Youth reported on parental monitoring, peer affiliations, prosocial behavior, psychopathology, and impulsivity. At both timepoints, greater parental monitoring was indirectly associated with more prosocial behavior and less internalizing symptoms, externalizing symptoms, and impulsivity via fewer rule-breaking peer affiliations and more positive peer affiliations. Although parental monitoring declined and rule-breaking peer affiliations increased over time, indirect effects through rule-breaking peer affiliations were stronger at the second than first timepoint. Indirect effects through positive peer affiliations, and direct effects of parental monitoring and peer affiliations, remained stable. These findings suggest that early adolescence may be a period when parental monitoring becomes increasingly important for peer affiliations and positive youth adjustment.

However, the proportion of men and women can vary substantially within the same category (e.g., biology vs. physics). Accordingly, this study examined heterogeneous developmental trajectories of adolescents' career preferences using data from a representative sample of German academic-track 9th-12th-grade students (<i>N</i> = 4,759, 56% female). We linked adolescents' career preferences with census data on the proportion of women in each preferred occupation. Fifty-two percent of the participants aspired to a gender-segregated career by 12th grade. Growth mixture analyses revealed five distinct developmental patterns: stable preferences for <i>male-dominated</i> (21%, <i>n</i> = 920), <i>female-dominated</i> (22%, <i>n</i> = 983), or <i>gender-neutral</i> careers (48%, <i>n</i> = 2,276), and shifts from <i>male-to-female-dominated</i> (6%, <i>n</i> = 280) or <i>neutral-to-male-dominated</i> (6%, <i>n</i> = 300) career aspirations. These patterns predicted differences in mean level and growth of subject-specific academic beliefs, the gender ratios of subsequent choices of advanced math or language arts classes, and more gender-typical university majors. Aspiring to <i>male-dominated</i> careers related to positive academic development in the math domain; aspiring to <i>female-dominated</i> careers related to positive development in the verbal domain. Boys aspiring to <i>neutral or female-dominated</i> careers experienced more positive development in the verbal domain than girls. Highly performing girls in math tended to change to <i>male-dominated</i> careers later in school, but highly performing boys in math were on a <i>stable-male</i> trajectory throughout high school.

Expectant fathers reported prenatally on a series of intrapersonal, relational, and contextual variables indicative of their preparation for fatherhood. Fathers also reported on their paternal engagement in early infancy when children were 3-6 months of age. Mothers reported on children's socioemotional competence when they were approximately 12-18 months old.

Results indicated that children of fathers in the high readiness profile showed more optimal socioemotional competence compared to children whose fathers were in the low and mixed readiness profiles. Indirect effects from profile membership to socioemotional competence via paternal engagement were not supported, but fathers in the low readiness profile did engage in less caregiving with their children relative to fathers in other profiles.
