A person‐centered and genetically informed approach toward characterizing multidomain resilience to neighborhood disadvantage in youth

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, EarlyView.
Background Examining resilience to adversity across multiple behavioral domains (e.g., psychological well‐being, social functioning) can better characterize positive development and inform novel prevention and intervention efforts. However, few studies have employed person‐centered methods to examine individual profiles of resilience across multiple ...

The nature and nurture of primary and secondary callous–unemotional traits: evidence from two independent twin samples

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, EarlyView.
Background Callous–unemotional (CU) traits identify youth with more severe and chronic trajectories of conduct problems. However, the etiology of CU traits may be heterogeneous, undermining the search for effective treatments. The level of co‐occurring anxiety has been used to identify “primary” (lower anxiety) versus “secondary” (higher anxiety ...

Marital Status and Unobserved Heterogeneity - Do twins suggest a genetic inheritance? [PDF]

The purpose of this study is to reveal the importance of unobserved heterogeneity on marital status. The results for monozygotic (identical) and dizygotic twins indicate an important genetic component in marital status.

Multivariate maternal effects across the internalizing–externalizing spectrum in childhood: results from the Norwegian mother, father, and child cohort study

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, EarlyView.
Background From a functionalist perspective, parenting behaviors have adaptive functions and are partly expressions of genetic variation. Maternal genes that have effects on children are often referred to as indirect maternal genetic effects. Indirect genetic effects provide a means for measuring the role of parenting without the need for specifying ...
