With growing attention to youth's efforts to address sexual and gender diversity issues in Gender-Sexuality Alliances (GSAs), there remains limited research on adult advisors. Do advisor characteristics predict their youth members' advocacy? Among 58 advisors of 38 GSAs, we considered whether advisor attributes predicted greater advocacy by youth…

Face memory, including the ability to recall a person's name, is of major importance in social contexts. Like many other memory functions, it may rely on sleep. We investigated whether targeted memory reactivation during sleep could improve associative and perceptual aspects of face memory. Participants studied 80 face-name pairs, and then a…

Sohyun An Kim – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2025
Working memory functions as an underlying force for school readiness, yet many autistic children have difficulties with it. Similarly, autistic children tend to start kindergarten with less school readiness compared with their peers. In addition, children from lower socioeconomic status (SES) backgrounds face additional barriers in working memory…

An online survey was filled out by 521 Finnish parents (88% mothers), and the data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U-test and analysis of covariance…

Background: Williams syndrome anxiety research predominantly focuses on disorder prevalence and symptomatology, categorised using standardised mental health classifications. However, the use of these assessments may not fully capture the phenotypic features of anxiety in Williams syndrome. In this study, we examined characteristics of anxiety…

Schuman, Carrie; Stofer, Kathryn; Anthony, Lisa; Neff, Hannah; Soni, Nikita; Darrow, Alice; Chang, Peter – International Journal of Science Education, Part B: Communication and Public Engagement, 2021
Interest is an important precursor to engaging the public in environmental and science learning. We used focus groups to explore ocean learning interests of inland residents of a coastal U.S. state, reasons for those interests, and differences between adults and children. We found adults and children generally had similar interests including…

Sherman Vernon – ProQuest LLC, 2021
In my journey of teen and young adult growth (junior high up to college) I have always had a vision and a plan to achieve goals. The reason I had goals is because I had an awareness of who I was and what I wanted to do with my life. When I started having children, I taught to them the things that I was taught to understand, recognize, and…

Children with autism spectrum disorder are prescribed various medications to address behavior and mood. In clinical trials, individuals taking concomitant psychotropic medications often are excluded to maintain homogeneity and prevent contamination of clinical endpoints. However, this choice may compromise the representativeness of the sample. In…

Guilfoyle, Janna; Winston, Molly; Sideris, John; Martin, Gary E.; Nayar, Kritika; Bush, Lauren; Wassink, Tom; Losh, Molly – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), a heritable neurodevelopmental disorder, confers genetic liability that is often expressed among relatives through subclinical, genetically-meaningful traits, or endophenotypes. For instance, relative to controls, parents of individuals with ASD differ in language-related skills, with differences emerging in…

Feraco, Tommaso; Casali, Nicole; Meneghetti, Chiara – Mind, Brain, and Education, 2023
Adaptability (adjustment to new and uncertain situations) and grit (perseverance and passion for long-term goals) both sustain students, but their joint contribution has never been explored, and recent studies propose they could compose a single factor. In this study we aim to test whether (1) they actually belong to a single overarching factor as…
