In the book Psychosocial Development in Adolescence, E. Saskia Kunnen discusses de Ruiter's paper "What We Can Gain from a Dynamic Systems Approach to Psychosocial Development in Adolescence," explaining that

"de Ruiter looked at the parent-child system, but [focused] on how self-esteem can be conceptualized within this context. She presented a theoretical model entitled the socially embedded self-esteem model, which stresses the need to conceptualize moment-to-moment processes of self-esteem as part of the parent-child system. de Ruiter adopted principles from dynamic systems theory to descibre how the adolescent's self-esteem processes and the parent's behavior can become interlinked during intreractions between parents and their adolescent children."
