023
Friendships frequently dissolve in early adolescence, but youth may continue to encounter ex-friends in their daily lives. The current study aimed to examine how adolescents' reactions to friendship dissolutions were associated with continued exposure to the former friend both in school and online via social media. Participants were 354 middle…

Osmont, Anaïs; Cassotti, Mathieu – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2023
This research aimed to clarify whether middle adolescents' risk-taking is driven by reduced ambiguity aversion. In Study 1, we explored the development of ambiguity aversion using an adaptation of the classic Ellsberg paradox with early adolescents (10-11 years old), middle adolescents (14-16 years old), and young adults (20-25 years old). Study 2…

Palmer, Sally B.; Gönültas, Seçil; Yüksel, Ayse Sule; Argyri, Eirini K.; McGuire, Luke; Killen, Melanie; Rutland, Adam – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2023
The present study examined age-related differences in bystander reactions within the context of peer exclusion of national ingroup (British) and immigrant outgroup (Australian or Turkish) peers. The immigrant peers were from nations that varied in terms of their perceived intergroup status in Britain. Participants were British children (n = 110,…

Badenes-Ribera, Laura; Duro-García, Carmen; López-Ibáñez, Carmen; Martí-Vilar, Manuel; Sánchez-Meca, Julio – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2023
The Adult Prosocialness Behavior Scale (APBS) is most often used to measure adult prosociality. We conducted a reliability generalization meta-analysis to compute the average APBS reliability and examine the heterogeneity among reliability estimations and the influence of moderator variables. An exhaustive search identified 74 articles that…

Lu, Monica S.; Hennefield, Laura; Tillman, Rebecca; Markson, Lori – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2023
Optimism is linked to persistence and resilience in adults; however, how optimism might relate to children's evaluations of potentially challenging situations and risk-taking behaviors is unknown. This study examined the role of optimism in 4- to 8-year-old children's (N = 121) perceptions of and willingness to engage in physical activities that…

Wylie, Megan S.; De France, Kalee; Hollenstein, Tom – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2023
Adolescence is characterized by frequent emotional challenges, intense emotions, and higher levels of expressive suppression use than found in older populations. While evidence suggests that contingent expressive suppression use based on context is the most functional, it remains unclear whether adolescents use expressive suppression…

Magro, Sophia W.; Nivison, Marissa D.; Englund, Michelle M.; Roisman, Glenn I. – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2023
Prior research has demonstrated that teacher-student relationships characterized by high levels of closeness and low levels of conflict are associated with higher levels of academic achievement among children. At the same time: (a) some research suggests that the quality of teacher-student relationships in part reflects the quality of early…

Ni, Yue; Geldhof, G. John; Chen, Bin-Bin; Stawski, Robert S. – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2023
Research to date has shown longitudinal changes in conscientiousness during early and middle adolescence, but most studies have been conducted in Western countries. The present study aimed to examine the pattern of mean-level conscientiousness change at the transition into early adolescence among a Chinese sample using curve of factors (CUFFS)…

Green, Lindsey M.; Genaro, Breana G.; Ratcliff, Kizzann Ashana; Cole, Pamela M.; Ram, Nilam – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2023
Self-regulation often refers to the executive influence of cognitive resources to alter prepotent responses. The ability to engage cognitive resources as a form of executive process emerges and improves in the preschool-age years while the dominance of prepotent responses, such as emotional reactions, begins to decline from toddlerhood onward.…

Dale, Philip S.; Paul, Alexander; Rosholm, Michael; Bleses, Dorthe – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2023
Prediction from early development to later achievement has the potential to improve clinical and educational service delivery as well as to inform developmental theory. In this longitudinal study, we asked how well can educational achievement measured in the final year (Grade 9, age 15) of compulsory education--both overall and for outcomes in the…

The goal of this study was to evaluate the measurement invariance of an adapted assessment of motivations for social withdrawal ("Social Preference Scale--Revised"; SPS-R) across cultural contexts and explore associations with loneliness. Participants were a large sample of university students (N = 4,397; M[subscript age] = 20.08 years,…

Shulman, Shmuel; Yonatan-Leus, Refael; Silberberg, Ornella – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2023
Research has documented both stable and nonstable trajectories of depressive symptoms across young adulthood, but has not explored the mechanisms that might explain change in level of depressive affect over time. To explore this question, the current study draws on data from an Israeli longitudinal study of 205 young adults who reported their…
