This handbook presents the latest theories and findings on
parenting, from the evolving roles and tasks of childrearing to
insights from neuroscience, prevention science, and genetics.
Chapters explore the various processes through which parents
influence the lives of their children, as well as the effects of
parenting on specific areas of child development, such as language,
communication, cognition, emotion, sibling and peer relationships,
schooling, and health. Chapters also explore the determinants of
parenting, including consideration of biological factors, parental
self-regulation and mental health, cultural and religious factors,
and stressful and complex social conditions such as poverty,
work-related separation, and divorce. In addition, the handbook
provides evidence supporting the implementation of parenting
programs such as prevention/early intervention and treatments for
established issues. The handbook addresses the complementary role
of universal and targeted parenting programs, the economic benefits
of investment in parenting programs, and concludes with future
directions for research and practice. Topics featured in the
Handbook include: * The role of fathers in supporting children's
development. * Developmental disabilities and their effect on
parenting and child development. * Child characteristics and their
reciprocal effects on parenting. * Long-distance parenting and its
impact on families. * The shifting dynamic of parenting and
adult-child relationships. * The effects of trauma, such as natural
disasters, war exposure, and forced displacement on parenting. The
Handbook of Parenting and Child Development Across the Lifespan is
an essential reference for researchers, graduate students,
clinicians, and therapists and professionals in clinical child and
school psychology, social work, pediatrics, developmental
psychology, family studies, child and adolescent psychiatry, and
special education.
