“…Though internal consistency reliability for impulsivity remained below 0.60 in eight countries and did not improve with item deletion, the items resulting in the most optimal internal consistency were utilized to compute the Surgency overarching score. Overarching domain scores had good internal consistency reliability across all 14 countries ( Desmarais et al, 2021a , b ).…”

“…The DAQ was developed for use by the parent JETTC project ( Gartstein and Putnam, 2018 ), with preliminary analyses supporting cross-cultural applicability of this instrument ( Kirchhoff et al, 2014 ). The measure has also been used in other studies examining child temperament ( Huitron et al, 2017 ), television exposure and behavioral/emotional dysregulation ( Desmarais et al, 2021a ), and mothers’ socialization goals and ethnotheories ( Majdandzic et al, 2017 ), based on the parent JETTC project.…”

ObjectivesThe present study examined parental sleep-supporting practices during toddlerhood in relation to temperament across 14 cultures. We hypothesized that passive sleep-supporting techniques (e.g., talking, cuddling), but not active techniques (e.g., walking, doing an activity together), would be associated with less challenging temperament profiles: higher Surgency (SUR) and Effortful Control (EC) and lower Negative Emotionality (NE), with fine-grained dimensions exhibiting relationships consistent with their overarching factors (e.g., parallel passive sleep-supporting approach effects for dimensions of NE).MethodsCaregivers (N = 841) across 14 cultures (M = 61 families per site) reported toddler (between 17 and 40 months of age; 52% male) temperament and sleep-supporting activities. Utilizing linear multilevel regression models and group-mean centering procedures, we assessed the role of between- and within-cultural variance in sleep-supporting practices in relation to temperament.ResultsBoth within-and between-culture differences in passive sleep-supporting techniques were associated with temperament attributes, (e.g., lower NE at the between-culture level; higher within-culture EC). For active techniques only within-culture effects were significant (e.g., demonstrating a positive association with NE). Adding sleep-supporting behaviors to the regression models accounted for significantly more between-culture temperament variance than child age and gender alone.ConclusionHypotheses were largely supported. Findings suggest parental sleep practices could be potential targets for interventions to mitigate risk posed by challenging temperament profiles (e.g., reducing active techniques that are associated with greater distress proneness and NE).

“…Finally, children's socioemotional development is the most important theoretical aspect addressed in many works. Preschool age is a critical period for socioemotional development (Desmarais et al, 2021;Wan, 2021). Many Russian parents show their preschoolers cartoons that were made for children in the USSR.…”

Background. The range of digital technologies that children use from an early age has expanded significantly. Most studies demonstrate that preschoolers now spend substantially longer on digital devices and start using them at a younger age. Finding a solution for this challenge has research merits and relevance, as the data on benefits and harm of early preschoolers’ exposure to digital devices is contradictory. This poses a need to determine theoretically sound and practically validated criteria that could guide the duration and quality of children’s exposure to the digital environment. Objective. To review studies that contain recommendations on preschoolers’ exposure to the digital environment, namely, exposure limits and evidence to justify the limitation of preschoolers’ time on digital media. Design. The analysis starts by identifying theoretical foundations that researchers use in their studies of children’s behavior in the digital environment. This is followed by an overview of 40 studies that include research papers, official reports, and methodological recommendations made by healthcare and governmental organizations. Results. The review identified the following ground rules for children’s exposure to the digital environment: to provide for child’s interaction with a digital device, to use educational applications that will develop skills appropriate to the child’s age, to ensure mandatory supervision of children’s engagement by an adult who limits the exposure according to child’s age-related capabilities and creates conditions for active exploration of the real rather than a virtual world. Children’s cognitive development suffers the most from passive intake of digital content. Conclusion. The data herein can help to develop strategies to promote healthy and educational engagement of children with digital devices and media; however, the review highlights the insufficiency of psychophysiological research that would make it possible to practically validate the recommendations on the duration of preschoolers’ exposure to the digital environment.

“…Asimismo, dado que el tiempo de exposición a pantallas está asociado a niveles más altos de emocionalidad negativa, reactividad emocional, agresión y problemas de atención y desregulación emocional tanto en Chile como a nivel global 39 es relevante dar a conocer a los padres las recomendaciones internacionales que indican que los menores de dos años no deberían estar expuestos a pantallas y los preescolares entre dos a cinco años pueden estar expuestos por menos de una hora al día 40 .…”

Los trastornos de regulación son definidos de acuerdo a las guías y sistemas de clasificación actuales como desórdenes en la interacción entre los bebés y sus padres, siendo caracterizados por una tríada sintomática que incluye aspectos del niño, características de los padres y de la interacción parentofilial. Este trastorno puede generar desequilibrio familiar y a largo plazo ser factor de riesgo para trastornos internalizantes y externalizantes, así como de maltrato infantil. El manejo propuesto incluye trabajo con el sistema familiar, anticipando su aparición, considerando las condiciones parentales. Ante un trastorno de regulación se debe tener siempre el foco en la triada sintomática. Los padres o cuidadores de niños y niñas con trastornos de regulación necesitan guía para mejorar su sensibilidad y reacciones hacia las demandas de sus hijos o hijas durante el primer año y así romper la trayectoria del desarrollo de estos trastornos y disminuir su propio estrés para lograr una parentalidad intuitiva exitosa. Se presenta una revisión narrativo-descriptivo de éste, sus asociaciones causales, consecuencias y lineamientos para el tratamiento a la luz del conocimiento actual.
