Ghadyani, Fariba; Tahririan, Mohammad Hassan; Afzali, Katayoon – Language Teaching Research Quarterly, 2022

Schabmann, Alfred; Gerger, Gernot; Schmidt, Barbara M.; Wögerer, Eva; Osipov, Igor; Leder, Helmut – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2016

However, there is inconsistent evidence for relations between children's baseline vagal tone and their helpful or prosocial responses to others (Hastings & Miller, 2014). Recent work in adults suggests a quadratic…
