contents Pediatric Heart Rate Variability During Play and Neurocognitive Testing: The Influence of Parental Attitudes Towards Play Tony H. Liu Anna Sroka Jessica Zhang Kristin Jacobson Richard Gevirtz Joshua Kellman Karam Radwan Developmental Psychobiology ABSTRACT Parent‐child play is crucial in shaping child development, where play also facilitates autonomic nervous system integration. However, less is known about how parental perceptions of play impact childhood autonomic profiles, which have been associated with enhanced feelings of safety, responsiveness, comfort, and improved learning. This study recorded heart rate variability (HRV) among a sample of young children aged 3–7 years old ( N = 45; 42% girls; 62% African American) while they performed neurocognitive tests and play activities, including tickling by a caregiver. Caregivers also completed questionnaires on parent–child play dynamics. Utilizing HRV recovery after play as a marker of autonomic regulation, correlation and multiple regression analyses showed that caregiver attitudes towards parent–child play correlated with the children's autonomic recovery profiles. These findings suggest children's autonomic outcomes are linked to parental attitudes and behaviors related to play. 10.1002/dev.70100 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor
