M = Mother. F = Father. ER = Emotion Regulation (in response to frustration, 3–5.5 years). SR = Social Regulation (regulation of negative emotional tone in interaction with parent, regulation of negativity in social interaction, internalization of adults’ values, 10–12 years). AF = Attachment Figure. Note that all higher ER and SR scores denote more adaptive regulation.
