• Vagal Regulation and Observed Social Behavior in Infancy (2001, background): “The cardiac vagal tone index (VNA) developed by Porges (1985) has been identified as a marker for individual differences in temperament, specifically emotional reactivity and regulation (Calkins, 1997; Kagan, 1994; Stifter & Fox, 1991; Stifter & Jain, 1996).”
• Biosocial Studies of Antisocial and Violent Behavior in Children and Adults: A Review (2002, background): “Fearlessness theory receives support from the fact that autonomic underarousal also provides the underpinning for a fearless or uninhibited temperament in infancy and childhood (Fowles, Kochanska, & Murray, 2000; Kagan, 1994; Scarpa, Raine, Venables, & Mednick, 1997b).”
• Constructivist and Ecological Rationality in Economics (2003, unknown): “(Pinker, 1994; Kagan and Lamb, 1987; Kagan, 1994; Fiske, 1991).”
• Emotional Intelligence Training: A Case of Caveat Emptor (2006, methodology): “This is supported by research within school settings focusing on children’s and adolescents’ emotional learning (Hawkins, Catalano, Kosterman, Abbott, & Hill, 1999; Kusche & Greenberg, 2001) and some indication that such abilities may develop further through adulthood (Kagan, 1998; Vaillant, 2000).”
• Studying infant temperament via the Revised Infant Behavior Questionnaire (2003, background): “Cautions regarding parental report have been raised, however, with concerns about potential error ( Kagan, 1994; Rothbart & Bates, 1998; Rothbart & Goldsmith, 1985).”
• The Role of Subjective Well-Being in Positive Youth Development (2004, background): “Along these lines, Kagan (1994) hypothesized that a biologically based emotional style—inhibited or uninhibited—channels positive and negative affects.”
• Optimism and Attentional Bias for Negative and Positive Stimuli (2001, background): “It is possible that physiological effects will be observed only in the tail(s) of the optimism distribution (cf. the relationship between inhibited temperament and physiology; Kagan, 1994).”
• A contemporary learning theory perspective on the etiology of anxiety disorders: it's not what you thought it was. (2006, background): “As for specific phobias, one source of individual differences involves the temperamental diathesis known as behavioral inhibition, which may influence the outcome of exposure to socially traumatic experiences and/or socially anxious models (e.g., Gray, 1982; Kagan, 1994).”
• Emotional Intelligence and Social Interaction (2004, background): “In fact, research suggests that people can compensate for earlier temperamental dispositions as they grow older and develop social and emotional skills (e.g., Kagan, 1998).”
• Boldness, behavioral inhibition and learning (2003, background): “It could be argued that guppies that consistently do not inspect predators could be labeled “inhibited,” while guppies that consistently inspect appear to map onto the concept of “boldness” (KAGAN 1994).”
• Emphasizing Intraindividual Variability in the Study of Development Over the Life Span (2010, background): “Developmental researchers have long understood the basic ideas concerning how early events may be predictors, if not causes, of later events (e.g., see Kagan, 1994, 2007).”
• Emotion regulation abilities and the quality of social interaction. (2005, background): “Second, people can develop emotional regulation abilities to compensate for temperamental dispositions (Kagan, 1998), undermining the relationship observed between measures of emotion regulation abilities and measures of dispositional affect.”
