Associations between mother-child relationship quality and adolescent adjustment : using a genetically controlled design to determine the direction and magnitude of effects
(Sage, 2016-05)This study used a genetically controlled design to examine the direction and the magnitude of effects in the over-time associations between perceived relationship quality with mothers and adolescent maladjustment (i.e., depressive symptoms and ... -

Gene–environmental architecture of adolescent substance use
(Cambridge University Press, 2018-02-19)Background: Using a longitudinal twin design and a latent growth curve/autoregressive approach, this study examined the genetic-environmental architecture of substance use across adolescence. Methods: Self-reports of substance use (i.e., alcohol, ... -
Group-Based Symptom Trajectories in Indicated Prevention of Adolescent Depression
