  • Profile

    Daniëlle van der Giessen is an assistant professor. Her main focus is on understanding the nature of parent-child interactions, its links to socio-emotional functioning, and the effects of parenting interventions and CBT on these interactions. Daniëlle teaches in several undergrate and graduate courses on parenting and interventions and has more than 15 years experience coding parent-child interactions. 

    Research interest and expertise

    • understanding real-time behavioral and emotional processes during parent-child interactions (e.g., parenting behavior, emotional variability, sensitivity, emotion regulation) for healthy functioning of toddlers, children, and adolescents
    • a certified coder for several coding systems such as the EAS, SPAFF, DPICS, and the dyadic synchrony coding system.
    • using dynamic systems methods (e.g., State Space Grids)
    • the effects of parenting interventions (e.g., Incredible Years, The Happiest Toddler) and CBT (denken+doen=durven) on parent-child interactions and children’s anxiety.
    • challenging parenting behavior and socio-emotional and motor development in children with and without hearing loss
