Effective emotion regulation (ER) strategies are linked with healthy psychosocial functioning, and parenting behaviours and parents’ own ER have been linked to the development of their children’s own ER. The present study examined relations between emerging adults’ perceived parenting dimensions (warmth, psychological control, and behavioural control), their caregivers’ self-reported parenting dimensions, and emerging adults’ ER. We also examined how caregivers’ ER relates to their emerging adult children’s ER. Two dimensions of ER (cognitive reappraisal and emotional suppression) were examined. Participants included 466 emerging adults, and a subsample of 102 emerging adult-primary caregiver dyads, and 51 emerging adult-secondary caregiver dyads. Findings from analyses on emerging adults suggest that only perceived main and secondary caregivers’ warmth influenced their use of cognitive reappraisal (CR). In contrast, caregivers’ reported parenting did not influence emerging adults’ emotion suppression (ES) use. In addition, caregivers’ reported use of CR influenced emerging adults’ own use of CR, but caregivers’ use of ES did not. These findings suggest that it is the perception of parenting rather than what caregivers report doing that influences emerging adults’ ER. Limitations and directions for future research are considered.

有效的情绪调节 (ER) 策略与健康的心理社会功能有关，而养育行为和父母自身的 ER 与孩子自身 ER 的发展有关。本研究考察了新兴成年人的育儿感知维度（温暖、心理控制和行为控制）、他们的照顾者自我报告的育儿维度和新兴成年人的 ER 之间的关系。我们还研究了看护者的 ER 与他们新兴的成年子女的 ER 之间的关系。ER 的两个维度（认知重新评估和情绪抑制）进行了检查。参与者包括 466 名新兴成人，以及 102 名新兴成人-主要照顾者二人组和 51 名新兴成人-次要照顾者二人组的子样本。对新兴成年人的分析结果表明，只有感知到的主要和次要照顾者的温暖影响了他们对认知重评 (CR) 的使用。相比之下，照顾者报告的养育方式并未影响新兴成年人的情绪抑制 (ES) 使用。此外，护理人员报告的 CR 使用影响了新兴成年人自己对 CR 的使用，但护理人员对 ES 的使用没有影响。这些研究结果表明，影响新兴成年人 ER 的是对养育子女的看法，而不是照顾者报告的行为。考虑了未来研究的局限性和方向。但看护人对 ES 的使用没有。这些研究结果表明，影响新兴成年人 ER 的是对养育子女的看法，而不是照顾者报告的行为。考虑了未来研究的局限性和方向。但看护人对 ES 的使用没有。这些研究结果表明，影响新兴成年人 ER 的是对养育子女的看法，而不是照顾者报告的行为。考虑了未来研究的局限性和方向。
