Article Abstract

Objective: To examine the longitudinal associations between harsh parenting, shyness, and cyber victimization. The present study hypothesized that shyness mediated harsh parenting and cyber victimization.

Methods: Eight hundred and twenty-eight first-year middle school students voluntarily completed three rounds of questionnaires investigating harsh parenting, shyness, and cyber victimization at eight-month intervals. CLPM and RI-CLPM were conducted using SPSS 26.0 and Mplus 8.3.

Results: Shyness was a significant predictor of cyber victimization and harsh parenting had a significant prospective effect on cyber victimization. Shyness mediated longitudinally between harsh parenting and cyber victimization.

Conclusions: In CLPM, T1 and T2 harsh parenting significantly and positively predicted T3 cyber victimization, with shyness serving as a mediator in the longitudinal relationship between harsh parenting and cyber victimization. In RI-CLPM, at the within-individual level, T1 harsh parenting significantly and positively predicted T2 cyber victimization, T2 shyness mediated the relationship between T1 harsh parenting and T3 cyber victimization. This study deepens our understanding of the dynamic relationship among harsh parenting, shyness, and cyber victimization, providing robust empirical evidence and meaningful insights for interventions in adolescent cyber victimization.

This study examined whether parenting behavior serves as an intervening mechanism in accounting for associations between romantic attachment styles and children's emotional reactivity (i.e., anger and distress reactivity).

From public policy to the social sciences, parenting in low-resource contexts is often viewed through a lens of deficit: there is a focus on what parents should be doing differently. We challenge this idea, highlighting the deliberate and rational choices parents with low socioeconomic status often make to navigate their circumstances and give their children the best lives possible under significant constraints. These parenting decisions may go beyond simply ensuring children's survival in harsh contexts.

Seeds should not germinate in conditions unsuitable for seedling growth. Dormancy, which allows seeds to remain inactive in an environment that would otherwise enable germination, helps optimise the timing of germination. Primary dormancy, developed during seed maturation on the parent plant, prevents immediate germination post-dispersal, regardless of external conditions.

Background: Despite having heritability estimates of 80%, ~ 50% cases of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) remain without a genetic diagnosis. Structural variants (SVs) detected using long-read whole genome sequencing (lrWGS) are a relatively new class of variants implicated in neurodevelopmental disorders. Short read sequencing (SRS) and chromosomal microarray (CMA) are unable to resolve these SVs due to their inherent technological limitations.
