Child Callous-Unemotional Traits

Unnecessary human behavior is expensive and damaging to families, communities and society. With roots in early childhood, explicit behavior puts children at risk of adverse physical and mental health effects throughout development. Callous-unemotional (CU) traits identify a subgroup of adolescents with complex and stable autonomic behaviors. While many publications have examined the features of CU in childhood and adolescence, researchers are just beginning to elucidate the origins of the development of CU symptoms. In this article, we review research examining the measurement and relation of CU behaviors in early childhood, as well as evidence that these early behaviors predict recent CU symptoms. We then describe the research showing the role that parents play in the development of CU behaviors in childhood. Finally, we outline the interpretive interests and cognitive aspects of CU learning behavior and consider the use of the term CU attributes in young children.
