Gabel, Lindsay N.; Daoust, Andrew R.; Olino, Thomas M.; Grahn, Jessica A.; Durbin, C. Emily; Hayden, Elizabeth P. – Merrill-Palmer Quarterly: Journal of Developmental Psychology, 2022
Individual differences in emotional reactivity emerge early in development and predict important child outcomes. Unfortunately, methods used to assess these often fail to tap dynamic changes in emotion, obscuring nuanced relationships between maladaptive emotional reactivity and early internalizing psychopathology. We therefore explored the…
