• Parent—Child Relationships During Adolescence (2009, background): “The learning - from - experience model argues that parents hone their skills with firstborn children and are thus better able to cope constructively with developmental changes in later born children (Whiteman et al., 2003 ).”
• Sibling Relationships and Influences in Childhood and Adolescence (2012, unknown): “Several lines of work suggest that siblings have implications for one another’s family experiences, but again, the underlying processes, such as whether parents learn from experience (Whiteman et al., 2003) or whether siblings dilute family resources (Downey, 2001), require direct assessment.”
