Linda Gilmore; Monica Cuskelly – International Journal of Disability, Development and Education, 2025
There is evidence that mastery motivation contributes to developmental outcomes, both for typically developing individuals and for those with disabilities such as Down syndrome. Mastery motivation appears to be a stable trait, at least during early childhood, but research with adults has been restricted by the absence of an appropriate measure.…

In response, based on three attention networks: alerting, orienting, and executive attention, we examined the development of attention functions…

Mina Robinson Hirzel – ProQuest LLC, 2022
This dissertation presents behavioral studies that target the early syntactic representations of "wh"-movement during infancy and early childhood.

Marianna Y. Zhang; J. Nicky Sullivan; Ellen M. Markman; Steven O. Roberts – Child Development Perspectives, 2024
Across development, young children reason about why social inequities exist. However, when left to their own devices, young children might engage in "internal thinking," reasoning that the inequity is simply a justified disparity explained by features internal to social groups (e.g., genetics, intellect, abilities, values). Internal…

Elizabeth J. Erwin; Meredith Valentine; Michaella Toumazou – International Journal of Early Years Education, 2024
Young children's voices have been nearly absent in the study of belonging during the early years. In this article, we propose a more inclusive understanding about "how" to study belonging, as well as "what else" must be studied in early childhood education. The importance of conducting research "with" young children…

Clinicians report primarily using functional behavioral assessment (FBA) methods that do not include functional analyses. However, studies examining the correspondence between functional analyses and other types of FBAs have produced inconsistent results. In addition, although functional analyses are considered the gold standard, their…
