Bibliometric analysis revealed that far more studies have examined parent-to-child associations than either child-to-parent or bidirectional associations, reflecting a significant imbalance in what researchers publishing in JCPP intend to study. However, when evaluating evidence from a subset of robust and well-designed studies, especially those that permit a test of bidirectionality, the authors see a more balanced picture, with a roughly equal number of studies finding evidence of parent-to-child, child-to-parent, and bidirectional effects. These studies used a range of methodologies and examined a diverse set of parenting behaviors and child outcomes. Overall, the findings suggest that evidence in favor of child effects is consistently observed despite being significantly understudied relative to that of parent effects. The authors emphasize the importance of studying both child and parent effects alongside one another to understand the complexity of parent?child interactions, and underscore how respect for the agency and perspectives of youth is essential to understanding how they shape the conditions in which they grow up.

However, this hypothesis has not been widely tested. Methods We addressed this gap by examining whether children's education polygenic scores (PGSedu) were associated with maternal self-reported positive and literacy-focused parenting when children were 5?years old, and if evoked parenting differences mediated genetic effects on children's educational outcomes (mother-reported at 6?8?years of age), while controlling for parental PGSedu. We also investigated whether maternal reports of children's language at 5?years old were associated with parenting and mediated genetic effects on educational performance. These questions were addressed in a sample of 83,627 parent-offspring trios from the Norwegian Mother, Father and Child Cohort Study, a longitudinal population-based pregnancy cohort. Results Children's PGSedu were significantly associated with maternal literacy-focused (??=?.03, 95% CI [0.01, 0.05], p?=?.021) but not positive parenting (??=?0.01, 95% CI [?0.02, 0.05], p?=?.410), and literacy-focused parenting significantly mediated the effects of children's PGSedu on their educational performance (??=?0.01, 95% CI [1???10?3, 0.01], p?=?.023). Children's language was associated with maternal parenting and mediated the effects of children's PGSedu on their educational performance (??=?0.01, 95% CI [3???10?3, 0.02], p?=?.002). Conclusions These findings support our hypotheses and suggest early language and parenting may be mechanisms implicated in the pathways from children's genetics to their educational outcomes.

This study investigates whether PSE is part of the pathway of MCM or an independent risk factor affecting offspring psychopathology. Methods Participants were 284 birth mother?child (44% male) dyads, primarily Black, low-income, enrolled at birth. Exposure to alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, or cocaine in utero was assessed at 1?month postpartum. MCM was assessed at child age 4, and maternal psychological distress and offspring maltreatment at child age 10. Mother- and child-reported internalizing and externalizing symptoms were assessed at child age 12 using the Child Behavior Checklist and the Youth Self-Report. Structural equation modeling was conducted to test sequential mediation pathways examining the direct and indirect associations of MCM with child internalizing and externalizing symptoms via PSE, maternal psychological distress, and offspring maltreatment, adjusting for covariates. Results MCM was directly related to adolescent-reported internalizing and externalizing symptoms, whereas PSE was directly related to adolescent-reported externalizing symptoms. MCM and PSE were indirectly related to mother-reported internalizing and externalizing symptoms via maternal psychological distress. Only PSE was related to offspring maltreatment at 10?years, and offspring maltreatment was related to both mother- and adolescent-reported internalizing and externalizing symptoms at 12?years. Conclusions MCM and PSE may increase offspring vulnerability to psychopathology, highlighting the importance of evaluating historical risks that mothers may transmit from their own childhood maltreatment and prenatal substance use in assessing offspring psychopathology.

We conducted a systematic review and quantitative analysis to investigate the extent to which specific childhood comorbidities (internalizing, externalizing and neurodevelopmental conditions) predict the persistence of childhood ADHD into later developmental stages. Methods We extracted data from 26 studies meeting the criteria for inclusion and applied multilevel random effects models to obtain pooled estimates of Cohen's d for selected predictors on ADHD persistence. Results Childhood comorbid internalizing and externalizing conditions (d?=?0.19 and d?=?0.31, respectively), but not neurodevelopmental disorders, were significantly associated with ADHD persistence. After adjusting for covariates (sex, age and other comorbidities), this association diminished for externalizing conditions (dadj?=?0.24) and was no longer significant for internalizing conditions (dadj?=?0.06). The association between comorbid externalizing behavior problems and ADHD persistence was found only in studies that used parent-reported data to measure childhood ADHD and externalizing conditions, but not in studies that included teacher-reported childhood symptoms. Conclusions Childhood comorbid externalizing and, to a lesser extent, internalizing conditions were associated with the persistence of ADHD, but this association may be partially due to confounders. Childhood comorbidity of neurodevelopmental disorders does not appear to increase the likelihood of ADHD persistence.

Distinct cascades for secure and insecure infants from early anger dysregulation to mothers' and fathers' power-assertive control at toddler age to externalizing outcomes at preschool age: a replication / Sanghag KIM in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 67-2 (February 2026)

We report a continued programmatic effort to replicate our model of security as a potent catalyst moderating common maladaptive longitudinal cascades from early child difficulty to increased parental power assertion to externalizing developmental outcomes. We elucidate the multifinality of sequelae that can unfold from early child difficulty. Our moderated mediation model proposes that such cascades occur only in parent?child dyads with histories of insecure attachment in infancy; early security buffers those risks. Methods Children and Parents Study (CAPS) included 200 community mothers, fathers, and children from the U.S. Midwest. At 16?months (N?=?194, 93 girls), we observed children's early difficulty (anger dysregulation) and security with each parent in the Strange Situation Paradigm. At 38?months (age 3, N?=?175, 86 girls), we observed parents' power-assertive control. At 52?months (age 4.5, N?=?177, 86 girls), we observed children's poor self-regulation and violations of conduct rules and obtained parents' reports of children's disruptive behavior. Results For mothers and children, the indirect effects of early anger dysregulation at 16?months on all three outcomes at age 4.5, mediated via increased power assertion at age 3, were present only in insecure dyads, as reflected in significant moderated mediation. Comprehensive analysis that integrated all three outcomes further supported the robust moderating effect of early security for the entire developmental path from anger dysregulation to power assertion to child outcomes, and for each segment of that path. There were no findings for fathers. Conclusions We discuss the critical importance ? and challenges ? of replicating models of complex longitudinal cascades when elucidating multifinality throughthe lens unique to developmental psychology and psychopathology.

Effects of a parent advocacy intervention on service access for transition-aged autistic youth: a multisite randomized controlled trial / Julie Lounds TAYLOR in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 67-2 (February 2026)

SLAUGHTER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.212-224 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  services  transition to adulthood  randomized controlled trial Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Autistic youth in the United States face many challenges accessing services as they transition to adulthood. Improving parents' ability to advocate for services is a promising way to improve service access. The current study tested whether participation in an intervention to improve parents' ability to advocate for adult services (called Advocating for Supports to Improve Service Transitions or ASSIST) led to increased service access for their transition-aged autistic youth. Methods Using a multisite, single-blind parallel-group design, we randomized 185 parents of transition-aged autistic youth to either a treatment condition that received the ASSIST intervention, or a control condition that received comprehensive written information about adult services. Primary outcomes for this report ? number of government programs that fund services and direct services received by the youth ? were collected via parental interview at baseline, six, and 12?months after intervention. Results Primary analyses found no significant treatment effects on service access. Subgroup analyses, however, detected treatment effects for families of youth who had exited high school prior to their families taking ASSIST. Among those families, youth from the treatment group were receiving more government programs that fund services at 6?months after intervention compared with youth from the control group. Conclusions We cannot conclude from our findings that ASSIST improved access to services, though there was some evidence to suggest increased access to government programs that fund services for families of autistic youth who had exited high school. Future research should investigate which families can translate written information about adult services (i.e. the control condition) into improved service access, and which families need more individualized support beyond a group-based class to see improvements in service access.

Executive function predicts academic and social skills in autistic kindergartners based on a multimodal approach / Boin CHOI in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 67-2 (February 2026)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 67-2 (February 2026) . - p.225-237 Titre : Executive function predicts academic and social skills in autistic kindergartners based on a multimodal approach Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Boin CHOI, Auteur ; Haeun LEE, Auteur ; Laura KUHN, Auteur ; Jeongjin KIM, Auteur ; Seok-Jun HONG, Auteur ; Adriana DI MARTINO, Auteur ; Alessandro GOZZI, Auteur ; Michael V. LOMBARDO, Auteur ; Frederick J. MORRISON, Auteur ; Catherine LORD, Auteur ; So Hyun KIM, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.225-237 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  executive function  academic achievement  social skills Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Executive functions (EF) are cognitive processes that underlie goal-directed abilities and behaviors which have been found to be variable in autistic children. While EFs are well-established predictors of academic and social outcomes in neurotypical children, it is unclear if these same associations are true for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This study examined the relation between EF and academic and social skills in cognitively able, verbal kindergarteners with ASD, while using a multimeasurement approach to EF skills. Methods Participants included 67 autistic children aged 4?6?years longitudinally followed from kindergarten entry to exit. Children's EF was measured using a multimodal assessment approach with a computerized EF battery, behavioral observation, and parent report. Academic achievement and social skills were evaluated through a standardized assessment and parent report, respectively. Multiple regression models were conducted to explore the associations of EF with academic and social outcomes, while controlling for key demographic factors (e.g. age, sex, nonverbal IQ). Results EF, measured through the computerized battery, was significantly associated with math achievement when controlling for age, sex, and nonverbal IQ, both concurrently and longitudinally. EF difficulties, as reported by parents, were closely linked to current and later parent-reported peer play challenges. Conclusions These findings indicate that EF may be critical foundational skills for school success in young autistic children at school transition. Therefore, targeted EF interventions could be a powerful way to optimize academic and social development in autistic kindergarteners.

While EFs are well-established predictors of academic and social outcomes in neurotypical children, it is unclear if these same associations are true for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This study examined the relation between EF and academic and social skills in cognitively able, verbal kindergarteners with ASD, while using a multimeasurement approach to EF skills. Methods Participants included 67 autistic children aged 4?6?years longitudinally followed from kindergarten entry to exit. Children's EF was measured using a multimodal assessment approach with a computerized EF battery, behavioral observation, and parent report. Academic achievement and social skills were evaluated through a standardized assessment and parent report, respectively. Multiple regression models were conducted to explore the associations of EF with academic and social outcomes, while controlling for key demographic factors (e.g. age, sex, nonverbal IQ). Results EF, measured through the computerized battery, was significantly associated with math achievement when controlling for age, sex, and nonverbal IQ, both concurrently and longitudinally. EF difficulties, as reported by parents, were closely linked to current and later parent-reported peer play challenges. Conclusions These findings indicate that EF may be critical foundational skills for school success in young autistic children at school transition. Therefore, targeted EF interventions could be a powerful way to optimize academic and social development in autistic kindergarteners. The results also highlight the importance of a multimeasurement approach to EF assessment, as it provides a more comprehensive understanding of the broader impact of EF on key developmental outcomes in ASD.

Using a person-centered approach, we examined the patterns of initial diagnosis for mental health and neurodevelopmental conditions among autistic children and youth identified from the general population. Methods The sample was drawn from the 2019 Canadian Health Survey on Children and Youth (CHSCY) cohort (N?=?47,781), consisting of 776 5?17-year-olds (82% assigned-male-at-birth) with a caregiver-reported diagnosis of autism. Multigroup latent class analysis was used to identify subgroups based on ages of initial diagnoses of autism, anxiety, mood, learning, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorders stratified by sex assigned at birth. Functional difficulties and multimorbidity status, including the number and types of coexisting conditions, were compared across the subgroups. Results Four latent subgroups were identified for each sex group, primarily differentiated by the age of autism diagnosis. The most prevalent class (46%) was characterized by an initial autism diagnosis at ages 3?5?years. The remaining subgroups, with autism diagnosed primarily before age 3, at 6?8, and at 9?17?years, each comprised ~20% of the sample. Subgroups with autism diagnosed after age 6 tended to have more coexisting conditions, with females showing heightened probabilities of mental health diagnoses across age windows from birth to age 17?years. The temporal order of coexisting diagnoses relative to autism diagnosis varied across subgroups, with sex differences more evident for anxiety and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorders. Conclusions There were nuanced variations in the timing of initial diagnoses of coexisting conditions based on the age of autism diagnosis. The sex-varying patterns highlight the importance of continuous monitoring and evaluation of the neurodevelopmental and mental health needs of autistic children and youth, with supports tailored to sex and the timing of autism diagnosis.

These behaviors and traits are central to most externalizing (EXT) and neurodevelopmental (NDD) problems, which are substantially genetically influenced. We examined the mechanisms by which high levels of genetic predispositions to EXT and NDD problems associate with elevated mental health symptoms and subsequently lead to lower levels of academic achievement in two developmental periods (i.e., childhood and adolescence). Methods Analyses were performed on a subset of participants from the Generation R Study (N?=?2,992) and the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) (N?=?5,099). Using structural equation modeling, we simultaneously tested for indirect pathways between polygenic scores for externalizing and neurodevelopmental problems (PGS-EXT and PGS-NDD) and academic achievement (age 12 in the Generation R Study and age 16 in ALSPAC) via children's symptomatology for conduct, attention, social, and oppositional defiant problems reported by mothers during early childhood (Generation R Study) and from childhood to adolescence (ALSPAC study). Our models were adjusted for children's sex, exposure to adversity, cognitive abilities, early school achievement (only in ALSPAC), and genetic predisposition to educational attainment. Results In both cohorts, we found that higher levels of PGS-NDD were associated with lower levels of academic achievement via higher attention problems. In adolescence only, we found that higher levels of PGS-NDD and PGS-EXT were associated with lower academic achievement via higher levels of conduct problems. Conclusions Genetic predispositions to EXT and NDD were indirectly associated with academic achievement beyond the PGS for educational attainment, highlighting the need for sustained efforts to support children with attention problems in educational settings and to intervene on conduct problems, particularly during adolescence.

How are children's perceptions of the home environment associated with a general psychopathology factor across childhood? / Jack K. NEJAND in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 67-2 (February 2026)

Although the relative contributions of these influences on psychopathology are established, the longitudinal associations between the p-factor and specific environmental exposures and the aetiology of these associations across development are not well understood. Here, we examine whether twin-rated home environment contributes to changes in the p-factor over time or, conversely, whether the p-factor influences twin-rated home environment, reflecting potential evocative gene?environment processes. Methods Data were obtained from the Twins Early Development Study (TEDS). Cross-lagged panel analyses were conducted separately to ascertain the direction of associations between parent-rated p, twin-rated p, and twin-rated home environment (chaos at home and parental discipline) at ages 9, 12, and 16 (N?=?6,213). Biometric autoregressive cross-lagged twin models were used to assess the aetiology of these associations, and MZ differences analyses were used to control for familial effects. Results Both parent-rated and twin-rated p-factor and twin-rated home environment were stable over time, although the twin-rated p-factor (r?=?.44 [0.42, 0.46]?.40 [0.37, 0.41]) was more variable than the parent-rated p-factor (r?=?.72 [0.71, 0.74]?.63 [0.61, 0.64]). Twin-rated home environment was more variable than p-factor in all cross-lagged models (phenotypic and MZ differences). Small, significant bidirectional associations were found between the p-factor and twin-rated home environment, with stronger cross-lagged paths from the p-factor to the twin-rated home environment than vice versa. These longitudinal associations persisted over time, though attenuated for parent-rated p-factor. Genetic analyses revealed that bidirectional cross-lagged paths were largely explained by shared environmental factors, with a smaller proportion explained by genetic factors. This pattern of results was confirmed in MZ difference analyses. Conclusions Our findings suggest a dynamic and bidirectional relationship between p-factor and twin-rated home environment across development, predominantly influenced by shared environmental factors. Changes in one can affect the other, highlighting the complexity of psychopathology's environmental influences. This underscores the need for further investigation into gene?environment interplay to inform prevention and intervention strategies for psychopathology.

Less is known about ADHD family history infants and later childhood outcomes. We characterise profiles of mid-childhood developmental and behavioural outcomes in infants with a family history of autism and/or ADHD to identify potential support needs and patterns of co-occurrence across domains. Methods Two hundred and sixty-three infants (51% male; N?=?198 autism/ADHD family history; N?=?65 no family history) were assessed at 6?12?years. A latent profile analysis (LPA) with indicator variables measuring developmental abilities (IQ, adaptive function) and behavioural traits (autism, ADHD, anxiety) identified dimensional, data-derived outcome classes. Results A seven-class solution was the most robust and clinically meaningful. Two classes (27% and 23%) had typical development; two classes had high autism, ADHD, and anxiety traits?one with low IQ and adaptive function (10%) and one with average IQ but low adaptive function (13%); one class had elevated autism and ADHD but not anxiety traits (10%); and the final two classes had elevated ADHD (9%) and anxiety (8%) traits in isolation. Sex distribution was balanced across all classes. Children with autism were found in all classes but predominantly in the classes with low IQ/adaptive functioning and high behavioural traits, as well as in the class with elevated autism and ADHD traits. We found only partial continuity between membership of similarly derived 3-year LPA classes and mid-childhood LPA classes. Conclusions Many autism/ADHD family history infants develop typically. However, by mid-childhood, in addition to those with autism, others show elevated neurodevelopmental (autism, ADHD) and neuropsychiatric (anxiety) behavioural traits. Lower developmental abilities (IQ and adaptive function) are primarily seen in children with an autism diagnosis. Family history infants should be monitored through childhood, and support provided should challenges emerge.

However, empirical research investigating this hypothesis is largely lacking. This study examined how experiences of ?feeling excluded? and ?not belonging? impact the prospective development of psychotic experiences in an adolescent sexual minority group, defined here as non-heterosexual attraction to others. Methods Experience sampling method (ESM) data from 1913 Flemish adolescents (aged 11?20) in the SIGMA study were analyzed. They reported their momentary feelings of exclusion when alone, belonging when in the company of others (both operationalizations of social defeat), and suspiciousness. Multilevel linear regression models tested the bidirectional, within- and between-person associations between social defeat and suspiciousness, and the effects of sexual minority status. Results Lower feelings of belonging when in company significantly predicted higher suspiciousness at the next beep [95% CI: ?0.03, ?0.01], whereas increased feelings of exclusion when alone did not. Moreover, suspiciousness did not significantly predict feelings of exclusion and belonging at the next beep, confirming the direction of effect. Sexual minority participants reported generally lower belonging in social settings [95% CI: ?0.68, ?0.29] and higher suspiciousness [95% CI: 0.16, 0.57], but not higher feelings of exclusion. The interaction between social defeat and sexual minority status was not significant, indicating no differential sensitivity to social defeat experiences. Conclusions The experience of ?not fitting in? when in company may be the most poignant social factor increasing risk for psychotic experiences in sexual minority youth. The findings highlight the need for inclusive environments where sexual minority individuals feel supported and integrated.

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 67-2 (February 2026) . - p.305-308 Titre : Editorial Perspective: Issues for DSM 6 – an Alternative Model for Neurodevelopmental Disorders to enhance nosological validity and clinical utility Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Michele POLETTI, Auteur ; Antonio PRETI, Auteur ; Andrea RABALLO, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.305-308 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Neurodevelopmental disorders  alternative dimensional model  severity levels  phenotypes  dimensional profiles. Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The categorical diagnostic approach in the DSM-5 for Neurodevelopmental Disorders often reveals significant limitations, as high rates of comorbidity are common across conditions such as ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, and developmental coordination disorder. This co-occurrence aligns with a neuroconstructive dimensional perspective of neurodevelopment, which emphasizes the interconnectedness of cognitive, motor, and social impairments evolving throughout development. This perspective challenges modular and categorical views of neurodevelopmental phenotypic manifestations. Envisioning the DSM-6, a proposed dimensional Alternative Model for Neurodevelopmental Disorders (AMND) could integrate functioning severity and pathological traits, drawing inspiration from DSM-5 innovations, such as the Autism Spectrum Disorder severity levels. Such a model could facilitate nuanced profiling of individual strengths, needs, and developmental risks, accommodating both categorical and dimensional diagnostic approaches. This framework could also improve early identification of vulnerabilities to severe mental illnesses and clarify the developmental antecedents of adult-onset psychiatric conditions, offering pragmatic insights for clinical interventions and prognosis.
