Abstract
The present study examined the treatment efficacy of a recently developed intervention for extremely inhibited preschoolers. We tested whether basal parasympathetic regulation, as indexed by respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA), moderated treatment effects. Results from our growth models suggested that children with higher RSA experienced greater desirable changes in social behaviors.
