Survey data were used to examine whether youth engagement in positive relationships with adult staff in youth programs contributed to the development of youth voice and influenced youth's perception of the benefits of program participation.
This study examined the link between maternal emotion regulation (ER) and emotion parenting behaviors and child ER, particularly emphasizing the previously understudied potential associations between mothers' ER and concurrent emotion parenting behaviors.
Mother-child dyads participated in a self-report and observational study examining the associations between mothers' emotional regulation, parenting behaviors, and children's emotion regulation. Observed maternal emotion regulation was negatively associated with unsupportive parenting.
The association among mothers', fathers', and infants' risk and cognitive and social behaviors at 24 months was examined using structural equation modeling and data on 4,200 on toddlers and their parents from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, Birth Cohort.
The families of nationally-representative children born in the United States in 2001 were surveyed, interviewed, and observed at 4 time points from birth to kindergarten entry to examine the influence of maternal, paternal, and child risk factors (poverty, unemployment, ability to speak English,
Relationships between infant negative reactivity and self-regulation, parenting self-efficacy, and child weight outcomes were examined. Greater observed negative reactivity predicted more child weight gain when mothers had lower parenting self-efficacy.
A sample of mother-infant dyads were assessed several times in the child's first three years of life to examine the relationships among infant negative reactivity (expression of negative emotions), self-regulation, parenting self-efficacy (belief in one's parenting ability), and child w
