“…New conceptual models provided important and useful revisioning of family patterns by centering race and ethnicity in theorizing about family processes within contexts (Buehler & Few‐Demo, ). Some of these new perspectives used an integrated cultural neuropsychological perspective that also signaled new scholarship pathways (e.g., Doane et al, ). Others incorporated key aspects of historical and current phenomena that need intensive examination (e.g., McBride Murry et al, ; Rose, ).…”

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.

“…Another domain of research on culture and biology interplay represented in this Special Issue is cultural neurobiology, or the study of the transactions among cultural processes and stress-sensitive neurobiology across development, including the autonomic nervous system, the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis, and the immune system (Doane, Sladek, & Adam, 2018). Doane, Sladek, Breitenstein, and colleagues (2018) investigated whether familial influences were associated with indicators of typical physiological stress processes with a sample of 209 Latino adolescents. They examined familism values, perceptions of parent support, and daily family assistance behaviors in relation to hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis diurnal patterns, indexed by salivary cortisol five times a day for three days.…”

Culture plays a pivotal role in adaptive and maladaptive development. However, culture remains disconnected from theory, research, training, assessment, and interventions in developmental psychopathology, limiting our understanding of the genesis and epigenesis of mental health. Cultural development and psychopathology research can help overcome this limitation by focusing on the elucidation of cultural risk, protective, and promotive factors, at the individual and social levels, that initiate, derail, or maintain trajectories of normal and abnormal behavior. The goal of this Special Issue is to showcase research on the association between culture, development, and psychopathology that investigates equifinality and multifinality in cultural development, the interplay between culture and biology, cultural assessment and interventions, and cultural differences and similarities.

“…Participants consisted of N = 209 Hispanic/Latinx adolescents (84.7% Mexican, 8.6% South/Central American; 64.4% female) from over 90 high schools in the southwest US. Participants had varying immigrant generational status, parental education, and social class (see Doane et al, 2018 for a full description). Wave 1 occurred during (spring; 64.5%) or directly following (summer; 34.5%) participants’ senior year of high school (December–July; M date = April 27, M age = 18.10, SD age = 0.41).…”

“…The mean number of complete diary entries provided by each participant was 21.00 ( SD = 5.80). Note that an additional diary entry was completed approximately 30 min after waking (not a focus of these analyses; see Doane et al, 2018). The first sample occurred at bedtime on the first day ( Moment = 1) and the final sample occurred in the morning on the eighth day ( Moment = 26).…”

Negative affect reactivity to stress and internalizing symptoms over the transition to college for Latinx adolescents: Buffering role of family support

Abstract Affect reactivity to stress may play a role in the development of internalizing symptoms during the college transition, a critical developmental juncture for Latinx adolescents, the largest ethnic minority group on college campuses. This study examined whether affect reactivity during high school is associated with internalizing symptoms in college and explored two potential protective factors, perceived family and peer support. Participants were 209 Latinx adolescents (Mage = 18.10; 64.4% female) who completed standard surveys and four diary assessments per day over 7 days (N > 4,500 momentary observations). First, to measure affect reactivity, we assessed whether perceived stress was associated with negative affect at the momentary level during high school (senior year). Second, we tested whether affect reactivity predicted internalizing symptoms during the first year of college. Third, we tested whether perceived family or peer support buffered the negative consequences of affect reactivity. Results indicated statistically significant within- and between-person associations between stress and negative affect. Moreover, affect reactivity significantly predicted depressive, but not anxiety, symptoms. Buffering was found for family, but not peer, support. Findings extend previous research by detecting associations between momentary affect reactivity and internalizing symptoms during a sociocultural shift in Latinx adolescents’ lives and have implications for culturally appropriate programs to prevent depressive symptoms.
