“…Temperaments characterized by high reactivity to negative emotions (i.e., negative affectivity) are associated with both internalizing and externalizing symptoms (Rothbart & Posner, ). Mothers who are prone to frustration and irritability may contribute to a family emotional climate characterized by high conflict and low social support, which can contribute to adolescent psychosocial adjustment difficulties (Kawaguchi, Welsh, Powers, & Rostosky, ; Thartori et al., ). The match or mismatch of parent and child temperament also contributes to youths’ developing psychosocial adjustment (Koh & Rueter, ).…”

“…For example, evidence from a between‐person study suggests that when both caregivers and children have temperaments characterized by negative affectivity, adolescents are more at risk for externalizing symptoms than if they alone (and not also their caregiver) has this temperamental trait (Koh & Rueter, ). Similarly, an adolescent who tends to have high regulatory capacity may be buffered from the potentially negative influence of having a mother who is highly prone to frustration and irritability, thereby avoiding within‐person increases in externalizing problems (Thartori et al., ).…”

Parent–Adolescent Dyads as Temporal Interpersonal Emotion Systems

Research on the role of parent–adolescent relationships in psychosocial adjustment needs a conceptual approach that specifies the processes by which development is nested in the relationship. I forward a new approach and emphasize the need to consider the unique elements that individuals bring to the dyadic system. I also emphasize the need to examine processes at multiple time scales. I highlight the complexity of dyadic system dynamics: Biological predispositions set the foundation for the parent–adolescent relationship and the emotion dynamics that emerge during interactions. As the system gets entrained through repeated interactions over longer time scales, real‐time dynamics coalesce into psychosocial adjustment, which in turn constrains real‐time dynamics. I review the evidence for each of these processes and discuss the implications.

“…Emotion-focused coping style is promoted by low strength of both excitation and inhibition of nervous processes, as well as by their low mobility [26]. Temperamental traits, stress appraisal and coping turned out to be related to prediction of internalizing and externalizing problems [27]. In the classical stress theory stressor appraisal is construed as a process in the course of which the stressful experience may be changed by cognitive re-rywalizacja, stres itp.…”

Purpose: Temperament is reflected in the way of the individual's responding to life events. The purpose of the study was to assess, firstly, the role of temperamental traits in adolescents' coping flexibility, and secondly, relationships of their coping flexibility with demographic and psychosocial characteristics. Methods: Participants in the study were 368 adolescents (131 boys and 236 girls) aged 15 to 20. The average age in the study group was 17.26 (SD = 1.90) years. The following methods were used: the Coping Flexibility Questionnaire for Adolescents (KERS-14A) by Małgorzata A. Basińska et al., the Pavlovian Temperament Survey (PTS) by Jan Strelau and Bogdan Zawadzki, and a demographicpsychosocial questionnaire developed for the purposes of this study by the present authors. Results: Temperament was found to be a statistically significant predictor of coping flexibility and its dimensions, explaining 12% of the variance in coping flexibility, and respectively: 6% of the changeability strategy, 20% of the variance in coping competencies, and 7% in reflexivity. The research findings show that the strength of excitation and the strength of inhibition processes were predictors of coping flexibility. Adolescents characterized by greater strength of both these processes turned out to flexibly deal with stress more often. Conclusions: Temperamental characteristics determine adolescents' flexibility in coping with stress. Coping flexibility depends also on their self-assessed socioeconomic status and health.

“…In addition to parental behaviors, recent studies also examined how the effects of parental personality on child development were moderated by child temperamental characteristics ( Achtergarde et al, 2015 ; Cipra, 2018 ; Thartori et al, 2018 ). For instance, Thartori et al (2018) reported that adolescents’ inhibitory control buffered the adverse effect of maternal irritability on their externalizing problems. That is, well-controlled adolescents appear to be less behaviorally problematic than others when experiencing mother’s strong irritability.…”

Maternal Personality and Child Temperamental Reactivity: Differential Susceptibility for Child Externalizing Behavioral Problems in China

et al. 2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

It is important to identify the developmental antecedents of externalizing behavioral problems in early childhood. The current study examined the main effects of maternal personality and its interactive effects with child temperamental reactivity in predicting child externalizing behavioral problems, indicated by impulsivity and aggression. This study was composed of 70 children (Mage = 17.6 months, SD = 3.73) and their mothers. The results showed that maternal agreeableness was negatively associated with child impulsivity. Child temperamental reactivity moderated the effect of maternal conscientiousness on child impulsivity in support of the differential susceptibility model. Specifically, for highly reactive children, maternal conscientiousness was negatively associated with child impulsivity whereas this association was non-significant for low reactive children. Child reactivity also moderated the contribution of maternal neuroticism to child impulsivity. That is, maternal neuroticism was negatively associated with impulsivity, only for highly reactive children.
