Description: In collaboration with Nicole M. Cain (Rutgers), Chiara De Panfilis (Univ. of Parma), Michael J. Roche (Penn State – Altoona), and John F. Clarkin (WCMC), we have demonstrated how self-regulatory skills such as effortful control (EC) may
protect against automatic response tendencies, including biases in social
cognitive perceptions. We have evaluated
the costs of low EC on relational functioning by identify the interpersonal
profiles of those at varying levels of EC, and by using EMA to evaluate low EC’s
impact on daily interpersonal events:
