The goal of this special issue was to compile current evidence delineating the impact of emotion-related socialization behaviors (ERSBs) on children’s emotion, self-regulation, and developmental outcomes.

Special issue contributors focused on longitudinal studies including ERSBs, reviews of the literature extending the original model, and the effectiveness of interventions designed to improve the emotional lives of children and their families.
