Mother-Child Neurophysiological Synchrony Moderates the Relation Between Maternal Affect Experiences and Child Emotion Dysregulation.

ABSTRACT: The parent-child emotion regulation dynamics model posits that child emotion regulation develops in the context of the parent-child relationship across multiple levels of functioning. Such a conceptualization dovetails newer conceptualizations of psychopathology, which argue that to most effectively understand and treat psychological problems, evaluation of individual and dyadic indicators across behavioral, physiological, and neural indicators is crucial. The present study adopted this multimethod, multilevel approach to examine the interacting role of maternal affect experiences with dyadic neurophysiological processes in relation to child emotion dysregulation - a transdiagnostic risk factor for both child internalizing and externalizing psychopathology.
