This study examined the link between maternal emotion regulation (ER) and emotion parenting behaviors and child ER, particularly emphasizing the previously understudied potential associations between mothers' ER and concurrent emotion parenting behaviors.
Mother-child dyads participated in a self-report and observational study examining the associations between mothers' emotional regulation, parenting behaviors, and children's emotion regulation. Observed maternal emotion regulation was negatively associated with unsupportive parenting.
