(c) there are significant sex differences in children’s aggression venting strategies and emotion comfort strategies; boys used more aggression venting strategies than girls, while girls used more emotion comfort strategies than boys;
(d) parents’ emotion-coaching was positively correlated with young children’s cognitive restructuring strategies,distraction relief strategies,and emotion comfort strategies; parents’ emotion-noninvolvement and emotion-dysfunction were negatively correlated with young children’s cognitive restructuring strategies, distraction relief strategies, and emotion comfort strategies; parents’ emotion-coaching were negatively correlated with young children’s aggression venting strategies; parents’ emotion-noninvolvement, emotion-dismissing, and emotion-dysfunction were positively correlated with young children’s aggression venting strategies.
