Behavioral Inhibition and Stress Reactivity: The Moderating Role of Attachment Security
TL;DR: The role of the mother-toddler attachment relationship in moderating the relations between behavioral inhibition and changes in salivary cortisol levels in response to novel events was examined and mothers in these relationships appeared to interfere with toddlers' coping efforts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stress reactivity and attachment security
TL;DR: Later attachment security was related to greater maternal responsiveness and lower cortisol baselines, and neither cortisol nor behavioral reactivity to the inoculations predicted later attachment classifications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toddler and childhood temperament: expanded content, stronger genetic evidence, new evidence for the importance of environment.
TL;DR: Using samples of twins and singletons totaling 715 individuals, the authors document heritable influences on various temperamental dimensions during the toddler and preschooler age ranges, which have been somewhat understudied relative to infants and older adolescents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fear and Anger Regulation in Infancy: Effects on the Temporal Dynamics of Affective Expression
TL;DR: The results suggest caution in assuming that postulated regulatory behaviors actually have general distress-reducing effects and the likelihood that "distress" is too global a construct for research on emotion regulation.
