Effortful control is a regulatory component of emotion (Calkins & Hill, 2007). This descriptive study analyzed the relation between maternal co-regulation strategies and children self-regulation strategies in order to evaluate their effortful control skills.
19 dyads [mother-child] with children between 18 and 36 months old participated and were divided in three groups, the sample was taken from government�Ls nurseries. A transversal study with direct observation of the experimental situation was executed. Every dyad was recorded twice, the observed strategies were encoded and a high reliability (�¿=.86) was gotten. No significant statistical differences were found among the groups (X2= 26), but co-relations showed that maternal and child strategies changed in function of the age. Older children used preferably active attention strategies related with a higher effortful control that were linked with maternal strategies promoting autonomy.
El esfuerzo de control es un componente regulatorio de la emocion (Calkins & Hill, 2007). Este estudio descriptivo analizo la relacion entre las estrategias de corregulacion maternas y de regulacion de los ninos para evaluar su esfuerzo por controlar el enojo.
Participaron 19 diadas (madre-hijo) con ninos de entre 18 y 36 meses de edad, divididos en tres grupos; la muestra se tomo de estancias infantiles. Se realizo un estudio transversal con observacion directa de la situacion experimental. Se videograbaron dos sesiones por diada, las estrategias observadas se codificaron obteniendo una confiabilidad de �¿=.86. Los resultados no mostraron diferencias estadisticamente significativas entre los grupos (X2= 26), pero las correlaciones muestran que las estrategias maternas y las de los ninos cambiaron en funcion de la edad. Los ninos mayores utilizaron preferentemente estrategias de atencion activa y de mayor esfuerzo de control vinculadas a las estrategias maternas que promueven la autonomia.
