这项研究考察了儿童自主神经系统(ANS)对社会压力的反应是否缓和了父母情绪社会化对儿童社交和情绪适应的影响。61名儿童(9-13岁)完成同伴排斥任务，同时评估他们的呼吸性窦性心律失常反应性(RSA-R)和皮肤电导水平反应性(SCL-R)。父母对孩子负面情绪的支持性和非支持性反应的报告可以作为情绪社会化的衡量标准。儿童社交和情绪适应的测量包括：教师评定的同伴拒绝、攻击性和亲社会行为，以及父母评定的攻击性/失调行为和情绪调节技能。儿童ANS反应的测量对父母情绪社会化对儿童适应的影响有一定的调节作用。支持性反应对RSA增强的儿童更具保护性，而非支持性反应对SCL-R低的儿童更有害。因此，儿童在社会压力中的ANS反应可能代表了一种生物脆弱性，影响了对父母情绪社会化的敏感性。
This study examined whether measures of children's autonomic nervous system (ANS) reactivity to social stress moderated the effect of parent emotion socialization on children's social and emotional adjustment. Sixty-one children (9-13 years) completed a peer rejection task while their respiratory sinus arrhythmia reactivity (RSA-R) and skin conductance level reactivity (SCL-R) were assessed. Parents' report of supportive and non-supportive reactions to their child's negative emotions served as measures of emotion socialization. Measures of children's social and emotional adjustment included: teacher-rated peer rejection, aggression, and prosocial behavior and parent-rated aggressive/dysregulated behavior and emotion regulation skills. Measures of children's ANS reactivity moderated the effect of parent emotion socialization on children's adjustment. Supportive responses were more protective for children evidencing RSA augmentation whereas non-supportive responses were more detrimental for children evidencing low SCL-R. Thus children's ANS reactivity during social stress may represent a biological vulnerability that influences sensitivity to parent emotion socialization.
