Abstract
The relations among dispositional regulation / control, resiliency, and quality of children's social functioning are examined, both conceptually and empirically. Differences between effortful (voluntarily controlled) and less voluntary (i.e., passive or reactive) modes of control are delineated and hypotheses are offered regarding their relations to children's social functioning. Recent empirical findings are presented that demonstrate the following: (a) effortful regulation and impulsivity (viewed as reflecting low passive control) relate differently to children's adjustment, (b) effortful control and more passive aspects of control (i.e., impulsivity) are both related to resiliency and contribute some unique variance to its prediction, and (c) resiliency relates to type of adjustment problems.
