  • Title: Emotion-focused coping in young children: self and self-regulatory processes.
    Author: Kopp CB.
    Journal: New Dir Child Adolesc Dev; 2009; 2009(124):33-46. PubMed ID: 19536793.
    Abstract:
    This chapter explores paths toward emotion-focused coping among typically developing young children and their more or less average parents-portraying characteristic developmental patterns, demands, and stresses. Emotion-focused coping strategies are effortful and aim to decrease negative emotions in stress-inducing interpersonal contexts. The themes here highlight developmental changes of the early years and related parent and child hassles; likely cognitive, social, and linguistic antecedents and correlates of emotion-focused coping; and some self-regulatory processes that enable coping. The chapter concludes by noting that new directions in the study of young children's coping involve returning to well-crafted, short-term longitudinal research.
