“…In this sample of White, rural families, mothers' positive communication with young children buffered the deleterious association between fathers' use of corporal punishment and children's later externalizing problems. A recent meta‐analysis showed that although maternal sensitivity has been studied more often than paternal sensitivity, both affect children's well‐being (Johnson, Hawes, Eisenberg, Kohlhoff, & Dudeney, ).…”

The primary purpose of this review was to examine theory and research published during the past decade that focused on family processes and children's and adolescents' well‐being. Scholarship focused on family processes and child and adolescent well‐being made significant and exciting advances during this decade based on several key advancements. In addition to a brief introduction and a conclusion, this decade in review is organized into four sections. In the first section, advances made in the literature because of increased attention to complexity and specificity are illustrated. The second section describes advances that were made because of increased attention to family processes in diverse families. Diversity in the samples of families studied, extensions in family process models, and the revisioning of grand theories using a diversity lens that were used to conceptualize family processes are detailed. In the third section, the importance of time in the study of family processes and child and adolescent well‐being is described. The emphasis on families' daily lives is noted. In addition, prospective considerations and studies of change over time are highlighted. Strengths in family functioning are detailed in the fourth section of this article: positivity, regulatory processes, and family organization. These three areas were selected to elaborate the idea that one of the major advancements in the family process literature during the past decade was an emphasis on family strengths. This review concludes with a commentary regarding how conceptual and methodological advancements during the past decade can guide future scholarship.

“…Emotion socialization denotes the processes by which children achieve emotional competence through social and emotional interactions with others (Grusec, 2011). During the past two decades, numerous studies have examined the association between parental emotion socialization and externalizing child behavior problems (Eisenberg, Cumberland & Spinrad, 1998;Gottman, Katz & Hooven, 1997;Johnson, Hawes, Eisenberg, Kohlhoff & Dudeney, 2017;Morris, Silk, Steinberg, Myers & Robinson, 2007), but no studies have replicated these findings in a Norwegian sample. Emotion understanding is typically described as an ability to understand one's own and other's emotions (Eisenberg et al, 1998), and is related to both externalizing and internalizing problems in children (Bender, Pons, Harris, Esbjørn & Reinholdt-Dunne, 2015;Southam-Gerow & Kendall, 2000, 2002Trentacosta & Fine, 2010).…”

“…As in Fabes et al (1990), mean response scores were calculated within each subscale across the 12 items. Although widely used (Johnson, Hawes, Eisenberg, Kohlhoff, & Dudeney, 2017), to our knowledge, there are no available norms for CCNES. Supportive and unsupportive parental responses and the length of the adoptive parent-child relationship were the variables that characterized the child's postadoption-related experiences.…”

Objective To explore potential postadoption moderators of the link between preadoption experiences and adoptees' social competence. Background In the context of the limited and inconsistent knowledge about adopted children's social competence, our hypotheses concern the interplay between preadoption parental neglect and adoptive parents' emotion socialization practices. Method With adopters as informants, the social competence of 97 Portuguese school‐age children was evaluated in terms of social skills and competing problem behaviors, using the Social Skills Improvement System‐Rating Scale. Children's preadoption experiences (using a sociodemographic questionnaire) and parental emotion socialization (evaluated by the Coping with Children's Negative Emotions Scale) were also assessed. Results Time since adoption and unsupportive adoptive parents' responses moderated the relationship between preadoption parental neglect and adoptees' social skills. Unsupportive adoptive parents' responses exacerbated the effects of preadoption neglect. This moderation was stronger with longer postadoption time. Conclusion Added to preadoption parental neglect, unsupportive adoptive parenting accentuates the risks for adoptees' social competence. Implications Adoptive parents should be informed that socialization practices concerning children's negative emotions are associated with adopted children's social competence.
