In Peer Matters, Teachers Matter: Peer Group Influences on Students’ Engagement Depend on Teacher Involvement (2017, background): “…(e.g., Moore & Depue, 2016), where researchers have considered hypotheses that include protective or buffering effects, immunization, thresholds, cumulative risk, diathesis-stress, and other forms of differential vulnerability or susceptibility to the environment (e.g., Ellis et al., 2011).”
Do Overwhelmed Expatriates Intend to Leave? The Effects of Sensory Processing Sensitivity, Stress, and Social Capital on Expatriates' Turnover Intention (2018, background): “Belsky’s differential susceptibility theory (Belsky, 1997, 2005; Belsky et al., 2007; Belsky and Pluess, 2009, 2013; Ellis et al., 2011) suggests individual differences in their environmental sensitivity.”
Borderline Personality Disorder (2016, positive): “A wealth of research has shown that the principles of LHT apply to humans in the same way as to any other organism [24].”
Attachment in the Early Life Course: Meta‐Analytic Evidence for Its Role in Socioemotional Development (2017, background): “Researchers might also consider individual factors that make children differentially susceptible to context (30, 31).”
Differential Susceptibility to Environmental Influences (2013, background): “The notion of differential susceptibility, derived as it is from evolutionary theorizing, has gained great attention in recent years, including a special section in the journal Development and Psychopathology (see Ellis et al., 2011).”
The Adaptive Calibration Model of stress responsivity (2010, background): “…susceptibility underlies pervasive person-by-environment interactions, whereby individuals with given genotypes or phenotypes show higher sensitivity to environmentally induced effects on development (see Belsky, 1997, 2005; Belsky and Pluess, 2009; Boyce and Ellis, 2005; Ellis et al., 2011a).”
