Sentences with phrase «biological processes involved»

Recent developmental neuroscience work suggests that because of its dependence on the maturation of prefrontal - limbic connections, the development of self - regulatory processes is relatively protracted, 24 from the development of basic and automatic regulation of physiology in infancy and toddlerhood to the more self - conscious and intentional regulation of cognition emerging in middle childhood.25 From a developmental perspective, then, opportunities for success and failure of self - regulation are numerous over the course of childhood, particularly given the potential of environmental factors such as parenting to facilitate or disrupt development in these domains.26 The next generation of temperament research will focus a great deal on the complex biological processes involved in these developmental pathways and the way these processes may be modified by the environment.
