DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The current application was developed in response to FOA (PA-08-212: "Methodology and Measurement in the Behavioral and Social Sciences") and is designed to further advance measurement and analytic methods for capturing multiple levels of individual adaptation in the family through the collaborative expertise of an interdisciplinary network of scientists from disciplines of Developmental Psychopathology, Cardiology, Communications, Electrical Engineering, and Computer Science. Furthermore, as an illustration of the potential utility of these methodological and quantitative advances, we test the viability of our multi-level quantification of psychophysiological reactivity as a potential mechanism that informs pathways between adolescent exposure to family conflict and their psychological adjustment within the broader developmental psychopathology framework. The condensed specific aims of the research application are: (1) develop more feasible and economical wireless systems for validly capturing physiological and behavioral processes underlying emotional reactivity during family interaction tasks, (2) test the psychometric properties of the wireless, ambulatory physiological and paralinguistic measures in relation to the standard assessments of these domains currently used in the literature, (3) investigate the utility for new latent variable growth modeling approaches for modeling functioning in multi-level systems, and (4) guided by predictions from a developmental process model, examine whether multi-system assessments of psychophysiological constructs are developmentally meaningful by examining predictors and sequelae of individual differences in individual components of reactivity in developmental process models. To achieve these aims, the research team will utilize observational paradigms of mothers and preadolescents in interaction with one another with two assessments occurring over the span of one year. The information derived with respect to adolescent emotional reactivity in the context of the family and links to developmental outcomes as well as the methods to be developed in the present application will be of substantial interest to several NIH institutes cutting across different mission priorities and research objectives. In particular, the assessment tools for modeling multiple levels of analysis constructs and associated developmental, physical and mental health outcomes will be of relevance to both NICHD and NIMH. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The methodologies produced from this project will have important public health significance through the derivation of new methods for investigating patterns of regulation of emotional reactivity in adolescents during conflict from multiple levels of analysis. Furthermore, this project will enhance greater understanding of how emotional reactivity in the family informs pathways between adolescent exposure to family conflict and their socio-emotional and stage-salient adjustment.

描述（申请人提供）：当前应用程序是为了响应FOA而开发的（PA-08-212：“行为和社会科学中的方法和测量”），旨在通过来自发展精神病理学，心脏病学，通信、电气工程和计算机科学。此外，作为这些方法和定量进步的潜在效用的一个例证，我们测试了我们的心理生理反应的多层次量化的可行性，作为一种潜在的机制，告知青少年暴露于家庭冲突和他们的心理调整之间的途径在更广泛的发展心理病理学框架。研究申请的具体目标是：（1）开发更可行和经济的无线系统，用于在家庭互动任务期间有效地捕获作为情绪反应基础的生理和行为过程，（2）测试无线的心理测量特性、与文献中当前使用的这些领域的标准评估相关的动态生理和语言测量，（3）研究新的潜在变量增长建模方法在多水平系统中建模功能的实用性，以及（4）在发展过程模型预测的指导下，通过检查发展过程模型中反应性个体成分中个体差异的预测因子和后遗症，检查心理生理结构的多系统评估是否具有发展意义。为了实现这些目标，研究小组将利用母亲和青春期前儿童的观察范式，在一年的时间内进行两次评估。关于家庭背景下青少年情绪反应的信息、与发展结果的联系以及本申请中要开发的方法将对跨不同使命优先事项和研究目标的几个NIH研究所产生重大兴趣。特别是，评估工具建模多层次的分析结构和相关的发展，身体和心理健康的结果将是相关的NICHD和NIMH。 公共卫生关系：该项目产生的方法将通过从多个层面分析推导出调查冲突期间青少年情绪反应调节模式的新方法，具有重要的公共卫生意义。此外，这个项目将提高更好地了解如何在家庭中的情绪反应通知青少年暴露于家庭冲突和他们的社会情绪和阶段显着的调整之间的途径。
