    Emotional regulation and aggression in children: The regulatory role of Turkish mothers' emotion socialization reactions
    (Wiley, 2023) Soydan, Sema Buyuktaskapu; Akalin, Nihal
    Objective The main aim of this research is to determine whether positive or negative maternal reactions in the field of emotional socialization play an intermediary role in the relationship between a child's emotional regulation skills and aggressive behavior. Background Previous findings show the effects of children's emotion regulation skills and parents' emotional socialization responses on aggressive behavior. However, researchers have not reported how children's emotion regulation skills influence maternal emotional socialization responses or investigated the mediating role of maternal emotional socialization responses on emotion regulation and aggressive behavior. Method The study was conducted with 285 mothers of 60- to 72-month-old children attending preschool. Research data were collected using the Children Aggression Scale-Parent Version, Dealing With Negative Emotions of Children, Emotional Regulation Checklist, Attachment Insecurity Screening Inventory, Parental Attitude Scale, and Child-Parent Relationship Scale. Results Positive and negative responses of mothers play a mediating role in the relationship between children's aggression and emotional regulation. Mothers' positive responses were effective in reducing the aggression level of children with a low level of emotional regulation. In addition, even if children's emotional regulation skills are low, positive responses are effective in reducing mothers' negative reactions and thus children's aggression levels. Implications Given the importance of promoting positive development in children, this study may have important implications for intervention and prevention programs. In particular, family-based interventions that encourage mothers to use emotional socialization applications and education/techniques that encourage parents' emotional regulation strategies are recommended.

    The moderating effects of a child's self-regulation skills in the relationship between a child's temperament and the behaviour of the parents
    (Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2022) Soydan, Sema Buyuktaskapu; Akalin, Nihal
    This study investigated the moderating effect of the self-regulation skills of children on their temperamental traits and on the mother's parenting behaviour. The random sampling method was used to obtain the study's participants: 253 children attending pre-school and their mothers. Research data was collected using the 'The child behaviour list short form' 'Alabama Parenting Questionnaire' 'Self-regulation assessment'. The results reveal that diligent control and self-regulation skills directly influence positive parental behaviour and that the relationship between diligent control and positive behaviour is differentiated depending on the self-regulating capacity of a child. Second, this study determined that negative affect temperament and self-regulation skills directly influence negative parental behaviour and that the relationship between negative affect and negative parental behaviour differs in accordance with a child's self-regulation skills.
