Heylen, Joke; Vasey, Michael W.; Dujardin, Adinda; Vandevivere, Eva; Braet, Caroline; De Raedt, Rudi; Bosmans, Guy – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2017
Based on former research, it can be assumed that attachment relationships provide a context in which children develop both the effortful control (EC) capacity and the repertoire of responses to regulate distress. Both are important to understand children's (mal)adjustment. While the latter assumption has been supported in several studies, less is…

Poverty is a well-established risk factor for behavior problems, yet our understanding of putative family mediators during early childhood (i.e., before age 5 years) is limited. The present study investigated whether the association between poverty and behavior problems during early childhood is mediated simultaneously by perceived parenting,…

The Moderating Role of Friendship Quality on Associations between Autonomy and Adolescent Adjustment
Collibee, Charlene; LeTard, Amanda J.; Aikins, Julie Wargo – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2016
Both autonomy and friendship quality have consistently been associated with adolescent adjustment.

The present study used observational and quantitative data, as well as multiple reporters, to examine interactions…
