from Part IV - Psychological Foundations of the Development of Coping
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 June 2023
Developmental research in human cognition has provided compelling evidence about how neurocognitive systems underlying the voluntary control of attention and self-regulation greatly contribute to the individual’s success in a wide range of aspects of life, such as academic and professional performance, social adjustment, and well-being (Moffit et al., 2011). In relation to this, much evidence shows the importance of attention regulation for children’s ability to cope with stressful life events. In the current chapter, we intend to provide a model for integrating research in temperament and cognitive development to understand the role played by self-regulatory processes on the development of coping responses to deal with adverse situations.
