Article Description Mesman, van Ijzendoorn, and Bakermans-Kranenburg are the authors of the article about parental sensitivity and its role in the establishment of family relationships and child development. The peculiar feature of this work is the author’s attention to ethnic minority families and the challenges they have to deal with regularly. Child development is a process that cannot be stopped or neglected. In this article, child development is discussed from the behavioral perspective in psychology. The investigations of Mary Ainsworth proved that material sensitivity played a crucial role in child development and promoted positive outcomes (Mesman, van Ijzendoorn, & Bakermans-Kranenburg, 2013). However, it is suggested not to use material sensitivity as the only concept for consideration in child development discussions, but try to take into consideration environmental changes, different behavioral models, and the needs of children, parents, and families. Purpose The purpose of the article under consideration is to examine the effects of parental sensitivity on children aged between 0 and 5 years in ethnic minority families. It is expected to define mean-level differences with majority parents and investigate the possible impact of socioeconomic factors on child outcomes (Mesman et al., 2012). The authors identify the connection between child behavior, family characteristics, and cultural factors. In addition, parental sensitivity is discussed in terms of family stress that may be caused by low incomes, single parenting, or teenage pregnancies. Article Type The authors of the article use a systematic literature review as the main research method. There are two hypotheses that have to be discussed in this study. On the one hand, the “no group difference” hypothesis is used to prove that despite the existing mean-level differences in human behaviors and cultures, culturally specific experiences cannot determine developmental processes (Mesman et al., 2012). On the other hand, there is the “group differences” hypothesis in terms of which the connection between family characteristics and child behavioral problems can be proved (Mesman et al., 2012). The chosen systematic literature review helps to evaluate several observational studies to clarify when parental sensitivity cannot be neglected and has to be supported by all family members and researchers. Findings With the help of the chosen research method, the authors are able to find little evidence for cultural explanations for child development. However, parental sensitivity is proved as a significant issue in positive child development that occurs in ethnic minority families. In this type of family, a low level of sensitivity is observed. It is explained by the presence of constant stressors and the inability to recognize child problems on time. Children’s well-being may be improved in case certain interventions to reduce family stress and enhance parental sensitivity are developed. Implications This article can be used in future research as a significant contribution to an understanding of parental relationships that are demonstrated in families with some socioeconomic problems. For example, there is an idea that the positive involvement of fathers, as well as the high quality of mother-father relationships, may reduce the
