Professor co-edits The Oxford Handbook of Parenting and Moral Development

10/5/2020

 
Professor Gustavo Carlo (right) is co-editor, along with Deborah J. Liable (Lehigh University) and Laura M. Padilla Walker (Brigham Young University) of the 2020 Oxford Handbook of Parenting and Moral Development.
 
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 is director of UCI’s Cultural Resilience and Learning Center.
 
The Oxford Handbook of Parenting and Moral Development, which draws together the most important work in the field, is organized in three sections.
Picture
The first section provides an overview of traditional and contemporary perspectives on parenting and moral development, including perspectives related to parenting styles, domain theory, attachment theory, and evolutionary theory. Carlo, Liable, and Walker contributed the opening chapter describing a nuanced approach to parenting and moral development. This section also includes several chapters that explore the genetic and biological influences related to parenting and moral development.
 
The second section of the volume explores cultural and religious approaches to parenting and moral development and contributes examples of contemporary research with diverse populations such as Muslim cultures and US Latino/as.
 
The last section of the volume examines recent developments and approaches to parenting, including chapters on topics such as helicopter parenting, proactive parenting, parent-child conversations and disclosure, parental discipline, and other parenting practices designed to inhibit children's antisocial and aggressive behaviors. Carlo and doctoral candidate L. Diego Conejo contributed chapter 15 on traditional and culture-specific parenting of prosociality in the U.S. Latino/as.
