Contemporaneous and Longitudinal Prediction of Children's Social Functioning from Regulation and Emotionality.

Eisenberg, Nancy; And Others

Child Development, v68 n4 p642-64 Aug 1997

Examined relationship of emotion regulation and emotionality to social functioning in 77 children followed from age 4 to age 10. Found that high-quality social functioning was predicted by high emotion regulation and low nonconstructive coping, negative emotionality, and emotional intensity. Measures of regulation and emotionality frequently contributed unique variance to prediction of social functioning. (Author/KB)
