The Contribution of Fathers in Emotion Socialization Webinar

Emotion socialization is the idea that learning, understanding, expressing, and regulating emotions happens in social contexts. This process directly connects with future socioemotional outcomes for children. Dr. Xin Feng will discuss her recent study of how fathers uniquely contribute to this development in 3- and 4-year-old children. Dr. Feng’s research centers on the interplay of temperament, emotion regulation, parent-child interaction, and contextual influences (e.g., parental mental health and culture) in the development of adaptive and maladaptive socioemotional functioning throughout childhood.
