Citations in the corpus

• Interpersonal Emotion Regulation: A Review of Social and Developmental Components (2018, background): “As shown by the seminal works of Beckes and Coan (2011), Hofmann (2014), and Zaki and Williams (2013), it is important that psychological research on emotion regulation take an interpersonal and lifespan approach.”
• Interpersonal emotion regulation. (2013, background): “For instance, Coan and colleagues (Beckes & Coan, 2011; Coan, 2011; Coan, Schaefer, & Davidson, 2006) have compellingly demonstrated that the mere presence of others attenuates negative affect in the face of stressors.”
• New Look at Social Support: A Theoretical Perspective on Thriving through Relationships (2014, background): “This perspective is also consistent with Social Baseline Theory’s (Beckes & Coan, 2011) emphasis on risk-distribution and load-sharing with social network members to decrease costs of dealing with environmental demands and to free resources for engaging effectively with the environment.”
• How Positive Emotions Build Physical Health (2013, background): “Specifically, we posit that vagal tone, by virtue of its association with superior emotion regulation, supports people’s abilities to self-generate positive emotions.”
• Building a Tower of Babel? Integrating Core Motivations and Features of Social Structure into the Political Psychology of Political Action (2016, background): “This fits with a trend in psychology toward viewing human beings as social beings by default (e.g., Beckes & Coan, 2011; Fiske, 1991; Gergen, 2009; Van Zomeren, 2014, in press).”
