Abstract

Callous-unemotional (CU) behaviors increase children’s risk for subsequent antisocial behavior. This risk process may begin in early childhood with reciprocal pathways between CU behaviors and harsh parenting. In a sample of 561 linked triads of biological mothers, adoptive parents, and adopted children, the present study examined bidirectional links between CU behaviors and harsh parenting across three time points from 18 to 54 months and investigated moderation by inherited risk for psychopathic traits. Child CU behaviors and harsh parenting were measured using adoptive mother and adoptive father reports, and biological mothers provided reports of their personality characteristics. Findings supported reciprocal associations between harsh parenting and CU behaviors during early childhood, especially during the transition from toddlerhood (27 months) to the preschool period (54 months). Moreover, multiple-group analyses showed that level of inherited risk moderated associations between CU behaviors and harsh parenting. Specifically, there were statistically reliable associations between CU behaviors at 27 months and adoptive mothers’ harsh parenting at 54 months, and between adoptive fathers’ harsh parenting at 27 months and CU behaviors at 54 months among children at higher inherited risk, but not among those at lower inherited risk. The findings illustrate the dynamic interplay between parenting, CU behaviors, and heritable risk.

Because harsh parenting data at 54 months were missing for Cohort II, we reran the identical model but restricted analyses to Cohort I (n = 361). The path from CU behaviors at 27 months to harsh parenting at 54 months was statistically significant (β = .16, p = .01). The path from harsh parenting at 27 months to CU behaviors at 54 months was similar in magnitude but marginally significant (β = .11, p < .07), likely due to the reduced power associated with the smaller sample size.

When we reran the identical model but restricted the sample to Cohort I (n = 361), the path from harsh parenting at 27 months to CU behaviors at 54 months continued to be statistically significant (β = .18, p < .01).
