Project Summary/Abstract Synchrony, or coordination of parent and child behaviors, emotions, and physiology during dyadic interactions, is critical to the development of adaptive emotion regulation skills in youth. Parental depression, however, has been shown to influence patterns of behavioral and physiological synchrony with their children, potentially via depressed parents’ own use of ineffective emotion regulation strategies. The primary goal of the present application is to use multi-method assessment to clarify whether patterns of parent-child synchrony in middle childhood vary based on a parental history of depression. I will first establish that such synchrony exists in both maternal- and paternal-child dyads (from different families) during middle childhood (Aim 1). Consistent with Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) principles and National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) priorities, I will consider synchrony within and across systems (behavioral, adrenocortical, and ANS synchrony) with 8-10-year-old children and their biological parents, who will provide physiological measures of stress (autonomic nervous system activity and cortisol reactivity) while completing a challenging task. Second, I will consider parental history of depression as a variable moderating the strength of parent-child synchrony (Aim 2). As exploratory aims, I will also consider parental sex and parental use of expressive suppression (ES), an emotion regulation strategy that is often overutilized among individuals with depression (14,22), as moderators of parent-child synchrony. Third, I will analyze cross-sectional relations between parent-child physiological synchrony and child outcomes, including internalizing symptoms and use of ES (Aim 3). Results from the proposed work will elucidate a potential mechanism in the intergenerational transmission of behavior problems and emotion dysregulation. Consistent with the aims of the Academic Research Enhancement Award (AREA) program, the current proposal represents meritorious research from which a diverse group of undergraduates will gain significant exposure to multi-method research. Furthermore, this project will strengthen the research environment by bringing a scientifically rigorous, federally-funded project to the department and university.

项目摘要/摘要 在二元互动中父母和孩子的行为、情感和生理的同步或协调， 对青少年适应情绪调节技能的发展至关重要。然而，父母的抑郁对 被证明会影响与孩子的行为和生理同步的模式，可能是通过 抑郁父母自身情绪调节策略的使用效果不佳。 本应用程序的主要目标是使用多方法评估来澄清 儿童期中期的亲子同步性因父母的抑郁病史而异。我会先确定 这种同步性在中期母子双方(来自不同家庭)中都存在 童年(目标1)。符合研究领域标准(RDoC)原则和国家研究院 心理健康(NIMH)优先事项，我将考虑系统内和系统间的同步性(行为、 肾上腺皮质和ANS同步)与8-10岁的儿童和他们的亲生父母，他们将提供 完成训练时的应激生理指标(自主神经系统活动和皮质醇反应性) 具有挑战性的任务。其次，我会把父母的抑郁病史作为一个变量来考虑，以此来调节 父子同步(目标2)。作为探索的目标，我还将考虑父母的性行为和父母对 表情抑制(ES)，一种情绪调节策略，在患有 抑郁(14，22)，作为亲子同步性的调节变量。第三，我将分析横截面关系 亲子生理同步性和孩子结局之间的关系，包括内化症状和使用 ES(目标3)。 这项拟议工作的结果将阐明一种潜在的代际传播机制 行为问题和情绪失调。与学术研究的目的相一致 增强奖(区域)计划，当前的提案代表有价值的研究，其中 不同的本科生群体将获得大量接触多方法研究的机会。此外，这一点 项目将通过将一个科学严谨的、由联邦资助的项目带到 系里和大学里。
