Correspondence between physiological and self‐report measures of emotion dysregulation: A longitudinal investigation of youth with and without psychopathology

Abstract

Multilevel modeling analyses indicated that slopes in RSA collected across the three assessments were associated with later self-reported ER abilities at the transition into adolescence. These findings were replicated across contexts (baseline and emotional challenge), suggesting that adolescents whose physiological responding to emotional challenge improves also experience fewer difficulties with emotion regulation as they mature.
