explored whether the themes that emerged from children's definitions of bullying
were consistent with theoretical and methodological operationalizations within
the research literature, and whether the provision of a definition when

relationship was examined by the gender of the adolescent and the gender of the
parent. Results indicated that discrepancies in adolescent-mother and

Estimating and interpreting latent variable interactionsInternational Journal of Behavioral Development - Tập 39 Số 1 - Trang 87-96 - 2015
Julie Maslowsky, Justin Jager, Douglas Hemken
Latent variables are common in psychological research. Research questions
involving the interaction of two variables are likewise quite common. Methods
for estimating and interpreting interactions between latent variables within a
structural equation modeling framework have recently become available. The
latent moderated structural equations (LMS) method is one that is built into
Mplus software. T... hiện toàn bộ

Disentangling the “whys” from the “whats” of aggressive behaviourInternational Journal of Behavioral Development - Tập 27 Số 2 - Trang 122-133 - 2003
Todd D. Little, Christopher C. Henrich, Stephanie Jones, Patricia H. Hawley
We examined the validity of a measurement system for the study of aggression
that distinguishes among four principle dimensions of aggressive behaviour:
overt and relational aggression (i.e., the “whats”) and instrumental and
reactive aggression (i.e., the “whys”). The sample comprised 1723 adolescents
(Grades 5 through 10) from Berlin, Germany. The internal validity of the
measurement system was ... hiện toàn bộ

In 2006, the Finnish Ministry of Education mandated our research group to
develop an antibullying program for comprehensive schools. The new program,
KiVa, includes both universal and indicated actions to reduce bullying. The
present study reports the effects of KiVa on nine different forms of being
bullied in a sample of 5,651 fourth to sixth graders from 78 schools (39
intervention, 39 control).... hiện toàn bộ

Jan V. Goodsitt, Jayne Grady Raitan, Marion Perlmutter
Interaction between mothers and their 2-, 31/2-, and 5-year old children was
examined during book reading sessions. Sixteen dyads at each age level read a
novel and familiar book. Formal reading and interchange about story content
increased with age and book familiarity, while labelling decreased with age and
book familiarity. The results highlighted the informal teaching that takes place
during e... hiện toàn bộ
German Children's Behavior Towards Their Mothers at 12 Months and Their Fathers at 18 Months in Ainsworth's Strange SituationInternational Journal of Behavioral Development - Tập 4 Số 2 - Trang 157-181 - 1981
Karin Grossmann, F.-X. Huber, Ulrike G. Wartner
Fourty-nine 12 months old children and their mothers were videotaped in
Ainsworth's Strange Situation. Fourty-six of them were videotaped again in the
same situation at 18 months with their fathers. Quality of attachment was
determined by using Ainsworth's criteria. Fewer children had 'secure'
relationships to their parents than in comparable U.S. samples. There was no
correlation between infant-m... hiện toàn bộ

While maternal influences on young children’s sleep are increasingly documented,
the study of paternal contributions to this important sphere of child
functioning is only just beginning. In addition, much of this emerging research
has focused on infancy only or has relied on parental reports of child sleep.
The current study aimed to examine the associations between paternal involvement
and child ... hiện toàn bộ
