Pubertal Timing and Tempo: Associations With Childhood Maltreatment [PDF]

Journal of Research on Adolescence, 2014
This study examined pubertal timing and tempo in a sample of 445 adolescents (53% male), using both variable‐centered (latent growth curve) and person‐centered (latent class) approaches, to discern the pubertal development trajectories associated with the experience of maltreatment. Results from the variable‐centered analyses indicated a slower initial
