本研究的目的是考察不同类型的负性情绪及其调控与55~97个月龄儿童内化和外化问题行为的关系。家长和教师提供了关于儿童(N=214)适应、性格调控和情绪的信息，并在几个行为任务中观察了儿童的调节。内化有两种定义：社交退缩(避免项目与情绪性的测量重叠)或更广泛地定义为焦虑、抑郁和心身抱怨。总体而言，与内向问题儿童和非精神障碍儿童相比，有外在问题的儿童更容易愤怒、冲动和缺乏监管。有内在化症状的儿童更容易出现悲伤、低注意调节和低冲动。当使用整个内在化量表时，内在化问题与情绪性之间的关系更频繁。研究结果表明，情绪和调节以系统的方式与适应有关，努力控制和较少自愿的控制模式之间存在着重要的区别。
The purpose of this study was to examine the relation of different types of negative emotion and regulation and control to 55- to 97-month-olds' internalizing and externalizing problem behaviors. Parents and teachers provided information on children's (N = 214) adjustment, dispositional regulation and control, and emotion, and children's regulation was observed during several behavioral tasks. Internalizing was defined in two ways: as social withdrawal (to avoid overlap of items with measures of emotionality) or, more broadly, as anxiety, depression, and psychosomatic complaints. In general, children with externalizing problems, compared with children with internalizing problems and nondisordered children, were more prone to anger, impulsivity, and low regulation. Children with internalizing symptoms were prone to sadness, low attentional regulation, and low impulsivity Relations between internalizing problems and emotionality were more frequent when the entire internalizing scale was used. Findings suggest that emotion and regulation are associated with adjustment in systematic ways and that there is an important difference between effortful control and less voluntary modes of control.
