This longitudinal study examined whether the risk and positive factors contributing to the delinquent behaviors and internalizing
problems of 454 Latino adolescents varied across maternal linguistic acculturation and adolescent gender. Although the level
of cumulative risk to which the 10-to-14-year old adolescents were exposed did not vary by maternal linguistic acculturation,
the factors contributing to their subsequent adjustment 16 months later varied substantially. Multiple regression analyses
showed that for boys, maternal monitoring offset cumulative risk effects in the high acculturation group, but was unrelated
to adjustment in the low acculturation group. Social competence served a protective function for boys in the high acculturation
group, but was detrimental for boys in the low acculturation group and mother-son relationship quality directly predicted
more subsequent delinquent behaviors among boys in the low acculturation group. Maternal monitoring was the only positive
factor contributing to girls’ adjustment, directly predicting fewer delinquent behaviors for all girls.

The aim of the present study was to examine a model positing that association with deviant peers mediates the relation between
adolescent perceived parenting behaviors (maternal monitoring and involvement), the interaction of these parenting behaviors,
and delinquency in a sample of 135 urban African American adolescents (13–19 years of age). Regression analyses revealed a
monitoring by involvement interaction among African American females, suggesting that maternal monitoring may effectively
reduce delinquency among African American female adolescents, and that this reduction may be enhanced by increased maternal
involvement. Among African American males, only the relation between association with deviant peers and delinquency was supported,
suggesting that maternal parenting behaviors may, in isolation, be insufficient in the prevention of delinquent behaviors
in African American male adolescents. The results suggest that the pathways from parenting to association with deviant peers
and delinquency may differ in males and females, and the salience of certain parenting behaviors may differ across gender.

The current study modeled trajectories of substance use from ages 15 to 20 among 1,095 male serious juvenile offenders (M age = 16.54; 42% African-American, 34% Latino, 20% European-American, and 4% other ethnic/racial backgrounds) and prospectively
predicted trajectories from risk and protective factors before and after controlling for time spent in a supervised setting.
Results indicated that supervised time suppressed age-related growth in substance use. Trajectories of offenders with no supervised
time and low levels of supervised time increased in substance use across age, whereas offenders with high levels of supervised
time showed no growth. Almost all risk and protective factors had effects on initial substance use but only adolescent history
of substance use, impulse control, and psychosocial maturity had an effect on change in substance use over time. Findings
highlight the importance of formal sanctions and interventions superimposed on normal developmental processes in understanding
trajectories of substance use among serious juvenile offenders.

This study examined the relationship among pubertal timing, parental control, and problem behaviors. There were 267 participants,
whose ages ranged from 9 to 16 years. Both maternal and paternal psychological control predicted problem behaviors over and
above the effects of behavioral control. For boys, early maturation and high levels of paternal psychological control, whereas
for girls, on-time maturation and low levels of paternal psychological control were associated with low levels of internalizing
problem behaviors. Early maturation and high levels of maternal psychological control predicted high levels of externalizing
problem behaviors. The implications of these findings were discussed in terms of the detrimental effects of psychological
control on adolescent wellbeing, the role that pubertal timing may or may not play during this period, and finally the need
to separately examine fathers’ parenting and mothers’ parenting while investigating the impact of parental control on adolescent
problem behaviors.

Correlations between adolescent and parent reports of adolescent problems are low in magnitude. In community samples adolescents
tend to report more problems than parents and in clinical samples adolescents tend to report fewer problems than parents. Indices of agreement may be biased if some adolescents in a given sample report more problems and
others report fewer problems than parents. In the current study, order and mean agreement between adolescent and maternal
reports of adolescent internalizing and externalizing problems, taking into account the direction of disagreement, was examined
in a community sample of 133 young adolescents and their mothers. Two-thirds to three-quarters of adolescents reported more
problems than mothers. Accounting for the direction of discrepancies resulted in improved agreement between adolescents and
mothers and differing patterns of predictors of discrepancies. Additionally, the results demonstrate the need to control for
relations between adolescent-reported problems and discrepancies when exploring predictors of discrepancies.

Alcohol use is cited as a risk factor for exposure to HIV infection through risky sexual behavior, especially among adolescents. From Social Cognitive Theory, positive outcome expectancies about the use of alcohol have often been presented as a critical aspect of alcohol use. Yet little is known about how they might be related to different aspects of HIV risk. Using latent growth curve modeling with data from 292 American Indian youth across seven years, both alcohol use and positive expectancies increased significantly; a lower-risk group showed significantly slower increases in both. Changes in alcohol use and outcome expectancies were significantly interrelated, providing support for reciprocal influence between the two constructs. Positive alcohol outcome expectancies may provide a preventive intervention point worthy of further consideration as influencing alcohol use and lowering HIV sexual risk among adolescents.Associate Professor at the University of Colorado at Denver and Health Sciences Center.

Differences between proactive and reactive aggression subtypes on self-reported measures of empathy, social competence, and
expectation for reward were examined among 433 middle school students (65.4% White, 33.9% Black). As hypothesized, males scored
higher on proactive and reactive aggression scales and lower on empathy measures than females. K-means cluster analysis yielded the following four distinct groups: reactive, proactive, proactive/reactive aggressive, and
uninvolved. Overall, uninvolved (nonaggressive youth) had higher empathy and social competence scores and lower expectation
of reward for the use of aggression. The reactive and proactive groups did not differ significantly on study variables. Limitations
and implications are discussed.

Greater empirical attention directed toward gender-sensitive assessment strategies that concentrate on family-specific factors
is thought to be both timely and necessary, especially with regard to outcome variables associated with mental health and
substance abuse in at-risk adolescent populations. A sample of 2,646 court-involved adolescents was used to test two competing
models regarding relationships among disruptive family processes, mental health (as both internalizing and externalizing problems),
and substance abuse issues according to gender. The results of multiple group structural equation modeling procedures indicated
that disrupted family processes were significantly associated with higher levels of internalizing problems, externalizing
problems, and substance abuse in both male and female youth. For females, however, disrupted family processes were more related
to internalizing problems and substance abuse than externalizing problems. Further, the relationship between disrupted family
processes and substance abuse was not mediated by mental health issues, indicating a lack of support for the alternative model
tested in this study. Together, the findings underscore the primacy of the family’s impact on issues related to adolescent
development and well-being in tandem with the need for a more gender sensitive approach to the needs of court-involved males
and females.

The present study examined the link between sexual orientation and adjustment in a community sample of 97 sexual minority
(gay male, lesbian, bisexual, and questioning) high school students, taking into account their experiences of peer victimization
and social support within peer and family contexts. Adolescents were identified in a large-scale survey study conducted at
5 high schools. They were matched to a comparison sample of their heterosexual peers. Sexual minority adolescents reported
more externalizing behaviors and depression symptoms than heterosexual youth. Compared to their heterosexual peers, sexual
minority youth reported more sexual harassment, more bullying, less closeness with their mothers, and less companionship with
their best friends. There were no significant differences between gay male, lesbian, bisexual, and questioning adolescents.
Overall, both victimization and social support mediated the link between sexual orientation and psychosocial symptoms. Among
sexual minority youth, the link between social support and externalizing was mediated by experiences of peer victimization.
These findings highlight the contextual risk and protective factors associated with non-heterosexual sexual orientation in
accounting for the emotional and behavioral problems in this population.

The National Household Education Survey, a nationally representative data set (N=4,306 high school students and one parent of each), was analyzed to describe characteristics of adolescents, the nature of
their service activities, and academic, behavioral and civic outcomes associated with service (voluntary compared to school-required
and by type of service). Participation in any service is associated with positive outcomes whether service is voluntary or
required. Adolescents who worked directly with individuals in need had better academic adjustment; those who worked for organizations
had better civic outcomes than adolescents who performed other types of service. Findings are discussed in terms of their
significance for adolescent development, educational policy, and the use of large national data sets to examine service participation.

A large volume of research has investigated interrelations among adolescent risk behaviors. Although several theoretical accounts
have been proposed, researchers have not directly examined hypotheses for why risk behaviors are linked. In the present paper, a distinction is drawn between predictive factors that explain variance
in risk behaviors and “linkage factors” which may provide an explanation for why risk behaviors are interrelated. The relevance
of linkage factors to risk behavior research, theory, and practice is described. Further, a simple to use and easy to interpret
analytic technique for exploring linkage-related issues is illustrated. Using this technique, hypotheses regarding the role
of predictors in explaining linkages among risk behaviors can be tested directly. The proposed line of inquiry will provide
valuable input for intervention efforts and theoretically relevant information concerning linkages among adolescent risk behaviors.

Beliefs about the consequences of using alcohol, alcohol expectancies, are powerful predictors of underage drinking. The Alcohol Expectancies Questionnaire-Adolescent form (AEQ-A) has been widely used to measure expectancies in youth. Despite its broad use, the factor structure of the AEQ-A has not been firmly established. It is also not known whether it assesses similar constructs (i.e., measurement invariance) between boys and girls. This article reports on a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) of a shortened version of the AEQ-A with 310 youth, ages 10–16, to determine whether a two factor, positive and negative expectancy structure held for this sample and to test measurement invariance across gender. The results support evidence of a 2-factor, positive and negative structure for the abbreviated version of the AEQ-A and show that it assesses equivalent alcohol expectancy constructs among males and females. These findings have important implications for cognitive based approaches to alcohol prevention.Florida State University College of Social Work.

Many studies have documented the ways in which shyness can be a barrier to personal well-being and social adjustment throughout
childhood and adolescence; however, less is known regarding shyness in emerging adulthood. Shyness as experienced during emerging
adulthood may continue to be a risk factor for successful development. The purpose of this study was to compare shy emerging
adults with their non-shy peers in (a) internalizing behaviors, (b) externalizing behaviors, and (c) close relationships.
Participants included 813 undergraduate students (500 women, 313 men) from a number of locations across the United States.
Results showed that relatively shy emerging adults, both men and women, had more internalizing problems (e.g., anxious, depressed,
low self-perceptions in multiple domains), engaged in fewer externalizing behaviors (e.g., less frequent drinking), and experienced
poorer relationship quality with parents, best friends, and romantic partners than did their non-shy peers.

This study examined the relationship between limited English proficiency status, and internalizing and externalizing behaviors
among a sample of Latino/a children (N = 2,840) from the US Department of Education’s Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, Kindergarten (ECLS-K) data set. Results
of cross sectional regression and hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) analyses suggest that there is a positive relationship
between limited English proficiency and externalizing symptoms, particularly by third grade. Additionally, sex and place of
birth also helped to explain externalizing behaviors at various time points in the models. Place of birth and family poverty
were significantly associated with internalizing symptoms. Implications for future research and interventions related to internalizing
and externalizing behavior among the Latino/a school aged population are discussed.

Community, demographic, familial, and personal risk factors of childhood depressive symptoms were examined from an ecological
theoretical approach using hierarchical linear modeling. Individual-level data were collected from an ethnically diverse (73%
African-American) community sample of 197 children and their parents; community-level data were obtained from the U.S. Census
regarding rates of community poverty and unemployment in participants’ neighborhoods. Results indicated that high rates of
community poverty and unemployment, children’s depressive attributional style, and low levels of self-perceived competence
predict children’s depressive symptoms, even after accounting for demographic and familial risk factors, such as parental
education and negative parenting behaviors. The effect of negative parenting behaviors on depressive symptoms was partially
mediated by personal variables like children’s self-perceived competence. Recommendations for future research, intervention
and prevention programs are discussed.

Although numerous cross-national studies have assessed life satisfaction among adults, similar studies using adolescent samples
have been rare. To address this shortage of research, a total of 1338 youth adolescents from two individualistic nations (Ireland,
USA) and two collectivistic nations (China, South Korea) were administered the Multidimensional Students’ Life Satisfaction Scale (MSLSS: Huebner, 1994) to assesses general life satisfaction and satisfaction with family, friends, school, self, and living environment. Responses
were analyzed to assess potential cross-national differences in (a) mean levels of life satisfaction, and (b) response styles,
specifically acquiescence and extreme responding. Mean scores revealed positive ratings by adolescents from all four nations
across all domains, with the exceptions of satisfaction with school experiences (Ireland, South Korean, USA), living environment
(China, South Korea), self (South Korea), and general life satisfaction (South Korea). Results also revealed significant response
style differences across all MSLSS domains. Significant gender and gender-by-nation effects were observed for both mean score
and response style differences, although the effect sizes were small. The implications of these findings were discussed, particularly
with respect to “individualistic” vs. “collectivistic” cultural differences.

Fifty-two mother-adolescent dyads (mean adolescent age = 16.3) participated in an observational study of communication about
health topics. The aim of the study was to examine mother-adolescent conversations about health issues—drugs/alcohol, sexuality,
nutrition/exercise—to determine the extent to which the mothers treat these issues similarly. Across conversations, mothers
spent more time asking questions than lecturing or discussing negative consequences. Mothers discussed negative consequences
less in the nutrition/exercise and sexuality conversations than in the drug/alcohol conversation. Mothers asked fewer questions
when discussing nutrition/exercise than drugs/alcohol, and lectured more in the nutrition/exercise conversation than in the
sexuality conversation. The results of this study have implications for intervention programmers advocating in the media that
parents “talk to your kids” about these health issues.

In the present longitudinal 3-wave study of 1274 adolescents and young adults, aged 12–24 at the 1st wave, it is examined
whether youngsters from intact versus postdivorce families show long-term differences in internalizing and externalizing problems.
Furthermore, possible differences in the development of this problem behavior between offspring from intact and postdivorce
families are examined, i.e., possible differences in growth curves of internalizing and externalizing problems are investigated.
Longitudinal multilevel analyses reveal long-term differences in internalizing and externalizing problems according to family
structure. Adolescents and young adults growing up in postdivorce families display more internalizing and externalizing problem
behavior than youngsters of intact families. The development of these 2 types of problem behavior does not differ by gender
or family structure. That is, the shape of the growth curves of internalizing and externalizing problem behavior is similar
for boys and girls and also for youngsters from intact and postdivorce families.

One hundred seventy-four college students and a subset of their mothers and fathers provided ratings of college students’
emotional and behavioral functioning. College students and their mothers and fathers demonstrated variable levels of correspondence
in their ratings of college students’ internalizing and externalizing behavior problems. Similar findings were noted with
t-test comparisons, with college students rating themselves as experiencing significantly higher levels of behavior problems
than did their mothers and fathers. Further, college students’ ratings of their mothers’ and fathers’ parenting and their
perceptions of their parents predicted significantly their ratings of their own behavior problems. Although mothers’ communication
reciprocity and perceptions of their college students served as significant predictors of mothers’ ratings, a different pattern
of results occurred with paternal variables. Overall, these findings further the understanding of correspondence and predictors
of cross-informant ratings of college students’ emotional and behavioral functioning.

The present study examined cultural orientation as a protective factor against tobacco and marijuana smoking for African American
young women (ages 18 to 25). African American college students (N=145) from a predominantly White university were administered subscales from the African American Acculturation Scale-Revised
(AAAS-R); the shortened Individualism/Collectivism (INDCOL) Scale; a Tobacco and Drug Use Survey; and a background survey.
Multiple logistic regression was conducted using cultural orientation variables as predictors and smoking status (i.e., tobacco
and marijuana) as the criterion. It was expected that young women who endorsed traditional African American cultural characteristics
(i.e., religious beliefs, health, family values, and socialization) and were collectivistic in their community (i.e., cultural
interdependency) and familial (i.e., familial interdependency) interactions would be less likely to smoke. Results show that
traditional religious beliefs and practice was protective against tobacco smoking for this sample of young women. Familial
interdependency (e.g., supportive exchanges between friends, and consultation and sharing with parents), and traditional religious
beliefs and practices surfaced as protective factors against marijuana smoking. Traditional health beliefs and practices was
a risk factor for both tobacco and marijuana smoking. The implications signal the need for smoking prevention and cessation
programs to focus on interpersonal factors which may strengthen African American young women’s religious and familial bonding.
