Parenting moderates the etiology of callous‐unemotional traits in middle childhood

Parenting moderates the etiology of callous‐unemotional traits in middle childhood IntroductionAntisocial behavior, including aggression and rule breaking, is a major public health concern due to its high prevalence, the emotional and financial cost to victims, and broad cost to society (Foster & Jones, 2005; Nock, Kazdin, Hiripi, & Kessler, 2006; Odgers et al., 2007). At severe levels, youth antisocial behavior is diagnosed as conduct disorder and may co‐occur with elevated levels of callous‐unemotional (CU) traits (‘with limited prosocial emotions’ specifier in DSM‐5 and ICD‐11; American Psychiatric Association, 2013; World Health Organization, 2020). CU traits are defined by low empathy, remorselessness, and shallow affect, and are related to more chronic and escalating antisocial behavior. CU traits identify youth with a potentially different etiology to their antisocial behavior and thus different treatment needs (Frick, Ray, Thornton, & Kahn, 2014).Heritability estimates for CU traits range widely from 25% to 80% (for reviews, see Moore, Blair, Hettema, & Roberson‐Nay, 2019; Viding & McCrory, 2012).

Abstract

IntroductionAntisocial behavior, including aggression and rule breaking, is a major public health concern due to its high prevalence, the emotional and financial cost to victims, and broad cost to society (Foster & Jones, 2005; Nock, Kazdin, Hiripi, & Kessler, 2006; Odgers et al., 2007). At severe levels, youth antisocial behavior is diagnosed as conduct disorder and may co‐occur with elevated levels of callous‐unemotional (CU) traits (‘with limited prosocial emotions’ specifier in DSM‐5 and ICD‐11; American Psychiatric Association, 2013; World Health Organization, 2020). CU traits are defined by low empathy, remorselessness, and shallow affect, and are related to more chronic and escalating antisocial behavior. CU traits identify youth with a potentially different etiology to their antisocial behavior and thus different treatment needs (Frick, Ray, Thornton, & Kahn, 2014).Heritability estimates for CU traits range widely from 25% to 80% (for reviews, see Moore, Blair, Hettema, & Roberson‐Nay, 2019; Viding & McCrory, 2012). Much of the work in this area has focused on adolescence or early childhood (for reviews, see Moore et al., 2019; though see Twin Early Development Study work, e.g. Takahashi, Pease, Pingault, & Viding, 2021; Viding, Blair, Moffitt, & Plomin, 2005; Viding, Frick, & Plomin, 2007) and/or has not used the
