DESCRIPTION: This application is a request for a new investigator RO1 to examine sibling-effects on antisocial behavior. Despite an emerging literature that has suggested that siblings may exert pronounced and unique effects on the development of antisocial behavior, empirical efforts to document sibling effects have lagged behind the identification of parental and peer influences. The proposed project is an attempt to fill this gap by focusing on the processes by which siblings may train, reinforce, and promote each other's initiation and escalation of antisocial behavior, especially during adolescence as the peak period for engagement in deviant behavior. The overall goal of this project is to address detailed questions about sibling effects on antisocial behavior by using two interrelated study samples especially well-suited to this purpose. These longitudinal data sets, the Iowa Youth and Families Project and the Iowa Single Parent Project, have assessed over 600 sibling pairs over multiple time points from early to late adolescence, including videotaped records of sibling interaction and independent reports of antisocial behavior at every assessment period. Through the application of well-developed coding systems designed to study microanalytic social processes to the collected videotapes of sibling interaction the project will pursue five specific aims: (1) to investigate coercive or negative reinforcement cycles in sibling interactions hypothesized to condition risk for antisocial or delinquent behavior (2) to investigate the influence of sibling approval or positive reinforcement of deviant actions or verbalizations that may function as conditional factors for the initiation or maintenance for antisocial behavior; (3) to clarify which social processes between siblings are salient for the development of antisocial behavior at different developmental periods (early to latter adolescence); (4) to test if the salient social processes between siblings differ systematically according to gender compositions and (5) to determine the degree to which parenting practices affect social processes in the sibling relationship that either increase or decrease risk for adolescent antisocial behavior as well as the extent to which sibling influence is independent of parenting behavior. Both regression and latent growth curve models will be applied to reveal conditional associations between sibling interaction and antisocial behavior over time and sequential statistics will be used to isolate hypothesized behavioral exchanges between siblings. Such detailed examinations of specific intersectional patterns between siblings may identify social processes that act as conditional factors that can increase or diminish the likelihood engagement in serious antisocial behavior during adolescence.

描述：此申请是对新调查员 RO1 的请求 检查兄弟姐妹对反社会行为的影响。尽管新兴文学 这表明兄弟姐妹可能会对孩子产生显着且独特的影响 反社会行为的发展，记录兄弟姐妹的经验努力 影响的确定落后于父母和同伴影响的识别。 拟议的项目试图通过关注来填补这一空白 兄弟姐妹可以互相训练、加强和促进彼此的过程 反社会行为的发起和升级，尤其是在青春期 是异常行为的高峰期。本次活动的总体目标 该项目旨在解决有关兄弟姐妹对反社会行为的影响的详细问题 通过使用两个特别适合于此的相关研究样本来研究行为 目的。这些纵向数据集、爱荷华州青年和家庭项目以及 爱荷华州单亲项目，已评估了 600 多对兄弟姐妹 从青春期早期到青春期晚期的多个时间点，包括录像 兄弟姐妹互动的记录和反社会行为的独立报告 在每个评估期。通过应用成熟的编码 旨在研究收集到的微观分析社会过程的系统 兄弟姐妹互动的录像该项目将追求五个具体目标： (1) 研究兄弟姐妹中的强制或负强化循环 假设相互作用可以调节反社会或犯罪的风险 行为（2）调查兄弟姐妹认可或积极的影响 强化异常行为或言语，可能起到以下作用： 引发或维持反社会行为的条件因素； (3) 阐明兄弟姐妹之间的哪些社会过程对于 不同发育时期（早期到早期）反社会行为的发展 青春期后期）； (4) 检验之间是否存在显着的社会过程 兄弟姐妹根据性别构成存在系统差异，并且 (5) 确定养育方式对社会进程的影响程度 兄弟姐妹关系会增加或减少青少年的风险 反社会行为以及兄弟姐妹影响的程度 独立于养育行为。回归曲线和潜在增长曲线 模型将用于揭示兄弟姐妹之间的条件关联 随着时间的推移和顺序统计，互动和反社会行为将被 用于隔离兄弟姐妹之间假设的行为交换。这样的 对兄弟姐妹之间特定交叉模式的详细检查可能会 识别作为条件因素的社会过程，可以增加或 减少参与严重反社会行为的可能性 青春期。
