Sophie Bouton; Coralie Chevallier; Aminata Hallimat Cissé; Barbara Heude; Pierre O. Jacquet – Developmental Science, 2024
During human childhood, brain development and body growth compete for limited metabolic resources, resulting in a trade-off where energy allocated to brain development can decrease as body growth accelerates. This preregistered study explores the relationship between language skills, serving as a proxy for brain development, and body mass index at…

Anstey, Kaarin J.; Ehrenfeld, Lauren; Mortby, Moyra E.; Cherbuin, Nicolas; Peters, Ruth; Kiely, Kim M.; Eramudugolla, Ranmalee; Huque, Md Hamidul – Developmental Psychology, 2021
Understanding gender differences in human cognitive development may contribute to understanding the gender differences in outcomes in cognitive ageing. However, evaluation of this topic has been hindered by a lack of representative, longitudinal data from different aged cohorts measured on the same cognitive tests. Gender differences in cognitive…

Larissa Maria Troesch; Jessica Carolyn Weiner-Bühler; Alexander Grob – Language Learning and Development, 2024
A good deal of research purports that bilingualism has a positive effect on some aspects of cognitive functioning. However, this effect is not consistent, and little research examines trajectories of cognitive skill development in bilingual children. Moreover, it remains unclear whether different types of bilingualism impact how cognitive…

Alamiri, Bibi; Nelson, Charles; Fitzmaurice, Garrett M.; Murphy, Jane M.; Gilman, Stephen E. – Developmental Psychology, 2018
Neurological soft signs (NSSs), minor neurological abnormalities, have been implicated as risk factors for poor cognitive performance in small-scale studies. Here we investigate the associations between NSSs and multiple domains of cognitive performance in a large, population-based cohort and evaluate sex differences in these associations. We…

Lawson, Lauren P.; Joshi, Rucha; Barbaro, Josephine; Dissanayake, Cheryl – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2018
Relatively few studies have examined gender differences in infants and toddlers, and most focus on clinically referred samples or high-risk infant cohorts. The current study aimed to examine gender differences in early autism manifestations and cognitive development in a community-ascertained sample. In total, 46 males and 21 females with ASD were…

Research on sex-related differences in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) has been impeded by small samples. We pooled 28 datasets from 18 sites across nine European countries to examine sex differences in the ASD phenotype on the ADI-R (376 females, 1763 males) and ADOS (233 females, 1187 males). On the ADI-R, early childhood restricted and…

Ricker, Ashley A.; Corley, Robin; DeFries, John C.; Wadsworth, Sally J.; Reynolds, Chandra A. – Developmental Psychology, 2018
The present study prospectively evaluated cumulative early life perceived stress in relation to differential change in memory and perceptual speed from middle childhood to early adulthood. We aimed to identify periods of cognitive development susceptible to the effects of perceived stress among both adopted and nonadopted individuals. The sample…
