Mother–Child Biobehavioral Synchrony and Its Association With Social Functioning in Autistic School-Aged Children / Carly MOSER in Autism Research, 19-2 (February 2026)

This study examined whether moment-to-moment physiological synchrony?indexed via respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA)?and its interface with global levels of behavioral synchrony was associated with the pragmatic language skills and friendship quality of school-aged autistic children in 40 mother?child dyads. Mother?child dyads participated in a collaborative task, from which RSA synchrony and behavioral synchrony were assessed. Mothers and their autistic children demonstrated negative RSA synchrony, such that when one partner displayed an increase in RSA, the other partner showed a decrease in RSA. The extent of behavioral synchrony between mothers and their children did not moderate the strength of concordance between mother and child RSA. Negative RSA synchrony was associated with better pragmatic language skills in autistic children from mother?child dyads who displayed high levels of behavioral synchrony. These findings highlight the complexity of dyadic synchrony, suggesting that the coordination of mother?child RSA, in conjunction with behavioral synchrony, may aid in the development of social skills in autistic children that extend beyond the immediate caregiver context. However, larger longitudinal studies are needed to confirm this.

Parent Facilitation of Child Emotion Regulation in ASD: An Ecological Momentary Assessment Study / Aimee K. ROVANE in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 55-12 (December 2025)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 55-12 (December 2025) . - p.4197-4211 Titre : Parent Facilitation of Child Emotion Regulation in ASD: An Ecological Momentary Assessment Study Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Aimee K. ROVANE, Auteur ; Robert M. HOCK, Auteur ; Chih-Hsiang YANG, Auteur ; Kimberly J. HILLS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.4197-4211 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Parents play a substantial role in their children’s emotion regulation (ER) abilities. Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often have difficulties regulating their emotions, which can manifest as externalizing behavioral issues. Parents of children with ASD facilitate their children’s ER development in response to unique challenges and stressors, often developing resiliency but other times contributing to their children’s dysregulation and behavioral challenges. It is unclear how much momentary stress attenuates parents' emotional facilitation of child ER and its effect on child behavioral functioning. Using an ecological momentary assessment approach, the current study explores this process by considering how parents of children with ASD facilitate child ER through (1) parent ER ability, (2) emotion socialization style, and (3) expressed emotion. Multilevel models explored the relative influences of parent ER facilitation on the association between momentary parent stress and behavioral intensity. Results suggest that parent ER abilities and specific emotion socialization styles interact with momentary parent stress and child behavior, whereas emotional climate of the home impacts child behavior more directly. The role of parent ER facilitation in the context of parent stress and children with ASD and behavioral problems is complex and multifaceted. Implications for further supporting children’s emotional development via parent involvement are discussed.
