Summary

This chapter offers an overview of research on the socialization of coping and emotion-related regulation. We begin the review with our conceptualization of coping and regulation. We then provide an overview of research on the socialization of coping and regulation. Specifically, we cover the role of the quality of the parent–child relationship, parental disciplinary practices, and emotion-related socialization practices on children’s coping and emotion-related regulation. We next consider applications of this research to interventions. We conclude with a discussion of complexities in this research, with a particular focus on the cultural context, bidirectional/interactional relations, and methodological factors.
