We investigated what a dyadic framework added to Eisenberg, Cumberland, & Spinrad's (1998) parental emotion socialization model based on the argument that the dynamic organization of emotion in the dyad is more than the sum of its parts and thus makes a unique contribution to emotion socialization. Preschoolers (N=235) completed challenging…
