Introduction to the Joint Effort Toddler Temperament Consortium (JETTC)
Toddlers Parents and Culture, 2018Co-Authors: Gartstein, Samuel P. Putnam, Helena R. Slobodskaya, C. De WeerthAbstract:The conceptual basis for the Joint Effort Toddler Temperament Consortium (JETTC) is outlined, with culture characterized as a force influencing how individual differences in social-emotional functioning develop. Rothbart's psychobiological model, defining temperament as constitutionally based reactivity and regulation, as well as concepts integral to the Developmental Niche, including the child's routine and parental psychology (i.e., socialization goals for offspring and ethnotheories concerning appropriate parenting) are introduced. Our model of culturally driven influences on child behavioral outcomes guiding the book, with parent psychology and children’s daily context as mediators of cultural effects, including those linked to Hoftede et al. cultural orientation dimensions, is described.

the ecocultural context and child behavior problems a qualitative analysis in rural nepal
Social Science & Medicine, 2016Co-Authors: Matthew D Burkey, Lajina Ghimire, Ramesh P Adhikari, Lawrence S Wissow, Mark J D Jordans, Brandon A KohrtAbstract:Commonly used paradigms for studying child psychopathology emphasize individual-level factors and often neglect the role of context in shaping risk and protective factors among children, families, and communities. To address this gap, we evaluated influences of ecocultural contextual factors on definitions, development of, and responses to child behavior problems and examined how contextual knowledge can inform culturally responsive interventions. We drew on Super and Harkness' "Developmental Niche" framework to evaluate the influences of physical and social settings, childcare customs and practices, and parental ethnotheories on the definitions, development of, and responses to child behavior problems in a community in rural Nepal. Data were collected between February and October 2014 through in-depth interviews with a purposive sampling strategy targeting parents (N = 10), teachers (N = 6), and community leaders (N = 8) familiar with child-rearing. Results were supplemented by focus group discussions with children (N = 9) and teachers (N = 8), pile-sort interviews with mothers (N = 8) of school-aged children, and direct observations in homes, schools, and community spaces. Behavior problems were largely defined in light of parents' socialization goals and role expectations for children. Certain physical settings and times were seen to carry greater risk for problematic behavior when children were unsupervised. Parents and other adults attempted to mitigate behavior problems by supervising them and their social interactions, providing for their physical needs, educating them, and through a shared verbal reminding strategy (samjhaune). The findings of our study illustrate the transactional nature of behavior problem development that involves context-specific goals, roles, and concerns that are likely to affect adults' interpretations and responses to children's behavior. Ultimately, employing a Developmental Niche framework will elucidate setting-specific risk and protective factors for culturally compelling intervention strategies.

blastocyst complementation generates exogenic pancreas in vivo in apancreatic cloned pigs
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2013Co-Authors: Masahito Watanabe, Kazuaki Nakano, Hitomi Matsunari, Kazuhiro Umeyama, Hiroshi Nagashima, Masaki NagayaAbstract:In the field of regenerative medicine, one of the ultimate goals is to generate functioning organs from pluripotent cells, such as ES cells or induced pluripotent stem cells (PSCs). We have recently generated functional pancreas and kidney from PSCs in pancreatogenesis- or nephrogenesis-disabled mice, providing proof of principle for organogenesis from PSCs in an embryo unable to form a specific organ. Key when applying the principles of in vivo generation to human organs is compensation for an empty Developmental Niche in large nonrodent mammals. Here, we show that the blastocyst complementation system can be applied in the pig using somatic cell cloning technology. Transgenic approaches permitted generation of porcine somatic cell cloned embryos with an apancreatic phenotype. Complementation of these embryos with allogenic blastomeres then created functioning pancreata in the vacant Niches. These results clearly indicate that a missing organ can be generated from exogenous cells when functionally normal pluripotent cells chimerize a cloned dysorganogenetic embryo. The feasibility of blastocyst complementation using cloned porcine embryos allows experimentation toward the in vivo generation of functional organs from xenogenic PSCs in large animals.

Integrating the Developmental Niche: Relations among Socialization Goals, Parental Ethnotheories, Daily Activities, and Parental Responses to Temperament
Routledge, 2019Co-Authors: Majdandžić M., Kirchhoff M.c., Räikkönen K., Benga O., Ahmetoglu E., Putnam S.p.Abstract:The aim of this chapter is to integrate the Developmental Niche by exploring how parental socialization goals and ethnotheories are related to the toddler’s daily routine and maternal responses to child temperament displays. Country-level analyses revealed that children in countries high in relational socialization goals watched television longer and played less primarily for entertainment. Children in countries high in autonomous socialization goals spent more time on computers, slept longer at night, and their mothers used less shouting/swearing as a discipline technique. Mothers’ socialization goals/ethnotheories were unrelated to their responses to child temperament displays. Hofstede et al. cultural dimensions emerged as important contributors to the Developmental Niche

generation of rat pancreas in mouse by interspecific blastocyst injection of pluripotent stem cells
Cell, 2010Co-Authors: Toshihiro Kobayashi, Tomoyuki Yamaguchi, Sanae Hamanaka, Megumi Katoitoh, Yuji Yamazaki, Makoto Ibata, Hideyuki Sato, Younsu Lee, Joichi Usui, A S KniselyAbstract:The complexity of organogenesis hinders in vitro generation of organs derived from a patient's pluripotent stem cells (PSCs), an ultimate goal of regenerative medicine. Mouse wild-type PSCs injected into Pdx1(-/-) (pancreatogenesis-disabled) mouse blastocysts Developmentally compensated vacancy of the pancreatic "Developmental Niche," generating almost entirely PSC-derived pancreas. To examine the potential for xenogenic approaches in blastocyst complementation, we injected mouse or rat PSCs into rat or mouse blastocysts, respectively, generating interspecific chimeras and thus confirming that PSCs can contribute to xenogenic development between mouse and rat. The development of these mouse/rat chimeras was primarily influenced by host blastocyst and/or foster mother, evident by body size and species-specific organogenesis. We further injected rat wild-type PSCs into Pdx1(-/-) mouse blastocysts, generating normally functioning rat pancreas in Pdx1(-/-) mice. These data constitute proof of principle for interspecific blastocyst complementation and for generation in vivo of organs derived from donor PSCs using a xenogenic environment.
