Expressive emotion regulation in response to stress following inoculation was examined in 30 18‐month‐olds. Fourteen were exposed to cocaine in utero and 16 were drug‐free. Findings indicated that the cocaine‐exposed group displayed fewer discrete negative expressions of distress and anger and more sadness in response to acute pain. These results suggest that cocaine exposure may exert an influence on the expression of emotion into the second year of life. © 1997 Michigan Association for Infant Mental Health
