Über den Autor

Natasha J. Cabrera is Associate Professor in Human Development at the University of Maryland. Dr. Cabrera arrived at the University of Maryland with several years of experience as an SRCD Executive Fellow and Expert in Child Development with the Demographic and Behavioral Sciences Branch (DBSB) of the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD). Dr. Cabrera's research, funded by National Institute of Child Development and the Ford Foundation, focuses on: father involvement and children's development; children's developmental trajectories in low income and minority families; ethnic and cultural differences in fathering and mothering behaviors; family processes in a social and cultural context and children's social development; and the mechanisms that link early experience to children's school readiness and children's social development. She has published in peer-reviewed journals on policy, methodology, theory and the implications of father involvement on child development and she co-edited other volumes including Latina/o Child Psychology and Mental Health (2011) and From Welfare to Child Care (2006).Catherine S. Tamis-LeMonda is Professor of Developmental Psychology at New York University's Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development and Director of the Center for Research on Culture, Development and Education at NYU, where she engages in research on the language, cognitive, social, and emotional development of infants and children from culturally diverse backgrounds across the first years of life. Her focus on early developmental processes highlights the social and cultural contexts of early development, especially the ways in which mothers' and fathers' beliefs and practices shape children's developmental trajectories in different populations within the U.S. and internationally. Tamis-LeMonda's research has been funded by the National Science Foundation, National Institute of Child Development, National Institute of Mental Health, Administration for Children, Youth and Families, the Ford Foundation, and the Robinhood Foundation. She has approximately 100 publications in peer-reviewed journals and books, and has co-edited other volumes including Child Psychology: A Handbook of Contemporary Issues, 2nd Edition (2006) and The Development of Social Cognition and Communication (2005).
