Key result
Cognitive-oriented self-regulation was significantly associated with recovery respiratory sinus arrhythmia, but not reactivity, in preschool children.
Why the study?
The study examined the association between behavioural dimensions of self-regulation and respiratory sinus arrhythmia as a marker of cardiac autonomic functioning in preschool children.
Are behavioural dimensions of self-regulation associated with respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) in preschool children?

Are behavioural dimensions of self-regulation associated with respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) in preschool children?
Cognitive-oriented self-regulation in preschool children is significantly associated with recovery respiratory sinus arrhythmia, a marker of cardiac autonomic functioning.
Hypothesis-generating in preschoolers; leaves open causal mechanisms and clinical relevance of RSA recovery.
The present study examined the association between behavioural dimensions of self-regulation and respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA), a marker of cardiac autonomic functioning in a sample of preschool children in the United States. Sixty-six children's emotion- and cognitive-oriented dimensions of self-regulation were examined with respect to changes in RSA (reactivity and recovery). Results showed that children's recovery RSA, which indicates the ability to return to homeostasis, but not reactivity, was significantly associated with the cognitive-oriented self-regulation.

Lee et al. (2020) reported an observational. Behavioural dimensions of self-regulation (emotion- and cognitive-oriented) was evaluated on Changes in respiratory sinus arrhythmia (reactivity and recovery). Cognitive-oriented self-regulation was significantly associated with recovery respiratory sinus arrhythmia, but not reactivity, in preschool children.
