Developmental Pathways To Conduct Problems
This study tests the predictions made by several causal theories proposing different etiologies for childhood-onset and adolescent-onset conduct problems. It investigates a variety of causal factors proven to be important for the development of antisocial behaviors, specifically …

Developmental Pathways for Children with Disruptive Behavior Disorders
… model tested in this study proposed two broad pathways leading to the development of disruptive behavior disorders. Each pathway was characterized by an atrisk child temperament, negative reactivity and psychopathy, which when embedded in an at-risk environment, would result in conduct …

Differential Effects of Individual Factors on the Developmental Pathways of Depression
… used growth mixture modeling to investigate the developmental pathways of depressive symptoms across adolescence and emerging adulthood (ages 12-25 years) using a nationally representative sample (N = 20,394). Four unique non-linear trajectories were found: low-decreasing (normative), …

Understanding Developmental Pathways to Risk and Vulnerability in Childhood and Adolescence
… and environmental factors interact to shape developmental outcomes in children and adolescents was explored. Academic and emotional adjustment outcomes were considered. Of particular concern were interactions between personal vulnerabilities, environmental resources, and environmental risk …

Getting out of trouble: understanding developmental pathways from early adolescence to adulthood
… grew up, and these differences influenced their developmental trajectories. All of the respondents were exposed to multiple environmental and personal risk factors. However, this did not, in and of itself, prevent them from thriving in early adulthood. Instead, it appears to be the cumulative …

An examination of parent-child interactions and developmental pathways of emotion regulation
… & Smyke, 2009), the current study examined pathways through which quality of parent-child interactions impacted later emotion regulation. The effect of attention regulation on emotion regulation was also considered. Participants in the analysis included families from the longitudinal …

Developmental Pathways to Psychopathic Traits in Caucasian and African American Juvenile Offenders
… traits in youth, may constitute a distinct developmental pathway to aggressive behavior. However, ethnic groups are understudied in this literature such that it is unclear whether the correlates of psychopathic traits (i.e., violence, aggression, emotional processing deficits) are equally …

Targeting of specific developmental pathways to understand dendritic cell heterogeneity and function
… functions. However, the specific signaling pathways and transcription factors involved in DC subset differentiation and the precise functions of these subsets are not well understood. Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (PDCs) are a subset of dendritic cells that are specialized at the secretion of …

The Developmental Pathways and Treatment Approaches for Maladaptive Perfectionism in Undergraduate Student Athletes
<p>Developmental and contextual factors may largely contribute to how an undergraduate student athlete develops maladaptive perfectionism (MP) within his or her athletic performance. Being able to understand different possible etiologies of MP will provide enriching clinical information to tailor …

DEVELOPMENTAL PATHWAYS BETWEEN LOW BIRTH WEIGHT STATUS AND CHILDREN’S ACADEMIC AND SOCIOEMOTIONAL COMPETENCE: THE ROLE OF PARENTING PROCESSES AS A MODERATOR
… weight (MLBW), parenting factors, and children’s developmental outcomes within an at-risk sample (N= 1,809), using secondary data from Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing (FFCW) study. Of particular interest was whether parenting factors moderate the associations between MLBW and indicators of …

Genetic analysis of deltex, a gene involved in the development of Drosophila melanogaster
… of one of the sets of genes that control the developmental pathways that specify cell fate decisions in Drosophila melanogaster. The goal of this research was to use a genetic approach to identify and characterize a gene that functions with Notch in a cell fate pathway. A candidate was found …

Psychoanalysis and Asexuality: An Exploration of The Phenomenon and Implications for Therapeutic Work Using A Psychoanalytic Theoretical Framework
… and proposes three hypotheses in the form of developmental pathways to understand the diverse range of sexual and gender identity expression in the Asexual community. The consideration of these developmental pathways re-evaluates the psychoanalytic understanding lack of sexual desire – beyond …

Structural Basis for Dishevelled-2 Association to the Plasma Membrane
… (Wnt) signaling pathway is one of the critical developmental pathways for control of cell differentiation, proliferation, and cell growth. The DEP domain, located on the C-terminus of Dishevelled (Dvl), plays a role in cytoplasm-membrane association, which branches the canonical and …

Roots and Pathways to Secure and Transformational Leadership
… secure or insecure beginnings and tracked developmental pathways toward secure and transformational leadership behaviour. The 12 participants shared their views on diverse leadership topics and their life history in two interviews. The participants aged 50-67 fulfilled the selection …

COMPARATIVE CELL BASED FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS OF KEY WNT/BETA-CATENIN PATHWAY GENES AND GENE MUTATIONS
… pathway has many roles including regulation of developmental pathways, cell proliferation, and homeostasis of adult tissues. Wnt/Beta-catenin signaling activity depends on the stability and localization of Beta-catenin in the cell. In the absence of a Wnt-signal, Beta-catenin, which plays an …

Identification and Characterization of EFL-3, a C. Elegans E2F Transcription Factor
… the first example in which these two major developmental pathways—-E2F and Hox—-are able to directly regulate the same target gene. Our studies demonstrate that LIN-39 and EFL-3 function in a cell type-specific context to regulate transcription of the egl-1 BH3 only cell death gene and …

Studying early development using droplet single-cell RNA sequencing
… but also with a view to reversing typical developmental pathways for regenerative medicine. However, studying development in vivo is challenging due to the very high degree of spatial complexity in an embryo, and the limited amount of biological material that is actually present in these …
