Document Summary

Although emotions have universal aspects, there are individual differences in emotion. Physical aggression is greatest between 24 to 42 months and declines steadily thereafter. Children"s ability to use language influences how they regulate their emotions. Mobility has an important effect; when infants begin to move, their need for an intense signaling system lessens. One view is that regulation starts with the modulation of the expression of emotion. in children, this is initially fostered by the caregiver, and gradually becomes internalized by the child. Emotion regulation: individual differences in intensity, frequency, and duration of emotions. refers to the processes involved in modifying emotional reactions: the coping process that lessen or augment the intensity of experience. regulatory processes affect every stage of the emotion process: appraisal, evaluation, suppression of urges, as well as the selection and control of very kinds of expression and action.
