• Maternal Emotion Regulation (2014) · doi

  This study examined the link between maternal emotion regulation (ER) and emotion parenting behaviors and child ER, particularly emphasizing the previously understudied potential associations between mothers’ ER and concurrent emotion parenting behaviors.

• Parental depressive symptoms and child psychopathology: Effects of parenting‐specific emotion regulation and emotion socialization (2024) · doi

  Implications: Findings imply that how parents regulate their emotions during parenting significantly affects their ability to engage in supportive ES practices, but replication in a longitudinal framework is warranted.

• Interparental and Parent–Teen Relationships during Adolescence as Predictors of Intra- and Interpersonal Emotion Regulation in Young Adulthood (2024) · doi

  Parents' contributions to their children's emotion regulation during adolescence has been a relatively understudied interpersonal context of development, even though parents' roles as sources of social and emotional learning persist from childhood into adolescence and the complexity of teens' lives grows during this time.

• Responses of Preschoolers in Two Frustrating Episodes: Emergence of Complex Strategies for Emotion Regulation (2000) · doi

  Although research on young children's abilities to organize emotional states has increased in recent years, little is known about the emergence of complex strategies for emotion regulation in preschoolers.

• Indirect Effects of Emotion Regulation on Peer Acceptance and Rejection: The Roles of Positive and Negative Social Behaviors (2016) · doi

• Unique contributions of emotion regulation and executive functions in predicting the quality of parent–child interaction behaviors. (2016) · doi

  Parenting is a cognitive, emotional, and behavioral endeavor, yet limited research investigates parents' executive functions and emotion regulation as predictors of how parents interact with their children.

• Maternal Emotion Socialization and the Development of Inhibitory Control in an Emotional Condition (2016) · doi

  Although several studies have implicated parental socialization in children's development of multiple executive functions, little is known about how parenting may predict inhibitory control when emotion is involved.
