Delighted when approved by others, to pieces when rejected: children’s social anxiety magnifies the linkage between self- and other-evaluations / Albert REIJNTJES in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 52-7 (July 2011)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 52-7 (July 2011) . - p.774-781 Titre : Delighted when approved by others, to pieces when rejected: children’s social anxiety magnifies the linkage between self- and other-evaluations Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Albert REIJNTJES, Auteur ; Sander THOMAES, Auteur ; Paul BOELEN, Auteur ; Menno VAN DER SCHOOT, Auteur ; Bram OROBIO DE CASTRO, Auteur ; Michael J. TELCH, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p.774-781 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Social anxiety  state self-esteem  depressive symptoms  sociometer theory  pre-adolescents Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background:  Socially anxious children tend to attach great importance to others’ evaluations of them. However, the extent to which they base their momentary feelings of self-worth (i.e., state self-esteem) on social (dis)approval is unclear. It is also unclear whether this exceedingly approval-based self-esteem is a common correlate of social anxiety and depression, or specifically linked to one or the other. Methods:  Changes in children’s state self-esteem were obtained in response to a manipulated peer evaluation outcome. Participants (N = 188) aged 10 to 13 took part in a rigged online computer contest and were randomized to receive positive or negative peer feedback. Self-reported state self-esteem was assessed via computer at baseline and immediately post-feedback. The predictive effects of self-reported social anxiety and depression symptoms on changes in state self-esteem were investigated. Results:  Hierarchical multiple regression analyses showed that children with higher social anxiety, as indexed by the fear of negative evaluation component, experienced significantly stronger increases in state self-esteem following peer approval (β = .26, p < .05), and significantly stronger decreases in state self-esteem following peer disapproval (β =−.23, p < .05). In both conditions depressive symptoms did not predict changes in state self-esteem (ps > .20). Conclusions:  Socially anxious children’s state self-esteem is strongly contingent on social approval. Because basing one’s self-esteem on external validation has multiple negative consequences, these findings highlight the importance of teaching these children skills (e.g., making cognitive reappraisals) to weaken the linkage between other- and self-evaluations.

Detecting social information processing profiles of boys with aggressive behavior problems: An interactive virtual reality approach / Anouk VAN DIJK ; Sander THOMAES ; Esmée E. VERHULP ; Maaike M. VAN REST ; Bram O. DE CASTRO in Development and Psychopathology, 35-4 (October 2023)

The aim of this study was to test whether it is possible to detect distinct social information processing (SIP) profiles among boys with aggressive behavior problems. We therefore conducted Latent Profile Analyses on boys' SIP patterns assessed in interactive virtual reality. Additionally, we examined the discriminant validity of these SIP profiles by comparing them on theoretically relevant child characteristics (i.e., temperament, executive functioning, aggressive belief systems, punishment insensitivity, sensation seeking). We presented boys (N = 181; ages 7-13) with a virtual classroom where they could play games with virtual peers. They reported on their SIP in four virtual reality scenarios, designed to assess reactive and proactive aggressive SIP. Results revealed four distinct SIP profiles: a general reactive SIP profile, a situation-specific reactive SIP profile, a mixed reactive-proactive SIP profile, and a nonaggressive SIP profile. Planned contrasts revealed that boys with these SIP profiles differed in temperament, aggressive belief systems, and punishment insensitivity, but not in executive functioning and sensation seeking. Overall, findings suggest that boys differ in the exact SIP patterns underlying their aggressive behavior, providing inroads to tailor interventions to children?s individual needs.

Feeling anxious and being engaged in a warming world: climate anxiety and adolescents' pro-environmental behavior / Jenna SPITZER ; Stathis GRAPSAS ; Judith VAN DE WETERING ; Astrid POORTHUIS ; Anouk SMEEKES ; Sander THOMAES in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 65-10 (October 2024)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 65-10 (October 2024) . - p.1270-1282 Titre : Feeling anxious and being engaged in a warming world: climate anxiety and adolescents' pro-environmental behavior Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jenna SPITZER, Auteur ; Stathis GRAPSAS, Auteur ; Judith VAN DE WETERING, Auteur ; Astrid POORTHUIS, Auteur ; Anouk SMEEKES, Auteur ; Sander THOMAES, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1270-1282 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Climate anxiety  adolescents  pro-environmental behavior  environmental efficacy Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Climate anxiety is increasingly prevalent among adolescents worldwide. Are climate-anxious adolescents prone to engage in pro-environmental behavior? Or might the association between climate anxiety and pro-environmental be curvilinear, such that high levels of climate anxiety become ?paralyzing?? And do these associations depend on whether adolescents believe that, with effort, the worst impacts of climate change can still be prevented? Methods We addressed these questions in three studies (two preregistered; combined N?=?2,211), conducted across two countries. We used cross-sectional and longitudinal methods, and various measures of climate anxiety and pro-environmental behavior. We performed Bayesian regression analyses comparing two models that tested competing hypotheses. The first model included a linear effect of climate anxiety on pro-environmental behavior, and the second model included both a linear and a curvilinear (i.e. inverted U-shaped) effect of climate anxiety on pro-environmental behavior. Next, we added environmental efficacy to the best fitting model and explored its moderating effects. Results Adolescents reported low-to-moderate levels of climate anxiety. Across the board, we found evidence for a small, positive, and mostly linear (rather than curvilinear) association between climate anxiety and pro-environmental behavior. While Study 1 supported a curvilinear association (Bayes Factor (BF)?=?18.87), Studies 2 and 3 mostly supported a linear model (BFs range 6.86?12.71), except for weak support (BF?=?1.62) for a curvilinear association between climate anxiety symptoms and public sphere pro-environmental behavior. Adolescents' environmental efficacy moderated this link for public sphere (e.g. activism), but not private sphere (e.g. recycling), pro-environmental behavior. Conclusions Climate-anxious adolescents are prone to engage in pro-environmental behavior. We found limited evidence for ?eco-paralysis? (i.e. a passive state of pro-environmental behavioral stasis) at high levels of climate anxiety. Our results are consistent with the possibility that supporting adolescents' environmental efficacy will help climate-anxious adolescents engage in public sphere pro-environmental behavior.

What makes narcissists bloom? A framework for research on the etiology and development of narcissism / Sander THOMAES in Development and Psychopathology, 21-4 (November 2009)

BUSHMAN, Auteur ; Bram OROBIO DE CASTRO, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.1233-1247 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Narcissism is a dynamic form of personality characterized by a pervasive sense of grandiosity and self-importance, and by a need to obtain continuous self-validation from others. Very little is known about its etiology and development. What factors (e.g., temperament, parenting experiences) and processes (e.g., transactions between these factors over time) cause some children to become more narcissistic than others? When does narcissism first emerge, and how does narcissism develop over time? This article describes a framework for research on the etiology and development of narcissism, and recommends ten research priorities. This research should yield fundamental knowledge and should inform intervention efforts to minimize the negative impact narcissistic individuals have on themselves and on others.
