Abstract

Emotion development is best understood within the context of cognitive processes, supporting a model of cognition–emotion integration focused on the development of self-regulation. Literature on the means by which cognition affects emotion processes tends to emphasize attentional control and executive function frameworks. Research on emotion affecting cognitive processes tends to focus on negative and positive emotions, typically from a temperament framework or emotion frameworks. Cognition and emotion as interactive processes are highlighted as we describe our self-regulation model, which also includes prenatal, parenting, and larger environmental components. We end with critical questions for future research.
