This chapter focuses on two influential intrinsic constructs: temperament and self‐regulation. It describes both temperament and self‐regulation with attention to environmental influences and challenges, assessment, and intervention strategies to enhance self‐regulation in young children and to manage dysfunctional self‐regulatory skills. The chapter highlights Delaney's guidelines for assessment that are directly related to self‐regulation: emotional regulation, behavioral regulation/inhibitory control, and coping and stress responses. The increased developmental research in temperament and self‐regulation has heightened interest in both assessing these areas in young children and integrating treatment strategies that target specific aspects of both temperament and self‐regulation. Early assessment of temperament and continued assessment of age‐appropriate self‐regulatory abilities allow the professional to provide anticipatory guidance to parents and intervene when indicated. While the new evidence‐based programs focus exclusively on younger children, many professionals have experience working with older children and adolescents whose self‐regulatory problems are prominent and dysfunctional.
