Gosselin, Julie; Romano, Elisa; Bell, Tessa; Babchishin, Lyzon; Hudon-ven der Buhs, Isabelle; Gagné, Annie; Gosselin, Natasha – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2014

This article begins to fill this gap in the literature by providing a current and detailed portrait of family…

To test the extent that having an imaginary companion in middle school is associated with positive or negative outcomes, an ethnically diverse…
