"Introduction to the Special Section: Prosocial development in risky and vulnerable contexts"

6/15/2021

 
​Assistant Professor Laura Taylor (University College, Dublin, first author) and Professor Gustavo Carlo published an article introducing a special section on prosocial behaviors in the latest issue of the International Journal of Behavioral Development.

The title of the article is “Introduction to the Special Section: Prosocial development in risky and vulnerable contexts.”
 
Carlo also served as co-editor of this special issue titled “Prosocial Development in Risky and Vulnerable Contexts.”
 
Carlo’s primary research interest focuses on understanding positive social development and health in culturally diverse children and adolescents. Many of his projects focus on U.S. ethnic/racial groups, including Latino/a youth and families. He has published more than 200 books, chapters, and research papers. He currently serves as a member of the Society for Research in Child Development Governing Council, as associate editor of the International Journal of Behavioral Development, and as co-editor of the upcoming APA Handbook of Adolescent Development. Carlo serves as director of UCI’s Cultural Resilience and Learning Center.

​Abstract
 
The introduction highlights a developmental perspective on children’s and youth prosocial behavior in risky and vulnerable contexts. The six empirical papers published in this Special Section are considered within a multilevel, multidimensional framework and reflect a diversity of methodological approaches. The studies each provide foundational work that informs theory, builds our knowledge base, and has important intervention implications. We highlight the contributions of each study and present recommendations for future developmental research on prosocial behaviors.
