The novelty lies in the incorporation of factors that address violence from teachers to students, from students to teachers and coexistence management. A total of 1072 teachers from the Northern, Central, Southern and Metropolitan macro-zones of Chile participated, with ages between 22 and 76 years (M=44.56; SD=10.52) and from 1 to 54 years of work (M=17.14; SD=10.38). 76.3% identify with the female gender and 23.7% with the male gender. Of the teachers, 78.4% worked mainly in the classroom and the rest performed managerial or administrative functions outside the classroom in the school. The school violence and coexistence management questionnaire for teachers (VI+GEC) was used. The validity of the scale was demonstrated by means of Confirmatory Factor Analysis, convergent validity analysis and discriminant validity. Reliability was demonstrated by means of McDonald’s omega coefficient in all the factors of the scale. An analysis with Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) found a mean, and statistically significant influence of the perception of coexistence management on the perception of school violence. The findings are discussed in terms of previous research on school violence and coexistence management.}, journal={FRONTIERS IN PSYCHOLOGY}, author={Munoz-Troncoso, Flavio and Halberstadt, Amy and Cuadrado-Gordillo, Isabel and Riquelme-Mella, Enrique and Miranda-Zapata, Edgardo and Legaz-Vadimisrkaya, Ekaterina and Sepulveda-Bernales, Valeria and Salamanca-Aroca, Claudia and Munoz-Troncoso, Gerardo}, year={2024}, month={Apr} }

Participants judged Black boys as taller than White boys, despite no real size differences (Studies 1A and 1B), and even when boys were matched in age (Study 1B). The size bias persisted when participants viewed computer-generated faces that varied only in apparent race (Study 2A) and extended to perceptions of physical strength, with Black boys judged as stronger than White boys (Study 2B). The size bias was associated with threat-related perceptions, including beliefs that Black boys were less innocent than White boys (Study 3). Finally, the size bias was moderated by a valid threat signal (i.e., anger expressions, Studies 4A and 4B). Thus, adult-like threat stereotypes are perpetrated upon Black boys, leading them to be erroneously perceived as more physically formidable than White boys. }, journal={PERSONALITY AND SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY BULLETIN}, author={Freiburger, Erin and Sim, Mattea and Halberstadt, Amy G. and Hugenberg, Kurt}, year={2023}, month={May} }

These, in turn, will impact their other TSEL competencies in racially informed ways, thus reducing opportunity gaps between White and Black youth. We provide theoretical and empirical support about the ways in which racism consciousness can be embedded within the 5 socio-emotional competencies.

Systematic, balanced designs are rare, and are comprised of adults viewing adults. The present study expands the questions of racialized emotion recognition accuracy and anger bias to the world of children. Findings that adults demonstrate either less emotion accuracy and/or greater anger bias for Black versus White children could potentially explain some of the large racialized disciplinary discrepancies in schools. To test whether racialized emotion recognition accuracy and anger bias toward children exists, we asked 178 prospective teachers to complete an emotion recognition task comprised of 72 children's facial expressions depicting six emotions and divided equally by race (Black, White) and gender (female, male). We also assessed implicit bias via the child race Implicit Association Test and explicit bias via questionnaire. Multilevel modeling revealed nuanced racialized emotion recognition accuracy with a race by gender interaction, but clear racialized anger bias toward both Black boys and girls. Both Black boys and Black girls were falsely seen as angry more often than White boys and White girls. Higher levels of either implicit or explicit bias did not increase odds of Black children being victim to anger bias, but instead decreased odds that White children would be misperceived as angry.

Little is known about the ways in which parents transmit these models of emotions to children. Cultural products, such as popular storybooks, may serve to provide important tools of transmission. Two studies examined similarities and differences in the extent to which children's books from these cultural contexts depict emotions. In Study 1, U.S., Russian American, and Russian parents described the extent to which books that they recently read to their children depict positive and negative emotions. Although no differences emerged for depictions of positive emotions, U.S. parents described reading books with lower levels of negative emotions than Russian parents, with Russian American parents in between. These differences were partially due to parental beliefs about sadness. In Study 2, verbal and nonverbal depictions of emotions were compared for sets of popular children's books from the U.S. and Russia. U.S. books verbally referenced anger and sadness and depicted happiness, anger, and fear faces less frequently than Russian books. Taken together, these studies suggest that American and Russian parents value and expose their children to different depictions of emotions, particularly negative emotions. Future studies need to examine the ways in which children in these cultural contexts interpret depictions of emotions.

Parent-child dyads (n = 101; 52% female; 81% European American, 9% Asian/Asian American, 5% African American, 4% Latino) completed lab-based assessments at baseline and 3 years later. Results indicate that we can reliably assess and differentiate six parental responses to children's ingratitude (i.e., parental self-blame, distress, punishment, instruction, let-it-be, and give-in) using a novel scenario-based measure. Moreover, parents of older children reported more self-blame, distress, and let-it-be responses than those of younger children. More frequent distress and less frequent punishing and giving-in responses to ingratitude by parents predicted greater parent-reported child gratitude at follow-up whereas more frequent distress and less instruction and giving-in responses predicted greater child-reported gratitude at follow-up. Punishing responses also predicted greater later internalizing symptoms in children, whereas self-blame and distress responses predicted lower subsequent symptoms. Collectively, findings showed that parental responses to children's ingratitude predicted child gratitude and internalizing symptoms 3 years later, even after controlling for other factors comprising the parent ecology.

We then introduce a new measure of emotion understanding (Perceptions of Children's Emotions in Videos, Evolving and Dynamic task) that includes assessment of six emotions portrayed dynamically over rounds by 72 child actors, balancing child race and gender within each emotion, and certified by Facial Action Coding System coders.

Results revealed that, even when controlling for teachers’ age and gender, teachers’ belief that children’s anger was useful and valuable in the school setting was associated with teachers’ accuracy at recognizing anger expressions in children’s faces.

This study aimed to (a) test whether children produced more components of a prototypic emotional facial expression during situations judged or self-reported to involve the corresponding emotion than situations involving other emotions (termed “intersituational specificity”), (b) test whether children produced more components of the prototypic expression corresponding to a situation’s judged or self-reported emotion than components of other emotional expressions (termed “intrasituational specificity”), and (c) examine coherence between children’s self-reported emotional experience and observers’ judgments of children’s emotions. One hundred and 20 children (ages 7–9) were video-recorded during a discussion with their mothers. Emotion ratings were obtained for children in 441 episodes. Children’s nonverbal behaviors were judged by observers and coded by FACS-trained researchers. Children’s self-reported emotion corresponded significantly to observers’ judgments of joy, anger, fear, and sadness but not surprise. Multilevel modeling results revealed that children produced joy facial expressions more in joy episodes than nonjoy episodes (supporting intersituational specificity for joy) and more joy and surprise expressions than other emotional expressions in joy and surprise episodes (supporting intrasituational specificity for joy and surprise). However, children produced anger, fear, and sadness expressions more in noncorresponding episodes and produced these expressions less than other expressions in corresponding episodes.

Forty preservice teachers identified the emotions expressed in 20 Black and White male and female faces in order to assess racialized emotion accuracy and anger bias; participants also judged hostility in videos of 4 Black and White boys’ misbehaviors with peers in school in order to assess racialized attributions. We conducted a series of multilevel models with assessments of Black and White faces (or boys) nested within preservice teachers. Results indicated that emotions in Black faces were less accurately recognized than emotions in White faces; Black faces were more likely to be seen as angry even when they were not, compared to White faces; and boys’ misbehaviors were perceived as more hostile than those of White boys.

Experiencing emotion is increasingly understood to include becoming aware of, accepting, and managing one's emotions. Effective communication of emotion involves multimodal signaling rather than reliance on a single modality such as facial expressions. Emotion understanding includes both recognizing others’ emotion signals and inferring probable causes and consequences of their emotions.

Parent-child dyads (N = 101; children aged 6–9; 52% girls; 80% Caucasian; 85% mothers) participated in a laboratory visit and parents also completed a 7-day online diary regarding children’s gratitude. Decomposing specific indirect effects within a structural equation model, we found that parents high in gratitude were more likely to set goals to use niche selection as a gratitude socialization strategy, and thereby more likely to place their children in gratitude-related activities. Placement in these activities, in turn, was associated with more frequent expression of gratitude in children.

To date, however, no study has combined parents' emotion-related beliefs, behaviors, and regulation strategies in one model to assess their cumulative-as well as unique-contributions to children's emotion regulation. We considered the 2 components that have recently been distinguished: emotion regulation and emotional lability. We predicted that mothers' beliefs about the value of and contempt for children's emotions, mothers' supportive and nonsupportive reactions to their children's emotions, as well as mothers' use of cognitive reappraisal and suppression of their own emotions would each contribute unique variance to their children's emotion regulation and lability, as assessed by children's teachers. The study sample consisted of an ethnically and socioeconomically diverse group of 165 mothers and their third-grade children. Different patterns emerged for regulation and lability: Controlling for family income, child gender, and ethnicity, only mothers' lack of suppression as a regulatory strategy predicted greater emotion regulation in children, whereas mothers' valuing of children's emotions, mothers' lack of contempt for children's emotions, mothers' use of cognitive reappraisal to reinterpret events, and mothers' lack of emotional suppression predicted less lability in children. These findings support the divergence of emotion regulation and lability as constructs and indicate that, during middle childhood, children's lability may be substantially and uniquely affected by multiple forms of parental socialization.}, number={2}, journal={EMOTION}, author={Rogers, Megan L. and Halberstadt, Amy G. and Castro, Vanessa L. and MacCormack, Jennifer K. and Garrett-Peters, Patricia}, year={2016}, month={Mar}, pages={280–291} }

Parents described children as grateful for both tangible and intangible gifts, and identified multiple cognitive, emotional, and behavioral aspects of gratitude in their children. Gratitude was understood to be a momentary experience, a more enduring feeling, and a way of being, suggesting a more continuous perspective regarding the duration of gratitude.

This study examined ethnicity (African American, European American, and Lumbee American Indian) and child gender as moderators of gender differences in parents’ emotion socialization behaviors. Design. Mothers and fathers from two samples responded to questionnaires assessing self-expressiveness in the family (N = 196) or reactions to children’s negative emotions (N = 299). Results. Differences between mothers and fathers varied as a function of ethnicity. Mothers and fathers showed similar levels of negative expressiveness in European American and African American families, whereas fathers were more negatively expressive than mothers in Lumbee families. Mothers reported more supportive reactions than fathers among European Americans and Lumbees, but African American mothers and fathers reported nearly equal levels of supportive reactions. Parent gender × ethnicity interactions were further moderated by child gender. Mothers were generally more supportive of girls’ negative emotions than fathers across all ethnicities. For boys, however, parent gender differences in supportive reactions to negative emotions varied by ethnicity. Mothers were more supportive than fathers among European American parents of boys, but mothers were less supportive than fathers among African American parents of boys. Conclusions. Results highlight the contextualized nature of emotion socialization, and the need to consider ethnicity and child gender as influences on mothers’ and fathers’ gender-specific emotion socialization.}, number={3}, journal={PARENTING-SCIENCE AND PRACTICE}, author={Brown, Geoffrey L. and Craig, Ashley B. and Halberstadt, Amy G.}, year={2015}, month={Jul}, pages={135–157} }

We hypothesized that children develop emotion recognition skill as a function of parents' own emotion‐related beliefs, behaviours, and skills. We examined parents' beliefs about the value of emotion and guidance of children's emotion, parents' emotion labelling and teaching behaviours, and parents' skill in recognizing children's emotions in relation to their school‐aged children's emotion recognition skills. Sixty‐nine parent–child dyads completed questionnaires, participated in dyadic laboratory tasks, and identified their own emotions and emotions felt by the other participant from videotaped segments. Regression analyses indicate that parents' beliefs, behaviours, and skills together account for 37% of the variance in child emotion recognition ability, even after controlling for parent and child expressive clarity. The findings suggest the importance of the family milieu in the development of children's emotion recognition skill in middle childhood and add to accumulating evidence suggesting important age‐related shifts in the relation between parental emotion socialization and child emotional development.

Thus, the goal of this study was to develop the multifaceted Parents' Beliefs About Children's Emotions (PBACE) questionnaire. Central to our work was inclusion of multiple ethnic groups throughout the questionnaire development process, from initial item creation through assessment of measurement invariance and validity. Participants included 1,080 African American, European American, and Lumbee American Indian parents of 4- to 10-year-old children who completed the initial item pool for the PBACE. Exploratory factor analyses were conducted with 720 of these parents to identify factor structure and reduce items. Confirmatory factor analysis was then conducted with a holdout sample of 360 parents to evaluate model fit and assess measurement invariance across ethnicity and across parent gender. Finally, validity of the PBACE scales was assessed via correlations with measures of parental emotional expressivity and reactions to children's emotions. The PBACE is composed of 33 items in 7 scales. All scales generally demonstrated measurement invariance across ethnic groups and parent gender, thereby allowing interpretations of differences across these ethnic groups and between mothers and fathers as true differences rather than by-products of measurement variance. Initial evidence of discriminant and construct validity for the scale interpretations was also obtained. Results suggest that the PBACE will be useful for researchers interested in emotion-related socialization processes in diverse ethnic groups and their impact on children's socioemotional outcomes and well-being.

 @article{eaton_halberstadt_2000, title={Gender, emotion and the family}, volume={24}, ISSN={["0361-6843"]}, DOI={10.1177/036168430002400402}, abstractNote={disorders. Rider’s psychology of women text offers rather extensive analyses of power and behatior, personality and gender, and the effects and process of ha\ing children, topics the Brannon text does not feature as prominently. Conversely, Brannon’s gender text offers greater discussion of emotion and gender, stereoQping of both sexes, and the effects of gender on friendships. Brannon’s text is written clearly, but its very comprehensive treatment of sometimes contradictory research findings and intricate theoretical debates might be challenging for some firstand second-year undergraduates. The writing is, at times, dry and less entertaining than Rider’s, although the boxes on “Gendered Voices” and “Diversity Highlights” help to supplement the extensive literature reviews by providing illuminating individual perspectives. Brannon’s use of graphs and photographs is less effective than Rider’s, but Brannon’s text does include annotated chapter sections on “Suggested Readings” that are just as useful as those included in the Rider text. Brannon’s text is comparable in substance and style to other gender texts already on the market (e.g., Lips, 2000) and should appeal to instructors who emphasize einpirical and objective research when teaching upper-level undergraduates. Neither of these texts is able to integrate issues of age, ethnicity, race, social class, disability, and sexual orientation in each chapter. This inability is attributable, in part, to the lack of research on diverse groups that has existed historically in psychology. Nonetheless, it is e\.ident that both authors are cognizant of the need to address issues of diversity and each attempts to do so. Rider begins her book by profiling women throughout the world and highlighting important differences in life exprctancy, literacy, and fertili? that occur as a function of location in the world. She also discusses the problems of ethnocentrism, ageism, and heterosexism in the first chapter and returns briefly to those themes in her chapter on research methods. Racial and cultural variations are briefly mentioned again (usually three or four paragraphs) in many of the other chapters in the book, but not in all. Brannon addresses issues of diversity by incorporating at least one “Diversity Highlight” into each chapter. These boxes offer vignettes, research study summaries, and cross-cultural comparisons that are helpful for understanding that the ex-erience and study of women is in large part affected by an array of variables that interact with gender. Relatively few discussions of diversity are found in the main body of this text, with the exception of sections on homosexuality and bisexuality in the chapter entitled “Sexuality.” Both of the texts rebiewed here are fine overviews of the current literature on gender similarity, difference, and development, and women’s experiences, but neither does a masterful job of incorporating issues of diversity. Brannon’s book is on a par with a number of other gender texts that have been on the market for the past decade, and Rider’s work fares very well in comparison to other texts on the psychology of women. Which text one chooses will depend predominantly on the type of course and student being taught.}, number={4}, journal={PSYCHOLOGY OF WOMEN QUARTERLY}, author={Eaton, KL and Halberstadt, AG}, year={2000}, month={Dec}, pages={379–380} }

Mothers’ reports suggest substantial differences (a) in anger causes across relationships, (b) depending on whether parents or children were experiencing or eliciting anger events, and (c) for the three independent components of the anger events. For example, for type of cause, mothers’ reports indicated more expectancy violations for parents’ than children’s anger, but more goal blockages for children’s than parents’ anger. Also, elicitormattered; mothers’ reports indicated more goal blockages elicited by parents than by children, but more expectancy violations elicited by children than by parents. These patterns are interpreted in terms of differential power and status within the family.}, number={4}, journal={SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT}, author={Carpenter, S and Halberstadt, AG}, year={2000}, pages={458–477} }
