However, few studies have included both e<em>motionally neutral executive functions</em> and <em>emotion-related</em> facets of preschool self-regulation as predictors of children's social development. This study analyses the role of a broad range of self-regulatory facets (inhibitory control, cognitive flexibility, phonological working memory, delay of gratification, and parent-reported effortful control at 3–5 years) in the development of prosocial behavior and peer relationships at ages 5, 7, and 9, while accounting for factors such as negative affectivity, surgency, receptive vocabulary and previous social development, among others. We used data from a large-scale longitudinal sample of 1898 German children (49.72 % females) and conducted growth curve modeling. Prosocial behavior and peer relationships showed a linear as well as a quadratic growth trend. When analysing the association of various self-regulatory facets to social development, cognitive flexibility, delay of gratification, and parent-reported effortful control were found to be significantly associated with the growth pattern of prosocial behavior, even after including controls and accounting for previous social development. Furthermore, these self-regulatory facets also predicted the development of peer relationships in models that treated emotionally neutral and emotion-related facets of self-regulation separately. Yet, in the overall model, the development of peer relationships was only predicted by parent-reported effortful control and this relation also did not remain significant when accounting for controls and previous social development. Overall, the results suggest a complex relation between self-regulatory facets and social development, requiring further investigation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48168,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Developmental Psychology","volume":"103 ","pages":"Article 101924"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145978319","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because these children have deficits in emotion recognition and empathy, incorporating an emotion-focused intervention into PMT may enhance child outcomes. This study describes the development and evaluation of a brief parent-focused emotion-coaching (EC) intervention combined with an evidence-based PMT program, Helping the Noncompliant Child (HNC; McMahon & Forehand, 2003), for use with clinic-referred children (3–7 years) with conduct problems and elevated CU traits (<em>N</em> = 43; <em>M</em> age = 6.08 years, <em>SD</em> = 1.39, 83.7% male).

HNC-EC is one of a growing number of interventions targeting known developmental mechanisms related to child CU traits. We examined parent and child outcomes from a pilot randomized controlled trial comparing HNC-EC and HNC. Parent-report, direct observation, and laboratory measures were employed at baseline, mid-treatment, and post-treatment. Intention-to-treat and completer analyses demonstrated that both HNC and HNC-EC led to significant improvements in children's conduct problems and CU traits. There were relatively few differences between the two groups; however, those differences favored HNC-EC in the domains of conduct problems, emotion recognition, parenting, and parent adjustment. Findings support the effectiveness of both HNC and HNC-EC in addressing the needs of this high-risk population, and suggest the added benefit of incorporating EC into PMT.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48168,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Developmental Psychology","volume":"103 ","pages":"Article 101929"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147384746","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Political engagement can be conceptualized along a spectrum from manifest (civic advocacy) and latent engagement (informal discourse, such as consuming political news or engaging in interpersonal debates). Yet little is known about how these forms of political activities co-occur or are shaped by contextual and individual influences, particularly during periods of heightened political polarization and anti-LGB rhetoric, such as the months leading up to the 2024 U.S. presidential election. To address this gap, the present study employed a person-centered analytic approach to examine profiles of political engagement based on manifest and latent political behaviors, (civic advocacy, attention to political news, interpersonal political conflict), contextual factors (exposure to discrimination, perceived political climate) and individual factors (LGB identity centrality, political hope).
