Emotion Socialization as a Dynamic Process across Emotion Contexts
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Lougheed, Jessica P.; Brinberg, Miriam; Ram, Nilam; Hollenstein, Tom – Developmental Psychology, 2020
Emotion-related socialization behaviors that occur during parent--child interactions are dynamic. According to Eisenberg, Cumberland, and Spinrad's (1998) model, ongoing parental reactions to emotions and discussions of emotion indirectly shape children's socioemotional competence throughout childhood and adolescence. Typically developing…

Multilevel Survival Analysis: Studying the Timing of Children's Recurring Behaviors
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed

Lougheed, Jessica P.; Benson, Lizbeth; Cole, Pamela M.; Ram, Nilam – Developmental Psychology, 2019
The timing of events (e.g., how long it takes a child to exhibit a particular behavior) is often of interest in developmental science. Multilevel survival analysis (MSA) is useful for examining behavioral timing in observational studies (i.e., video recordings) of children's behavior. We illustrate how MSA can be used to answer 2 types of research…

Adolescents' Emotion System Dynamics: Network-Based Analysis of Physiological and Emotional Experience
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Yang, Xiao; Ram, Nilam; Lougheed, Jessica P.; Molenaar, Peter C. M.; Hollenstein, Tom – Developmental Psychology, 2019
An individual's emotions system can be conceived of as a synchronized, coordinated, and/or emergent combination of physiology, experience, and behavioral components. Together, the interplay among these components produce emotional experiences through coordinated excitatory positive feedback (i.e., the mutual amplification of emotion concordance)…

Age Differences in Emotion Regulation Strategy Use, Variability, and Flexibility: An Experience Sampling Approach
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Benson, Lizbeth; English, Tammy; Conroy, David E.; Pincus, Aaron L.; Gerstorf, Denis; Ram, Nilam – Developmental Psychology, 2019
Life span developmental theories suggest that as individuals age, they accumulate knowledge about how to deploy emotion regulation (ER) strategies effectively and learn how to match their ER strategy use with changes in situational demands. Using an event-contingent experience sampling design wherein 150 adults Age 18 to 89 years reported on…

Age Differences in Negative Emotional Responses to Daily Stressors Depend on Time since Event
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Scott, Stacey B.; Ram, Nilam; Smyth, Joshua M.; Almeida, David M.; Sliwinski, Martin J. – Developmental Psychology, 2017
Research on age differences in the experience of negative emotional states have produced inconsistent results, particularly when emotion is examined in the context of daily stress. Strength and vulnerability integration (SAVI; Charles, 2010) theory postulates that age differences in emotional states are contingent upon whether a stressor occurred,…

Analyzing Developmental Processes on an Individual Level Using Nonstationary Time Series Modeling
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Molenaar, Peter C. M.; Sinclair, Katerina O.; Rovine, Michael J.; Ram, Nilam; Corneal, Sherry E. – Developmental Psychology, 2009
Individuals change over time, often in complex ways. Generally, studies of change over time have combined individuals into groups for analysis, which is inappropriate in most, if not all, studies of development. The authors explain how to identify appropriate levels of analysis (individual vs. group) and demonstrate how to estimate changes in…
