Community Violence, Protective Factors, and Adolescent Mental Health: A Profile Analysis / Nikeea COPELAND-LINDER in Journal of Clinical Child & Adolescent Psychology, 39-2 (March-April 2010)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Clinical Child & Adolescent Psychology > 39-2 (March-April 2010) . - p.176-186 Titre : Community Violence, Protective Factors, and Adolescent Mental Health: A Profile Analysis Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Nikeea COPELAND-LINDER, Auteur ; Sharon LAMBERT, Auteur ; Nicholas S. LALONGO, Auteur Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : p.176-186 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study examined interrelationships among community violence exposure, protective factors, and mental health in a sample of urban, predominantly African American adolescents (N = 504). Latent Profile Analysis was conducted to identify profiles of adolescents based on a combination of community violence exposure, self-worth, parental monitoring, and parental involvement and to examine whether these profiles differentially predict adolescents' depressive symptoms and aggressive behavior. Three classes were identified—a vulnerable class, a moderate risk/medium protection class, and a moderate risk/high protection class. The classes differentially predicted depressive symptoms but not aggressive behavior for boys and girls. The class with the highest community violence exposure also had the lowest self-worth.

Steps substantive researchers can take to build a scientifically strong case for the existence of trajectory groups / Nicholas S. LALONGO in Development and Psychopathology, 22-2 (May 2010)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 22-2 (May 2010) . - p.273-275 Titre : Steps substantive researchers can take to build a scientifically strong case for the existence of trajectory groups Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Nicholas S. LALONGO, Auteur Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : p.273-275 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Sterba and Bauer's Keynote Article does a superb job of reviewing the “… assumptions, strengths, and limitations of model-based person-oriented methods—clarifying which theoretical principles [researchers] can test and the compromises and trade-offs required to do so.” Their writing is exceptionally clear, and the examples given highly instructive. At the same time, their arguments may be so convincing that the reader may be reluctant to pursue person-oriented analyses in a longitudinal context. The purpose of this Commentary is not to contradict Sterba and Bauer's arguments but to briefly review the steps that substantive researchers can take in building a scientifically strong case for either assuming continuously varied growth “… or that [trajectory groups] actually exist” according to Raudenbush. These steps have been elaborated in a series of papers by Muthén and colleagues, but it is useful to briefly review them here.

Testing a developmental cascade model of adolescent substance use trajectories and young adult adjustment / Sarah D. LYNNE-LANDSMAN in Development and Psychopathology, 22-4 (November 2010)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 22-4 (November 2010) . - p.933-948 Titre : Testing a developmental cascade model of adolescent substance use trajectories and young adult adjustment Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Sarah D. LYNNE-LANDSMAN, Auteur ; Nicholas S. LALONGO, Auteur ; Catherine P. BRADSHAW, Auteur Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : p.933-948 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Developmental models highlight the impact of early risk factors on both the onset and growth of substance use, yet few studies have systematically examined the indirect effects of risk factors across several domains, and at multiple developmental time points, on trajectories of substance use and adult adjustment outcomes (e.g., educational attainment, mental health problems, criminal behavior). The current study used data from a community epidemiologically defined sample of 678 urban, primarily African American youth, followed from first grade through young adulthood (age 21) to test a developmental cascade model of substance use and young adult adjustment outcomes. Drawing upon transactional developmental theories and using growth mixture modeling procedures, we found evidence for a developmental progression from behavioral risk to adjustment problems in the peer context, culminating in a high-risk trajectory of alcohol, cigarette, and marijuana use during adolescence. Substance use trajectory membership was associated with adjustment in adulthood. These findings highlight the developmental significance of early individual and interpersonal risk factors on subsequent risk for substance use and, in turn, young adult adjustment outcomes.
