Book Development and Co occurrence of Emotional and Behavior Problems in Early Adolescence

Download or read book Development and Co occurrence of Emotional and Behavior Problems in Early Adolescence written by Susan Joan Klostermann and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many studies have shown a link between emotional and behavioral problems in youth. The nature of the longitudinal relationship between these two conditions, however, is not well understood. Thus the current study examines the developmental link between depressive symptoms and antisocial behavior during early adolescence. Results indicated that both males and females showed increases in externalizing behavior, while only females exhibited increases in depressive symptoms. In addition, examination of concurrent symptom levels suggests that while levels of antisocial behavior consistently influence levels of depressive symptoms in males, these two conditions become less related over time in females. Moreover, results indicate that at no point do symptoms of either condition appear to be driving subsequent symptoms of the other condition. Further gender differences were also found in the response to a family-focused intervention, with only males showing improvement in depressive symptoms. Theoretical and clinical implications of these findings are discussed.

As these chapters demonstrate, gender impacts growth in a multitude of developmental domains, including the development of emotion and emotional competence. although emotions are, in part, biological, the means of emotions and appropriateness of emotional expression are socialized. In the early years of life, socialization primarily takes place via interactions within the family, and characteristics of both parents and children may affect the process of emotion socialization.

  • Author : National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine
  • Publisher : National Academies Press
  • Release : 2019-07-26
  • ISBN : 0309490111
  • Pages : 493 pages

Download or read book The Promise of Adolescence written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2019-07-26 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adolescenceâ€"beginning with the onset of puberty and ending in the mid-20sâ€"is a critical period of development during which key areas of the brain mature and develop. These changes in brain structure, function, and connectivity mark adolescence as a period of opportunity to discover new vistas, to form relationships with peers and adults, and to explore one's developing identity. It is also a period of resilience that can ameliorate childhood setbacks and set the stage for a thriving trajectory over the life course. Because adolescents comprise nearly one-fourth of the entire U.S. population, the nation needs policies and practices that will better leverage these developmental opportunities to harness the promise of adolescenceâ€"rather than focusing myopically on containing its risks. This report examines the neurobiological and socio-behavioral science of adolescent development and outlines how this knowledge can be applied, both to promote adolescent well-being, resilience, and development, and to rectify structural barriers and inequalities in opportunity, enabling all adolescents to flourish.

With articles written by experts across a variety of disciplines, this encyclopedia delivers insights on the psychology of gender through the lens of developmental science, social science, clinical and counseling psychology, sociology, and more. This encyclopedia will provide librarians, students, and professionals with ready access to up-to-date information that informs some of today’s key contemporary issues and debates. These are the sorts of questions we plan for this encyclopedia to address: What is gender nonconformity? What are some of the evolutionary sex differences between men and women? How does gender-based workplace harassment affect health outcomes? How are gender roles viewed in different cultures? What is third-wave feminism?
