Are sibling relationships protective? A longitudinal study / Krista GASS in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 48-2 (February 2007)

Methods: A two-wave longitudinal design was used to examine the protective effect of positive sibling relationships on child adjustment for children experiencing stressful life events. Mothers reported on stressful life events and child adjustment. Older siblings assessed the quality of relationship between themselves and target children. Results: Sibling affection moderated the relationship between stressful life events and internalizing symptomatology but not the relationship between stressful life events and externalizing symptomatology. Notably, the protective effect of sibling affection was evident regardless of mother–child relationship quality. Conclusions: Positive sibling relationships are an important source of support for children experiencing stressful life events. Implications for intervention are discussed.

Birth weight interacts with a functional variant of the oxytocin receptor gene (OXTR) to predict executive functioning in children / Mark WADE in Development and Psychopathology, 30-1 (February 2018)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 30-1 (February 2018) . - p.203-211 Titre : Birth weight interacts with a functional variant of the oxytocin receptor gene (OXTR) to predict executive functioning in children Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Mark WADE, Auteur ; Heather PRIME, Auteur ; Thomas J. HOFFMANN, Auteur ; Louis A. SCHMIDT, Auteur ; Thomas G. O'CONNOR, Auteur ; Jennifer M. JENKINS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.203-211 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Genetic variation in the oxytocin receptor gene (OXTR) is associated with several psychiatric conditions characterized by deficits in executive functioning (EF). A specific OXTR variant, rs2254298, has previously been associated with brain functioning in regions implicated in EF. Moreover, birth weight variation across the entire range is associated with individual differences in cortical structure and function that underlie EF. This is the first study to examine the main and interactive effect between rs2254298 and birth weight on EF in children. The sample consisted of 310 children from an ongoing longitudinal study. EF was measured at age 4.5 using observational tasks indexing working memory, cognitive flexibility, and inhibitory control. A family-based design that controlled for population admixture, stratification, and nongenomic confounds was employed. A significant genetic association between rs2254298 and EF was observed, with more copies of the major allele (G) associated with higher EF. There was also a significant interaction between rs2254298 and birth weight, such that more copies of the major allele in combination with higher birth weight predicted better EF. Findings suggest that OXTR may be associated with discrete neurocognitive abilities in childhood, and these effects may be modulated by intrauterine conditions related to fetal growth and development.

Children's Understanding of Marital Conflict and the Marital Relationship / Jennifer M. JENKINS in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 41-2 (February 2000)

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 41-2 (February 2000) . - p.161-168 Titre : Children's Understanding of Marital Conflict and the Marital Relationship Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jennifer M.

Age differences were hypothesized in four areas of children's understanding of marital conflict and the marital relationship, based on the development between 5 and 9 years of age of children's abilities to (a) analyse complex sequences of behavior in terms of the mental states of protagonists and (b) integrate multiple social roles. The four areas investigated were: conceptions of marital conflict, conflict resolution, family triangulation, and integration of the spousal and parental roles. Children were read stories involving family interactions. Open-ended questions were asked about their understanding of these interactions and a coding scheme was devised that reflected theoretical concepts. Nine-year-olds differed from 5-year-olds on all aspects of their understanding of marital conflict and the marital relationship, and 7-year-olds showed levels of understanding between 5- and 9-year-olds. Younger children were less likely than older children to explain marital conflict in terms of the divergent goals of each parent, to understand conflict resolution as dependent on one person changing their beliefs or goals, to understand that parents were simultaneously spouses and parents and to understand the nature of triangulation. Marital conflict is interpreted very differently by children of different ages.

Cumulative contextual risk, maternal responsivity, and social cognition at 18 months / Mark WADE in Development and Psychopathology, 27-1 (February 2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 27-1 (February 2015) . - p.189-203 Titre : Cumulative contextual risk, maternal responsivity, and social cognition at 18 months Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Mark WADE, Auteur ; Chris MOORE, Auteur ; Janet Wilde ASTINGTON, Auteur ; Kristen FRAMPTON, Auteur ; Jennifer M. JENKINS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.189-203 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : By 18 months children demonstrate a range of social–cognitive skills that can be considered important precursors to more advanced forms of social understanding such as theory of mind. Although individual differences in social cognition have been linked to neurocognitive maturation, sociocultural models of development suggest that environmental influences operate in the development of children's social–cognitive outcomes. In the current study of 501 children and their mothers, we tested and found support for a model in which distal environmental risk, assessed when children were newborns, was indirectly associated with children's social–cognitive competency at 18 months through mothers' responsivity at 18 months. Part of this effect also operated through children's concomitant language skills, suggesting both a language-mediated and a language-independent mechanism of social–cognitive development. These findings are discussed with respect to the Vygotskian themes of internalization and semiotic mediation.

Predictors of between-family and within-family variation in parent–child relationships / Thomas G. O'CONNOR in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 47-5 (May 2006)

Methods: Approximately equal numbers of biological (non-stepfamilies), single-mother, stepfather, and complex/stepmother stepfamilies were selected from a large community study in England. The sample comprised 404 children in 171 families. Parent–child warmth/support and conflict/negativity were assessed using questionnaire and interview methods; family socio-demographic data were collected from parent report. Results: Multilevel model analyses indicated substantial within-family variation in parent–child relationship quality, and greater within-family variation in complex/stepmother families compared to other family types. Within-family variation was largely accounted for by differences in the siblings' biological relatedness to the mother and father and to child-specific factors, notably aggressive behavior. Conclusions: The findings illustrate how research using multilevel model designs and analytic strategies may enhance our understanding of family process.
