ABSTRACT

Early parent-child relationship and child negative emotionality have both been studied as contributors to attachment security, but few studies have examined whether negative emotionality can moderate effects of parent-child relationship on security and whether the process is comparable across mother- and father-child dyads and different security measures. In 102 community families, we observed parent-child shared positive affect and infants’ anger proneness at 7 months, and attachment security at 15 months, using observer-rated Attachment Q-Set (AQS) and a continuous measure derived from Strange Situation Paradigm (SSP). For mother-child dyads, high shared positive affect and low anger proneness were associated with AQS security. Those effects were qualified by their interaction: Variations in shared positive affect were associated with security only for relatively more anger-prone children. That effect reflected the diathesis-stress model. For father-child dyads, shared positive affect was associated with security. There were no effects for SSP security with either parent.

摘要

早期亲子关系和儿童消极情绪都被研究为依恋安全的影响因素，但很少有研究探讨消极情绪是否可以调节亲子关系对安全的影响，以及这个过程在母子和父子之间是否具有可比性。成对和不同的安全措施。在 102 个社区家庭中，我们使用观察者评级的依恋 Q 集 (AQS) 和源自陌生情境范式的连续测量，观察了亲子共享的积极情感和婴儿在 7 个月时的愤怒倾向，以及 15 个月时的依恋安全感。 SSP）。对于母子二人组，较高的共同积极情感和较低的愤怒倾向与 AQS 安全性相关。这些影响是通过他们的互动来限定的：只有相对更容易愤怒的孩子，共同积极情感的变化才与安全感相关。这种效应反映了素质-压力模型。对于父子二人组来说，共同的积极情感与安全感相关。任何一方的 SSP 安全性都没有受到影响。
