Thorough. Accurate. Reliable. Engaging. These are just a few words
used by adopters and reviewers of Child Development. The
topically-organized 16th edition continues with Santrock's highly
contemporary tone and focus, featuring over 1,000 new citations.
The popular Connections theme shows students the different aspects
of children's development to help them better understand the
concepts. Used by hundreds of thousands of students over fourteen
editions, the proven learning goals system provides a clear roadmap
to course mastery. The new Guide to Diversity, Equity and
Inclusion, found in the preface, highlights the many updates the
authors have made in these critical areas.
* Provides much-needed perspective on parenting in low- and
middle-income countries, where the majority of parenting research
still focuses on WEIRD (Western, educated, industrialized, rich,
democratic) countries. * Compares data about four specific domains
of parenting (Caregiving, Discipline, Environment and Public
Health) in relation to development in children 1-5 years of age in
more than 50 countries, advancing knowledge of both parenting and
child development in diverse LMIC contexts. * The book is timely
and particularly needed as researchers and practitioners
increasingly emphasize the importance of understanding how
parenting and child development are influenced by cultural contexts

This book examines the effects of social relations during primary
school on children’s neurobiology and pathways to maladaptation.
It explores the ways in which after the transition to primary
education children, supervised by teachers, need to function with
their peers. The volume addresses issues affecting 10% to 20% of
children who become poorly accepted or victimized by peers, receive
low support by teachers or even have conflictual relations with
teachers, and may perceive the classroom as a whole as
nonsupportive. Key areas of coverage include: Detrimental
effects of such social experiences, providing an overview of how
such experiences affect children’s neurobiology factors to
understand why these children develop maladaptive outcomes.
Manifestations of social relations, their complexity,
interrelations, and pathways leading to the maladaptive outcomes.
How genetic factors may evoke children’s social environment and
make them susceptible to its impact (e.g., findings on DNA
methylation at both epigenome-wide level as well as on particular
loci on candidate genes). Links between social environmental
stressors and the psychophysiology of elementary school children
and reviews both links with the autonomic nervous system as well as
with the HPA-axis. The impact of social experiences on
neurocognitive function development, decision making, and
structural and functional brain development and discusses
implications for research, prevention, and intervention. Biosocial
Interplay During Elementary School is a must-have resource for
researchers, professors, and graduate students as well as
clinicians and other professionals in clinical child, school, and
developmental psychology, educational psychology/policy and
politics, social work, neuroscience, public health, and all related
disciplines.
This book examines the complex impact of parenting stress and the
effects of its transmission on young children's development and
well-being (e.g., emotion self-regulation; executive functioning;
maltreatment; future parenting practices). It analyzes current
findings on acute and chronic psychological and socioeconomic
stressors affecting parents, including those associated with
poverty and cultural disparities, pregnancy and motherhood, and
caring for children with developmental disabilities. Contributors
explore how parental stress affects cognitive, affective,
behavioral, and neurological development in children while
pinpointing core adaptation, resilience, and coping skills parents
need to reduce abusive and other negative behaviors and promote
optimal outcomes in their children. These nuanced bidirectional
perspectives on parent/child dynamics aim to inform clinical
strategies and future research targeting parental stress and its
cyclical impact on subsequent generations. Included in the
coverage: Parental stress and child temperament. How social
structure and culture shape parental strain and the well-being of
parents and children. The stress of parenting children with
developmental disabilities. Consequences and mechanisms of child
maltreatment and the implications for parenting. How being mothered
affects the development of mothering. Prenatal maternal stress and
psychobiological development during childhood. Parenting Stress and
Early Child Development is an essential resource for researchers,
clinicians and related professionals, and graduate students in
infancy and early childhood development, developmental psychology,
pediatrics, family studies, and developmental neuroscience.

Children focuses on providing a systematic, integrative approach
that helps students make connections in their learning and
practice. The main goals of this text are to connect with today's
students, connect research on children's development, connecting
the developmental process, and connecting development to real life.
All parents experience stress as they attempt to meet the
challenges of caring for their children. This comprehensive book
examines the causes and consequences of parenting distress, drawing
on a wide array of findings in current empirical research. Kirby
Deater-Deckard explores normal and pathological parenting stress,
the influences of parents on their children as well as children on
their parents, and the effects of biological and environmental
factors. Beginning with an overview of theories of stress and
coping, Deater-Deckard goes on to describe how parenting stress is
linked with problems in adult and child health (emotional problems,
developmental disorders, illness); parental behaviors (warmth,
harsh discipline); and factors outside the family (marital quality,
work roles, cultural influences). The book concludes with a useful
review of coping strategies and interventions that have been
demonstrated to alleviate parenting stress.
