作者研究了母亲支持性养育与努力控制和内化问题的关系（即，分离困扰，抑制新奇），外化问题，和社会能力时，幼儿18个月大（n = 256）和一年后（n = 230）。母亲完成应付幼儿负面情绪量表，并观察其敏感性和温暖。幼儿的努力控制采用延迟任务和成人报告（早期儿童行为问卷）。幼儿的社会功能进行了评估与婴儿/幼儿社会和情绪评估。在每个年龄段内，儿童的监管显着介导的支持性养育和低水平的外化问题和分离的困扰，和高的社会能力之间的关系。当使用更强的中介测试时，控制随着时间的推移的稳定性，作者只发现了部分中介证据。研究结果表明，这些关系可能在很小的时候就建立起来了。
The authors examined the relations of maternal supportive parenting to effortful control and internalizing problems (i.e., separation distress, inhibition to novelty), externalizing problems, and social competence when toddlers were 18 months old (n = 256) and a year later (n = 230). Mothers completed the Coping With Toddlers' Negative Emotions Scale, and their sensitivity and warmth were observed. Toddlers' effortful control was measured with a delay task and adults' reports (Early Childhood Behavior Questionnaire). Toddlers' social functioning was assessed with the Infant/Toddler Social and Emotional Assessment. Within each age, children's regulation significantly mediated the relation between supportive parenting and low levels of externalizing problems and separation distress, and high social competence. When using stronger tests of mediation, controlling for stability over time, the authors found only partial evidence for mediation. The findings suggest these relations may be set at an early age.
