在这项研究中，我们研究了一种新的方法来量化个体变异性使用呼吸性窦性心律失常（RSA）的动态测量。该方法将时间变化纳入RSA的测量中，并提供了比传统量化方法（如差异分数）所提供的信息更多的信息。在一个24个月大的实验室访问期间，对88名典型发育和高度恐惧的幼儿进行了动态和静态测量，测试了RSA变化与恐惧引发事件中情绪和情感行为的表现有关。RSA的动态测量提供了传统上使用的独特信息，在预测高恐惧幼儿在引发恐惧的情节中表现出害羞的静态变化分数。相比之下，RSA变化分数提供了与非高度恐惧儿童的胆量有关的信息。此外，一些关联包括RSA的非线性变化估计。讨论了RSA的个体差异及其与情绪和情绪调节关系的研究意义。(C) 2010 Wiley期刊公司心理科学进展，2010；
In this study we examined a new method for quantifying individual variability using dynamic measures of respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA). This method incorporated temporal variation into the measurement of RSA and provided information beyond that offered by more traditional quantifications such as difference scores. Dynamic and static measures of change in RSA were tested in relation to displays of emotion and affective behaviors during a fear-eliciting episode in a sample of 88 typically developing and high-fear toddlers during a laboratory visit at age 24 months. Dynamic measures of RSA contributed information that was unique from traditionally employed, static change scores in predicting high-fear toddlers displays of shyness during a fear-eliciting episode. In contrast, RSA change scores offered information related to boldness in nonhigh-fear children. In addition, several associations included estimates of nonlinear change in RSA. Implications for the study of individual differences in RSA and relations with emotion and emotion regulation are discussed. (C) 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Dev Psychobiol 52: 372-382, 2010.
