Sciaraffa, Mary A.; Zeanah, Paula D.; Zeanah, Charles H. – Early Childhood Education Journal, 2018
Brain development in the early years is especially susceptible to toxic stress caused by adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). According to epigenetics research, toxic stress has the capacity to physically change a child's brain and be hardwired into the child's biology via genes in the DNA. The compelling nature of the impact of early adversity…

Based on notions posited by problem behavior theory, the primary goal of the current study was to examine the possibility that adolescents who engage in NSSI are not a homogeneous group but are rather divided into 2 subgroups: (a) adolescents who exclusively engage in NSSI, and (b) adolescents who are involved in NSSI alongside other problem…

Celene E. Domitrovich; Catherine P. Bradshaw; Juliette Berg; Elise T. Pas; Kimberly Becker; Rashelle Musci; Dennis D. Embry; Nicholas Ialongo – Grantee Submission, 2016
A number of classroom-based interventions have been developed to improve social and behavioral outcomes, yet few studies have examined how these programs impact the teachers who are implementing them. Impacts on teachers may affect students, and therefore also serve as an important proximal outcome to examine. The current study draws upon data…

Nunley, Patricia L. – ProQuest LLC, 2012
At the earliest grade levels, young Black males, who have been identified by their teachers as "challenging" (in psychological terminology, exhibiting externalizing behavior), have the same disproportionate rate of school suspension and expulsion as their older counterparts (Gilliam, 2005; Lewis, Butler, Bonner, & Joubert, 2010;…
