De invloed van sensitiviteit van de moeder en zelfregulatie van het kind op fysiologische en gedragsmatige stressreactie bij kinderen van 12 maanden oud.

This study has examined the influence of sensitivity of the mother and self-regulation of the child on a) the physiological stress reactivity of the child and b) the temperamental reactivity of the child. The goal of this research was to gain more understanding of the factors that influence stress reactivity. Method: The sample of the research consisted of 175 mothers and their offspring. The children were examined at the age of 12 months. The Lab TAB Robot task was used to measure the temperamental reactivity and self-regulation of the child and the Still Face Paradigm (SFP) measured sensitivity of the mother. Physiological stress reactivity of the child was measured using VU-AMS. Results: This research showed a significant difference between temperamental reactivity and sensitivity of the mother. There were no further significant differences. Discussion: Children of mothers who were more sensitive, had a higher temperamental reactivity, than children of mothers who were less...Show moreThis study has examined the influence of sensitivity of the mother and self-regulation of the child on a) the physiological stress reactivity of the child and b) the temperamental reactivity of the child.
