CWS and TDC are similar in terms of their overall underlying " temperament structure, as measured by a parental temperament " questionnaire; b. CWS, compared to TDC, are higher in positive and/or negative " reactivity and lower in self-regulation, as measured by a parental " temperament questionnaire. ② Attentional processes (self-regulation), as measured by cognitive " computer tasks, are less efficient in CWS compared to TDC. " ③ Inhibitory control (self-regulation), as measured by cognitive computer " tasks, is less efficient in CWS compared to TDC. Conceptualization! Working hypothesis! Hypothesis 1! Hypothesis 2!
