Pearson correlations and t tests were conducted to explore variation in brain volumes related to children's sex, age, pubertal status, history of psychiatric disorders (yes / no), and children's history of psychotropic medication use (yes / no).

For analyses of white matter volume, children's age and pubertal status were also included as covariates.

We conducted a sensitivity analysis to determine whether the observed group differences were explained by differences in pubertal development, assessed with a self - report questionnaire at the same age as physiological reactivity was assessed.

However, the lack of a moderating effect of pubertal status on age - and sex - adjusted BMI z scores and any metabolic parameter indicates that the same caution is required when treating younger children and adolescents.

Using data from a sample of 478 males from a longitudinal birth cohort, we describe the calculations of three independent height - based markers of pubertal timing: Age at Peak Height Velocity (APHV), Height Difference in Standard Deviations (HDSDS), and Percent Achieved of Adult Stature (PAAS).

we describe the calculations of three independent height - based markers of pubertal timing: Age at Peak Height Velocity (APHV), Height Difference in Standard Deviations (HDSDS), and Percent Achieved of Adult Stature (PAAS).

Additional information will be collected from health and pubertal maturation examinations at ages 13.5, 14.5, 15.5, and 16.5; monitored physical activity at age 15; analyses of middle school and high school transcripts; and surveys of middle school and high school personnel.

We further hypothesized that youth more advanced in pubertal development would show increased neural response to peer rejection and acceptance (above and beyond the effects of age) in regions involved in social and affective processing.

Pubertal timing was linked to depressive symptoms in both age groups, and predicted an increase in depressive symptoms among the 7th graders.

The objective of this study was to test a comprehensive model of biologic (pubertal status), family (communication and conflict), and psychological influences (behavioral autonomy) on diabetes management and glycemic control in a sample of youth (N = 226) with type 1 diabetes recruited during late childhood / early adolescence (ages 9 — 11 years).

A whole - brain regression using AFNI's 3dRegana was conducted to identify areas showing a main effect of pubertal status on response to rejection and / or acceptance controlling for the effects of chronological age.

We examined whether sexual harassment, which has previously been linked to both pubertal timing and depressive symptoms, mediates this link, using a two - wave longitudinal study including 454 girls in 7th (M age = 13.42, SD =.53) and 8th grade (M age = 14.42, SD =.55).

Future research should therefore focus on a more homogenous sample with regard to age and pubertal development, or it should perform subsequent sampling in girls during their adolescence.

Further, it was examined whether pubertal status would be a more sensitive moderator in these models compared to age.

When examining models of depression from a developmental perspective, age may be preferred over pubertal status, as age is a less complex variable.

Additional analyses indicated that pubertal timing moderated the association between synchrony and depressive symptoms at age 20, such that girls who exhibited asynchronous development had the highest levels of depressive symptoms when they matured later than peers.

The two - way interaction age (or pubertal status) by gender (included in all models under test) was not significant; whereas it would be expected that girls report more depressive symptoms as level of maturation (age / pubertal status) increases compared to boys.

The analyses with pubertal status instead of age yielded different results with regard to the main models.

Results showed that although the four - way interaction between NCS, stressors, gender, and age was significant while the four - way interaction with pubertal status was marginally significant, the interpretation of these interactions was largely similar, i.e., NCS and depressive symptoms were significantly related only in the presence of many stressors in middle to late adolescent boys (or in boys reporting a high pubertal status).

The purpose of this report is to provide evidence of an association between within - person variability in diurnal testosterone over 1 year, lifetime exposure to violence, and the manifestation of antisocial behavior in 135 pubertal - aged adolescents across 1 year.

Moderation by pubertal status instead of age yielded slightly different results, that is, in the model with stress - reactive rumination, the relationship between negative cognitive style and depressive symptoms was stronger in adolescents who perceived their pubertal status as high, whereas age did not moderate this relationship.

Perceived pubertal status, reflecting the subjective experience of morphological changes related to puberty (Angold and Costello 2006), may be a more sensitive moderator of NCS than age.

However, contrary to age, how pubertal status is perceived and reported may also be influenced by depressive symptoms.

The role of autonomy and pubertal status in understanding age differences in diabetes responsibility across adolescence

Although there is no one established formula for determining a child's insulin requirement, insulin requirements are usually based on body weight, age, and pubertal status.

These findings are consistent with those of Pieters et al. (2015) who found that sleep problems prospectively predicted increased substance use, internalizing symptoms, and externalizing problems 1 year later in a sample of 555 adolescents (ages 11 — 16 years), even after controlling for baseline levels of adjustment, age, sex, and pubertal development.

The results for pubertal status and age are strikingly similar, indicating that after controlling for the effect of all the other variables in the regression model, the impact of life events on depression is significantly greater in the pubertal girls (sex × pubertal status [age] × life events interaction).

Because of the marked collinearity between age and pubertal status, we were unable to estimate the effects of these 2 variables simultaneously.

Under 2 separate regression models (1 for pubertal status and 1 for age), each variable's partial sums of squares and associated probability were used to examine these effects in the 2 sexes together (Table 1).

To address these issues in the present study, ADHD symptoms, IQ, age, pubertal stage and substance use will be included as covariates in order to control for their effects.

Due to the detailed characterization of our sample, we were able to control for various confounding variables such as comorbid ADHD symptoms, age, pubertal stage, IQ and substance use.

Age - independent effects of pubertal status on behavioral constraint in healthy adolescents.

The effects of age, IQ, ADHD symptoms, pubertal stage and substance abuse were removed by fitting a linear model (with no interactions) and the residuals of the model were plotted against callous - unemotional traits

Thus, we controlled for three level 1 variables (age, pubertal status, and treatment delivery method), two level 2 variables (baseline social status and baseline BMI), and the interaction between age and BMI in cross-sectional multilevel models.

Other potential confounding factors include: substance use and age / pubertal stage of the sample.
