- Child Effortful Control Moderates the Link Between Parenting Stress and Child Parasympathetic Regulation: Interactions Across Contexts and Measures Aubrey B. Golden Daniel Ewon Choe Leah C. Hibel Madeline R. Olwert Developmental Psychobiology ABSTRACT Parenting stress—psychosocial challenges from the parental role—is strongly tied to children's self‐regulatory abilities. Although cognitive and physiological facets of self‐regulation are integrated, research on parenting stress and children's parasympathetic activity is virtually absent. Additionally, few studies have examined changes in children's parasympathetic regulation across settings with and without a parent present. This study examined whether parenting stress is differentially associated with children's parasympathetic activity, indexed by respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA), as a function of their effortful control (EC). We tested whether interactions varied across EC measures (parent‐reported vs. task‐assessed) and the context of children's physiology assessment (child vs. parent–child). Parents ( N = 67, M = 38.01 years) and children ( N = 70, M = 51.41 months) provided data during a 2‐h lab visit. Results showed that parent‐reported EC moderated the association only in the parent–child context, whereas the task‐assessed EC moderation effect was present in both contexts. However, the effect of parenting stress on child RSA at levels of task‐assessed EC differed across contexts. Parallels in patterns of findings are discussed with reference to ecological affinity and whether a similar adaptive process emerges when both cognitive and physiological self‐regulation are assessed under comparable contextual demands. 10.1002/dev.70059 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
