There is a growing focus on youth positive development issues among researchers and practitioners around the world. In this special issue of Child Development, each of the international authors provides new perspectives and understanding about youth developmental assets in different cultural settings. The present commentary (a) examines some of the cross-cultural themes that emerge from the four articles by international authors in this issue with implications for positive youth development (PYD) and (b) how intervention science can benefit by incorporating a PYD approach. As evident, youth involved in contexts that provide positive resources from significant others not only were less likely to exhibit negative outcomes, but also were more likely to show evidence of positive development.

The aim of the present study was to explore the longitudinal links among mothers' and fathers' warm parenting, children's prosocial behavior, peer relationships, and their subjective wellbeing. Specifically, the research tested indirect relations between mothers' and fathers' warm parenting and children's subjective well-being via children's prosocial behavior and peer relationships. Methods: The participants were 1,661 parents and their children (T1: M age = 7) from the Panel Study on Korean Children (PSKC). Direct and indirect relations among the study variables were explored using path analysis. Results: Mothers' warm parenting was directly related to children's subsequent subjective well-being, while fathers' warm parenting was not directly associated with children's subsequent subjective wellbeing. Fathers' warm parenting was linked to children's subsequent prosocial behavior, which in turn predicted the number of close friends, social adjustment with peers, and frequency of peer conflict. In turn, children's diverse types of peer relationships predicted their subjective well-being. Children's prosocial behavior was also positively related to their subsequent subjective well-being. Conclusion: The present findings suggest children's prosocial behavior and peer relationships are intervening mechanisms that account for how fathers' warm parenting predicts their children's subsequent subjective well-being. This study also highlights the protective role of mothers' warm parenting in children's subjective well-being.

“…Yet, the explanatory power of these studies is limited because only when these variables are investigated jointly is it possible to test their additive effects and to determine how much variance each factor explains whereas the other is controlled for. Among the few studies that have examined longitudinally both child dispositional characteristics and environmental variables simultaneously, most investigated the relation of parenting and temperament to the development of prosocial behaviour (Eisenberg, Spinrad, Taylor, & Liew, 2017;Hastings, Rubin, & DeRose, 2005;Laible et al, 2017;Laible, Carlo, Davis, & Karahuta, 2016;Streit, Carlo, Ispa, & Palermo, 2017). Studies concerning empathy (Taylor, Eisenberg, Spinrad, Eggum, & Sulik, 2013) or sympathy (Robinson, Zahn-Waxler, & Emde, 1994;Taylor, Eisenberg, & Spinrad, 2015) are even more rare.…”

The development of interindividual differences in sympathy: The role of child personality and adults’ responsiveness to distress

2018

In a three‐wave longitudinal study of 85 children (43 girls) at 5, 6, and 7 years of age, the role played by child personality (inhibition, aggressiveness) and adults’ responsiveness to distress in children's sympathy was examined. At all three times, sympathy was measured via standardized observations as well as children's self‐reports. Child inhibition and aggressiveness were assessed with reports by teachers at T1 and T2. Parents’ and teachers’ responsiveness to distress were inferred from interviews with the children at T1 and T2. Longitudinal analyses via latent regression using structural equation models showed that earlier sympathy explained most of the variance in later sympathy. Additionally, higher inhibition at T1 predicted less sympathy at T2. Higher sympathy at T1 predicted more adult responsiveness at T2. Higher aggressiveness at T2 predicted less sympathy at T3. Within time, at T1, sympathy was positively related to adults’ responsiveness. At T2, inhibition and sympathy were negatively related. The discussion focuses on the question of how child personality as well as parental and non‐parental socialization experiences work in concert to explain interindividual differences in sympathy.
