  Abstract: On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) a global pandemic (WHO, 2020), and most states in the United States began implementing stay-at-home orders (SAHOs) to help mitigate community spread (Moreland et al., 2020). Schools, day cares, and businesses closed, bans and/or limits were placed on large social gatherings, and sporting events were canceled. Such drastic changes were likely to lead to increased home stress due to factors including, for some, the newfound need to homeschool while balancing working from home or loss of income. In combination with pandemic-related anxiety, these stressors may impact parents' and children's mental health. Currently ... Read More

  Abstract: Theories of developmental psychopathology emphasize the enduring influence of early experiences in parent–child relationships on mental health across the lifespan (Appleyard et al., 2010; McLaughlin, 2016). Child maltreatment represents an early experience that is among the most detrimental to children's psychological, social, and biological development (Cicchetti & Toth, 2015). Maltreatment disproportionately affects children and families of color (e.g., Cicchetti & Toth, 2016) and can co-occur with other forms of childhood adversity that differentially affect youth of color, including poor housing, low socioeconomic status, and exposure to community violence. This differential exposure to maltreatment has been ... Read More

  Abstract: Fear is generally a beneficial mechanism that helps us to avoid potentially threatening stimuli (Gullone, 2000). For instance, snakes, which can pose a threat to humans, are one of the most commonly feared animals among adults across a number of cultures (e.g., Davey, 1994; Depla et al., 2008; Pagani et al., 2007). However, infants and younger children do not typically show fear responses to these animals (DeLoache & LoBue, 2009; LoBue et al., 2013). An accumulated body of similar evidence has led researchers to argue that a fear of snakes is not innate, but that a perceptual bias towards snakes coupled with experiences hearing fear-relevant information may play a large role in fear development (LoBue & Adolph ...

  Abstract: A key insight from research on parent–child relationships is that children benefit when they are able to use parent figures as a haven of safety when distressed and a secure base from which to explore the environment (Ainsworth, 1989). Securely attached children are confident in the availability and responsiveness of their caregivers and readily use them as secure bases (Ainsworth, 1989; Bowlby, 1969). Substantial research supports the competence hypothesis—that is, the idea that the formation of a secure attachment provides the foundation for the emergence of social, emotional, and cognitive competence (Weinfield et al., 2008). For example, children who are securely attached are more likely to be accepted by peers ... Read More
