초록

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of children's temperament and mothers' reactions to negative emotions on the children's emotional regulation. The participants were 413 mothers of 4 to 6-year-old children. Cronbach's α, correlation analysis and hierarchical regression analyses were conducted using SPSS 22.0. The results of this study were as follows: First, the mothers’ reactions to negative emotions had a separate influence on children's emotional regulation besides children's temperament. Second, problem-focused responses and punitive responses had a common effect on children's emotional regulation. This study verified the effects of children's temperament and mothers' reactions to negative emotions on the children's emotional regulation, and it found out that mothers' reactions to negative emotions had an independent influence on children's emotional regulation.
