In this commentary, I argue that including and operationalizing allostatic processes will become increasingly important in future research on parent–child biobehavioral coregulation. In particular, the conceptualization and modeling of dyadic oscillatory rhythms that align in expected ways with the child's developmental stage and that distinguish typical and atypical development will be useful in future work. Despite the inherent asymmetry characteristic of parent–child relationships, we should not forget to consider the child's effects on the parent within and across time, the additional environmental demands upon parents that shape parent–child coregulation, and variations in parent–child asymmetry by parental risk factors. Studying risk factors that are dyadic in nature, such as child maltreatment, may be particularly informative in gaining a deeper understanding of how parent–child coregulation interfaces with developmental psychopathology. To best model parent–child coregulation as a dynamic system, it will be critical to employ more nonlinear analytic models and better represent the multiple hierarchical domains of coregulation and their interactions, including affect, cognition, behavior, and biology. Finally, in future research, a deeper application of existing dyadic and dynamic theories, as well as the generation of new dyadic developmental theories, will aid us in obtaining a stronger understanding of the developmental function and intervention implications of parent–child biobehavioral coregulation.

亲子共同调节作为一个动态系统：对 Wass 等人的评论。(2024)

在这篇评论中，我认为，在未来的亲子生物行为共同调节研究中，纳入并实施变速过程将变得越来越重要。特别是，二元振荡节律的概念化和建模，以预期的方式与儿童的发展阶段相一致，并区分典型和非典型发展，将在未来的工作中有用。尽管亲子关系具有固有的不对称特征，但我们不应该忘记考虑孩子在时间上和跨时间上对父母的影响，对父母形成亲子共同调节的额外环境要求，以及父母对孩子的不对称性的变化。风险因素。研究本质上是二元的风险因素，例如虐待儿童，对于更深入地了解亲子共同调节如何与发展精神病理学相互作用可能特别有用。为了将亲子共同调节最好地建模为动态系统，采用更多的非线性分析模型并更好地表示共同调节的多个层次领域及其相互作用（包括情感、认知、行为和生物学）至关重要。最后，在未来的研究中，对现有二元和动态理论的更深入应用，以及新的二元发展理论的产生，将有助于我们更好地理解亲子生物行为共同调节的发展功能和干预意义。
