Children's Action-Control Beliefs and Emotional Regulation in the Social Domain.
Lopez, David F.; Little, Todd D.
Developmental Psychology, v32 n2 p299-312 Mar 1996
A short-term longitudinal study of 314 U.S. military-dependent children (grades 2-6) in Berlin, Germany, examined whether children's coping strategies mediate relations between their action-control beliefs and anxiety. Consistent with previous literature, boys reported using antisocial coping more than did girls, and younger children reported using primary control coping strategies more than did older children.
