Sentences with phrase «parental reactivity»

Results provide some preliminary support for two of the six proposed pathways of change by mindful parenting in a mental health care context: reducing parental stress and the assumed effect on parental reactivity and improving marital functioning and co-parenting.

The design and small power of this pilot study prohibits further analysis of mediation of change mechanisms, but one direction of research would be to investigate whether reduction of parental stress is the mechanism through which parental reactivity towards the child is reduced.

There is preliminary evidence that mindful parenting programs reduce parental stress and resulting parental reactivity (process 1), reduce aspects of child mental disorder (process 2), and improve marital functioning and co-parenting (process 6).

Roughly 1 h of each session focused on (1) understanding the role of parental reactivity («the low road», Siegel and Hartzell 2004) and its relatedness to stress and fatigue, own upbringing patterns, personal or relational difficulties (e.g., lack of perceived partner support), child mental health problems (e.g., behavior problems), and historically grown parent — child interaction patterns, (2) taking care of yourself as a parent, (3) non-judgmental attention for the child, (4) acceptance of the child and its difficulties, and (5) rupture and repair in the context of parenting.

Not exact matches

Babies who had spent more weeks «rooming in» with their parents experienced less cortisol reactivity, even after controlling for other factors, like parental sensitivity and attachment security (Beijers et al 2013).

In support of this model, multiple studies have shown the association between infant negative reactivity and later psychosocial outcomes such as problem behaviour and self - regulation to be moderated by parental behaviour, so that highly reactive children fare better than others when they experience optimal parenting but worse than others when they experience negative parenting.41 - 46 Further support is found in studies indicating that interventions targeting parental attitudes and / or behaviours are particularly effective for children with a history of negative reactive temperament.47, 49

Positive emotional reactivity and self - regulation are important parental factors in developing healthy children's temperament.

The psychosocial outcome receiving the most attention from researchers is problem behaviour, with most studies finding perceived negative reactivity in infancy to predict problem behaviour in childhood33, 34 and adolescent.35 Specifically, infants prone to high levels of fear, frustration, and sadness, as well as difficulty recovering from such distress, were found to be at increased risk for internalizing and externalizing problem behaviours according to parental and / or teacher report.

Finally, because of the persistence of negative reactivity for some infants more adverse outcomes are likely, particularly if the parental environment is non-supportive.

In humans, parental social support has been shown to be inversely associated with asthma prevalence among children.55 Furthermore, maternal sensitivity has been shown to modify the effects of prenatal stress experiences on infant stress reactivity.56

For example, child positive emotional reactivity, fearfulness, and self - regulation elicit warmth from parents, whereas child negative emotional reactivity results in more negative parental control.

With contradictions possibly related to child age, some studies suggest that child negative emotionality elicits more parental warmth, 10 whereas other studies suggest it has mixed associations with parental warmth.11 However, there is more consistent evidence that high levels of parental sensitivity / responsivity lead to less child negative reactivity.8, 12 There is also some evidence that child negative emotionality predicts more negative parental control, 7 and a little evidence that negative parental control predicts more negative emotionality.13 In terms of more specific aspects of negative emotionality, child fearfulness predicts more parental warmth and more positive control.14 Similarly, low levels of parental warmth predict increases in fearfulness.12

Based on studies conducted so far, findings suggest that child positive emotional reactivity, fearfulness, and self - regulation elicit warmth from parents, whereas child negative emotional reactivity results in more negative parental control.

Temperament — Parenting: There is some, but not much, evidence that child positive emotional reactivity may elicit higher levels of parental warmth.6, 7 There is also a little evidence of the opposite direction of effects, suggesting that parental warmth gives rise to more child positive emotionality.8, 9 We do not yet have enough evidence to know whether child positivity and parental control influence one another.

Studies demonstrating this greater susceptibility of neurobiologically responsive children to both positive and negative aspects of their environments have implicated a wide variety of stressors and adversities, including paternal depression (67), marital conflict (68, 69), parental psychopathology (70), and overall family distress (71); of positive environmental features, including parental warmth (72) and supportive interventions (73); and of defining biological parameters, including physiological reactivity (e.g., 74, 75), differences in brain circuitry (76), and gene polymorphisms (77, 78).

We also examined the interplay between brain function, dispositional empathy, and cortisol reactivity to negative child feedback among mothers participating in a parental decision making task (Part 2).

Babies who had spent more weeks «rooming in» with their parents experienced less cortisol reactivity, even after controlling for other factors, like parental sensitivity and attachment security (Beijers et al 2013).

The anticipated outcome of these exercises is decreased parental stress and negative reactivity, which may lead to an increased aptitude for selecting more optimal parenting practices.

Using an intent - to - treat design, COPEing with Toddler Behaviour yielded significant effects on child behavior problems, positive parent — child interaction, and parental over reactivity and depression, but not observed negative child behavior or parental laxness.

Whereas fearless temperament can impair conscience development through insufficient engagement with important socialization cues (i.e., reduced face preference during early development; see Bedford et al., 2015), high emotional reactivity / dysregulation might make children overwhelmed in negatively charged situations, thus more prone to miss such cues in those particular contexts where they tend to be elicited (e.g., parental anger, peer distress; see Hoffman, 1982; Young et al., 1999; Frick and Morris, 2004).

Selective Impact of Early Parental Responsivity on Adolescent Stress Reactivity.

Findings suggest that children's attributions may be a mechanism through which parental conditional negative regard is related to children's depressive symptoms and emotion reactivity during a performance challenge.
