Key Takeaways - Self-regulation skills are crucial and distinct from self-control, starting from infancy but developing throughout life - The "marshmallow test" may measure stress response more than impulse control - ABA practices could benefit from incorporating neuroscience insights on regulation and stress across multiple domains - Explicit teaching of co-regulation and self-regulation skills may be necessary before tolerance/coping skills Self-Regulation vs Self-Control - Self-regulation involves managing arousal states and emotions - Self-control focuses on resisting impulses but may not address underlying regulation - Co-regulation with caregivers is key for developing self-regulation skills - Explicit teaching of regulation strategies may be needed, not just shaping behavior Stress and Regulation Domains - 5 domains: biological, emotional, cognitive, social, pro-social - Biological domain (sleep, nutrition, etc.) is foundational - Assessing stress/regulation across domains can inform intervention - Neuroception - automatic threat detection - impacts regulation Implications for ABA Practice - Need to assess regulation skills before/alongside other interventions - Consider biological factors, hormones, sleep, etc. in programming - Incorporate co-regulation and explicit self-regulation teaching - Use more holistic intake/assessment processes - Balance teaching tolerance with building regulation capacity
