Self-guided behavioral skills training: A public health approach to promoting nurturing care environments.

Journal of applied behavior analysis

Shea KA, Sellers TP, Smith SG, Bullock AJ.
PMID: 33016333
J Appl Behav Anal. 2020 Sep;53(4):1889-1903. doi: 10.1002/jaba.769. Epub 2020 Oct 05.

The World Health Organization identified the promotion of "Nurturing Care Environments" as a global health priority. Responsive caregiving, 1 of 5 domains describing nurturing care, is critical for healthy child development. Relatively little research has evaluated population-level interventions aimed...

Training nonsymbolic proportional reasoning in children and its effects on their symbolic math abilities.

Cognition

Gouet C, Carvajal S, Halberda J, Peña M.
PMID: 31945678
Cognition. 2020 Apr;197:104154. doi: 10.1016/j.cognition.2019.104154. Epub 2020 Jan 13.

Our understanding of proportions can be both symbolic, as when doing calculations in school mathematics, or intuitive, as when folding a bed sheet in half. While an understanding of symbolic proportions is crucial for school mathematics, the cognitive foundations...

The validity and scalability of the Theory of Mind Scale with toddlers and preschoolers.

Psychological assessment

Hiller RM, Weber N, Young RL.
PMID: 25528165
Psychol Assess. 2014 Dec;26(4):1388-93. doi: 10.1037/a0038320.

Despite the importance of theory of mind (ToM) for typical development, there remain 2 key issues affecting our ability to draw robust conclusions. One is the continued focus on false belief as the sole measure of ToM. The second...

The early emergence and puzzling decline of relational reasoning: Effects of knowledge and search on inferring abstract concepts.

Cognition

Walker CM, Bridgers S, Gopnik A.
PMID: 27472036
Cognition. 2016 Nov;156:30-40. doi: 10.1016/j.cognition.2016.07.008. Epub 2016 Jul 26.

We explore the developmental trajectory and underlying mechanisms of abstract relational reasoning. We describe a surprising developmental pattern: Younger learners are better than older ones at inferring abstract causal relations. Walker and Gopnik (2014) demonstrated that toddlers are able...

Ethnic differences in longitudinal latent verbal profiles in the millennium cohort study.

European journal of public health

Zilanawala A, Kelly Y, Sacker A.
PMID: 27999155
Eur J Public Health. 2016 Dec;26(6):1011-1016. doi: 10.1093/eurpub/ckw184. Epub 2016 Oct 10.

BACKGROUND: Development of verbal skills during early childhood and school age years is consequential for children's educational achievement and adult outcomes. We examine ethnic differences in longitudinal latent verbal profiles and assess the contribution of family process and family...

Vulnerability and resiliency implications of .

Development and psychopathology

Nichols Lodato B, Hall J, Spencer MB.
PMID: 33752765
Dev Psychopathol. 2021 May;33(2):684-699. doi: 10.1017/S0954579420001893.

Edward Zigler's groundbreaking research on child development resulted in the historic Head Start program. It is useful to examine the theoretical implications of his work by applying a human development theoretical perspective. Phenomenological variant of ecological systems theory (PVEST)...

Inequality in early childhood: risk and protective factors for early child development.

Lancet (London, England)

Walker SP, Wachs TD, Grantham-McGregor S, Black MM, Nelson CA, Huffman SL, Baker-Henningham H, Chang SM, Hamadani JD, Lozoff B, Gardner JM, Powell CA, Rahman A, Richter L.
PMID: 21944375
Lancet. 2011 Oct 08;378(9799):1325-38. doi: 10.1016/S0140-6736(11)60555-2. Epub 2011 Sep 22.

Inequality between and within populations has origins in adverse early experiences. Developmental neuroscience shows how early biological and psychosocial experiences affect brain development. We previously identified inadequate cognitive stimulation, stunting, iodine deficiency, and iron-deficiency anaemia as key risks that...

Waste Aversion Reduces Inequity Aversion Among Chinese Children.

Child development

Zhang Z, Benozio A.
PMID: 33983637
Child Dev. 2021 Nov;92(6):2465-2477. doi: 10.1111/cdev.13586. Epub 2021 May 13.

An underlying aspect of the development of fairness is the aversion to unequal treatment toward equally deserving parties. By middle childhood, children from Western cultures are even willing to discard resources to avoid inequity. Here, a series of four...

Competency criteria and the class inclusion task: modeling judgments and justifications.

Developmental psychology

Thomas H, Horton JJ.
PMID: 9383628
Dev Psychol. 1997 Nov;33(6):1060-73. doi: 10.1037//0012-1649.33.6.1060.

Preschool age children's class inclusion task responses were modeled as mixtures of different probability distributions. The main idea: Different response strategies are equivalent to different probability distributions. A child displays cognitive strategy s if P (child uses strategy s,...

On sleep and development: recent advances and future directions.

Monographs of the Society for Research in Child Development

Lukowski AF, Bell MA.
PMID: 25704743
Monogr Soc Res Child Dev. 2015 Mar;80(1):182-95. doi: 10.1111/mono.12152.

The authors of the monograph discuss conceptual and methodological issues in the study of sleep-behavior associations, report on the advantages and disadvantages of various techniques for assessing sleep in infants and children, and suggest the importance of examining sleep-behavior...

Developmental differences in rule learning: a microgenetic analysis.

Cognitive psychology

Siegler RS, Chen Z.
PMID: 9729904
Cogn Psychol. 1998 Aug;36(3):273-310. doi: 10.1006/cogp.1998.0686.

Trial-by-trial strategy assessments and a microgenetic design were used to examine 4- and 5-year-olds' learning of rules for solving balance scale problems. The design allowed us to examine simultaneously the contribution to rule learning of distal variables (qualities and...
