The effects of parenting on emotion and self-regulation

The capacity to regulate one’s own arousal, attention, emotion, and cognition to manage goal-directed behaviors is a crucial skill that impacts on almost every area of one’s life. The development of such self-regulatory skills during childhood is considered an early indicator for later life successes, as effective self-regulation is predictive of a multitude of short and long-term outcomes including school-readiness, relationships with peers and family, academic achievement, feelings of higher self-worth, ability to cope with stress, less substance abuse and law breaking, and better mental health. Children’s self-regulatory capacities are greatly influenced by environmental experiences, such as the quality of parenting they receive. This chapter considers ways in which parenting facilitates self-regulation in children. Following a brief overview of the normative development of self-regulation during childhood, the chapter specifically examines the impact of parenting on the development of children’s executive functions, effortful control, compliance, and emotion regulation. A range of classic theoretical models are reviewed and empirical studies showcased. As self-regulation is a broad and multidimensional construct, the chapter also discusses some of the related conceptual and methodological issues

Media temporalities of the elderly : evolutions in stability This article shows the context of analysis and the first results of a research on media temporalities of the elderly. Several works have finely analysed the diversity of the media practices and studied meanings of media uses. I wish to continue these analyses by insisting on the evolutionary and dynamic aspect of the practices and temporalities of users having expanded, enhanced, so called "interactive" radio and especially television programming. A priori, the elderly, upon retirement, have a "full-time free time". Their media practices seem strongly influenced by their first experiments ; the appropriation of the various peripheral accessories which gradually came with the media, to the latest digital ones, seems to reinforce their habits of watching television. Their representations and relations with times and media are very far away from the image of television like omnipresent media or "devourer of time". Rather, their media practices are to be understood like a temporality of the occupation, according to the expression of Gerard Derèze, characterized by interest and utility. A particular glance at the users who do not carry out a systematic selection of the programs, accepting the unforeseen, highlights an approach of media and time that allow "useful encounter" which I would qualify in a first stage by : "chance and encounter" and "random and the following". The few points presented here make me assume that the global relation of the autonomous elderly persons to the media can evolve when confronted to their new temporal framework and the new program offer, whereas their representations and use of the media remain quite stable
