contents Interactions among stress, behavioral inhibition, and delta–beta coupling predict adolescent anxiety during the COVID‐19 pandemic Michelle L. Ramos Anna M. Zhou Marisa N. Lytle Sarah Myruski Koraly Pérez‐Edgar Kristin A. Buss Developmental Psychobiology AbstractThe COVID‐19 pandemic brought about unprecedented changes and uncertainty to the daily lives of youth. The range of adjustment in light of a near‐universal experience of COVID restrictions highlights the importance of identifying factors that may render some individuals more susceptible to heightened levels of anxiety during stressful life events than others. Two risk factors to consider are temperamental behavioral inhibition (BI) and difficulties in emotion regulation (ER). As such, the current paper focused on BI examined prior to COVID, because of its developmental link to anxiety and ER, as difficulties may be associated with differences in anxiety. We examined a neurocognitive marker of ER processes, delta–beta coupling (DBC). The current paper had two goals: (1) to examine BI in relation to COVID‐related worry and social anxiety experienced during the pandemic, and (2) to explore the role of individual differences in early DBC in the relationship between BI and anxiety outcomes 6 months apart during COVID‐19 (n = 86; T1 Mage = 15.95, SD = 1.73; T6 Mage = 16.43, SD = 1.73). We found support for the moderating role of DBC in the relationship between BI levels and social anxiety disorder (SAD) symptom severity during the pandemic. Here, high BI was predictive of increased SAD symptom levels in adolescents with stronger DBC. 10.1002/dev.22485 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor
