Heather L. Price; Rachel Cantin; Angela D. Evans – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2025
Despite considerable interest in children's ability to provide temporal information, there remain many unanswered questions about what children can provide and how to elicit this information. In Study 1, children (N = 147, aged 5 to 10 years) participated in an activity session. Either shortly after or 1 day later, children completed an interview…

Engaging in fluent conversation is a surprisingly complex task that requires interlocutors to promptly respond to each other in a way that is appropriate to the social context. In this study, we disentangled different dimensions of turn-taking by investigating how the dynamics of child-adult interactions changed according to the activity…

Laura Wagner; Rachael Frush Holt – Journal of Child Language, 2025
We investigated older children's (7-12 years) ability to comprehend "before" and "after" sentences. Results found that three factors that influence pre-school aged children's learning of these words continues to influence older children's comprehension. Specifically, children's accuracy is improved when the events can be…

Amy A. Stango; Elbert Q. Blakely; Rebekah Gast; Marisely Pacheco Orta – Education and Treatment of Children, 2025
Sensory-based interventions are commonly utilized by pediatric occupational therapy practitioners when working with children with disabilities. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of fixed-time breaks with access to sensory stimuli on behavior that interfered with participation in pediatric occupational therapy sessions. Two boys…

Alannah Hahn; Alexander Winkler; Christiane Hermann – Assessment for Effective Intervention, 2025
Childhood stress affects physical and mental health, making its proper assessment crucial. While several stress questionnaires for youth are available, their psychometric quality is questionable. Our aim was to develop a brief, age-appropriate questionnaire to measure current stress. Two-hundred thirty German children (6-17 years) completed the…

Christine Coughlin; Athula Pudhiyidath; Hannah E. Roome; Nicole L. Varga; Kim V. Nguyen; Alison R. Preston – Developmental Science, 2024
Adults remember items with shared contexts as occurring closer in time to one another than those associated with different contexts, even when their objective temporal distance is fixed. Such temporal memory biases are thought to reflect within-event integration and between-event differentiation processes that organize events according to their…

Tecwyn, Emma C.; Bechlivanidis, Christos; Lagnado, David A.; Hoerl, Christoph; Lorimer, Sara; Blakey, Emma; McCormack, Teresa; Buehner, Marc J. – Developmental Psychology, 2020
Although it has long been known that time is a cue to causation, recent work with adults has demonstrated that causality can also influence the experience of time. In "causal reordering" (Bechlivanidis & Lagnado, 2013, 2016) adults tend to report the causally consistent order of events rather than the correct temporal order. However,…

Kelsey E. Davison; Talia Liu; Rebecca M. Belisle; Tyler K. Perrachione; Zhenghan Qi; John D. E. Gabrieli; Helen Tager-Flusberg; Jennifer Zuk – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2025
Purpose: Converging research suggests that speech timing, including altered rate and pausing when speaking, can distinguish autistic individuals from nonautistic peers. Although speech timing can impact effective social communication, it remains unclear what mechanisms underlie individual differences in speech timing in autism. Method: The present…

Rattat, Anne-Claire; Chevalier, Nicolas – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2020
The present study investigated the role of executive functions in the development of two aspects of timing: temporal reproduction and comparison. Children aged 7 and 10 years and young adults were asked to either reproduce target durations (i.e., reproduction task) or judge the similarity of two target durations (i.e., comparison task). These…

Rupal Parekh; Margaret Lloyd Sieger; Caitlin Elsaesser; Rebecca Mauldin; Lukas Champagne – Child & Youth Care Forum, 2024
Background: Previous literature suggests that children removed from home due to parental substance use disorder (SUD) and placed with older adult foster parents are more likely to achieve permanency than children placed with younger foster parents; however, little, if any, literature has examined this trend across racial identities. Objective: The…

Gillian Francey; Kate Cain – Journal of Child Language, 2023
We examined the influence of the lexical and grammatical aspect of events on pronoun resolution in adults (18 to 23 years, N = 46), adolescents (13 to 14 years, N=66) and children (7 to 11 years, N=192). Participants were presented with 64 two-sentence stimuli: the first sentence described events with two same gender protagonists; the second began…

Nuray Akkaya; Bürge Kabukçu Basay; Özkan Urak; Ömer Basay; Füsun Sahin – Journal of Attention Disorders, 2025
Objective: The study aimed to investigate whether the fine motor skills measured by the Functional Dexterity Test (FDT) in ADHD children differ from healthy controls. The second aim was to assess the applicability of the FDT assessment method among ADHD children. Method: The FDT results as an objective assessment of hand skills were compared…

Rachele Lievore; Irene C. Mammarella – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2025
The aim of the study was to investigate mathematics anxiety in autistic school-aged boys compared with non-autistic peers, by considering the distinction between trait and state components of mathematics anxiety. The study involved 110 boys aged between 8 and 16 years old: 50 autistic participants without intellectual disability and 60…

Ashley E. Hinten; Damian Scarf; Kana Imuta – Developmental Science, 2025
There are long-held concerns regarding the impact of screen media on children's cognitive development. In particular, fast pace and fantastical events have been theorized to deplete children's cognitive resources, leading to reductions in their attention and executive functions (EF). To date, however, empirical tests of short-term effects of media…

The worldwide increase in childhood overweight and obesity underscores the need to study variables like fundamental movement skill (FMS) levels from early childhood. This study investigated the bidirectional longitudinal relationship between body mass index (BMI) and process-oriented FMSs, including locomotor skills and object control skills in…
