Study Notes

Development of Emotion Regulation in Children and Adolescents

Social referencing is the use of parents' facial expressions and tone of voice by infants to navigate novel or ambiguous situations.
A visual cliff experiment demonstrated that children can distinguish between emotional expressions and rely on parents' reactions to guide their own reactions.
Children often look to their parents for guidance on how to react to situations.
Children begin to develop the ability to identify and label emotions around the age of 3, and this ability improves over early childhood.
By age 5, children understand that people can experience multiple emotions simultaneously, and they begin to grasp the concept of display rules for emotions.
Understanding false emotions emerges around age 5, which is crucial for successful social interactions.
Emotion regulation, the conscious and unconscious processes used to manage emotional experiences and expressions, develops gradually during childhood.
Co-regulation, where parents regulate infants' distress through soothing or distraction, is crucial for the development of emotion regulation.
Rudimentary emotion regulation skills, such as self-comforting behaviors and self-distraction, start to emerge in infants around 5 months old.
Over the first few years of life, children learn to rely more on self-distraction than self-comforting behaviors for emotion regulation.
The marshmallow test shows that children begin to engage in different techniques of emotion regulation, mainly distraction, from an early age.
By 6-8 years old, children start to rely on cognitive strategies and problem-solving as forms of emotion regulation, which can lead to higher well-being and social skills.
