M. Pasco; Oosterman, Mirjam; Aviezer, Ora; Cummings, E Mark – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2021
An unsettled question in attachment theory and research is the extent to which children's attachment patterns with mothers and fathers "jointly" predict developmental outcomes.

John, Sufna – ZERO TO THREE, 2022
Children develop within the context of caregiver--child relationships, each presenting with their own unique strengths, areas of growth, and compatibility of fit.

Deneault, Audrey-Ann; Bureau, Jean-François; Yurkowski, Kim – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Past meta-analyses show that both child-mother and child-father attachment insecurity are independently and jointly associated with more externalizing behaviors in children. Little is known, however, on the ways that different types of insecure attachment independently and jointly predict the development of externalizing behaviors over time.…

Research on the development of children's decontextualized language has focused primarily on their references to events displaced in time.

We analyzed the references made by three Mandarin-speaking…

In this commentary, I delineate several questions raised by the Hammond and Drummond (2019) paper: (a) to why there seems to be an association between state positive emotion and prosocial behavior in young children, and if and how early positively tinged prosocial behavior provides a pathway to (b) later prosocial behavior more generally…

Towards the end of the first COVID-19 lockdown in early 2020, in Aotearoa New Zealand, the authors conducted a small-scale study to gain insight into children's responses to the pandemic restrictions.
