Abstract

Respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA; a measure of respiratory modulation of vagal control of heart rate) is a dynamic process. For mothers, RSA functioning has been associated with depressive symptoms and coincides with supportive parenting. However, research has largely focused on RSA suppression (i.e., difference score from rest to stress task). The present study examined depressive symptoms and supportive parenting with RSA instability—a dynamic measure of the magnitude of RSA change across a task. In two samples of mothers (N = 210), one with preschoolers (Study 1: n = 108, M_age = 30.68 years, SD = 6.06, 47.0% Black, 43.0% White) and one with adolescents (Study 2: n = 102, M_age = 35.51, SD = 6.51, 75.2% Black), RSA instability was calculated during an interaction task. In both studies, instrumental supportive parenting behaviors were negatively related to RSA instability. Findings provide preliminary support for RSA instability as an indicator of physiological dysregulation for mothers.

学龄前儿童和青少年母亲的 RSA 不稳定性与观察到的支持性养育行为有关

呼吸窦性心律失常（RSA；衡量呼吸对迷走神经控制心率的调节）是一个动态过程。对于母亲而言，RSA 功能与抑郁症状相关，并与支持性养育相吻合。然而，研究主要集中于 RSA 抑制（即从休息到压力任务的差异分数）。本研究通过 RSA 不稳定性（RSA 在整个任务中变化幅度的动态量度）对抑郁症状和支持性养育进行了研究。在两个母亲样本（N = 210）中，一个是学龄前儿童（研究 1：n = 108，年龄 = 30.68 岁，SD = 6.06，47.0% 黑人，43.0% 白人），另一个是青少年（研究 2：n = 102，年龄 = 35.51，SD = 6.51，75.2% 黑人），在互动任务中计算 RSA 不稳定性。在这两项研究中，工具性支持养育行为与 RSA 不稳定性呈负相关。研究结果为将 RSA 不稳定性作为母亲生理失调的指标提供了初步支持。

期刊介绍： Developmental Psychobiology is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes original research papers from the disciplines of psychology, biology, neuroscience, and medicine that contribute to an understanding of behavior development. Research that focuses on development in the embryo/fetus, neonate, juvenile, or adult animal and multidisciplinary research that relates behavioral development to anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, genetics, or evolution is appropriate. The journal represents a broad phylogenetic perspective on behavior development by publishing studies of invertebrates, fish, birds, humans, and other animals. The journal publishes experimental and descriptive studies whether carried out in the laboratory or field. The journal also publishes review articles and theoretical papers that make important conceptual contributions. Special dedicated issues of Developmental Psychobiology , consisting of invited papers on a topic of general interest, may be arranged with the Editor-in-Chief. Developmental Psychobiology also publishes Letters to the Editor, which discuss issues of general interest or material published in the journal. Letters discussing published material may correct errors, provide clarification, or offer a different point of view. Authors should consult the editors on the preparation of these contributions.
