The dysregulation of social fear has been widely studied in children's shyness, but we know little about how shy children regulate during unfair treatment. We first characterized developmental patterns of children's shyness (N = 304, n = 153; 74% White, 26% Other) across 2 (M = 2.07), 3 (M = 3.08), 4 (M = 4.08), and 6 (M = 6.58) years of age. Data collection occurred from 2007 to 2014. At age 6, the high stable group had higher cardiac vagal withdrawal and lower expressed sadness and approach-related regulatory strategy than the low stable group when being treated unfairly. Although shy children may be more physiologically impacted by being treated unfairly, they may mask their sadness to signal appeasement.
社交恐惧失调在儿童害羞中得到了广泛研究，但我们对害羞儿童在受到不公正待遇时如何进行自我调节知之甚少。我们首先描述了儿童害羞的发展模式（N=304，n=153；74%为白人，26%为其他种族），跨越了 2 岁（M=2.07）、3 岁（M=3.08）、4 岁（M=4.08）和 6 岁（M=6.58）。数据收集于 2007 年至 2014 年进行。在 6 岁时，与低稳定组相比，高稳定组在受到不公正待遇时，心脏迷走神经撤退较多，表现出的悲伤和与接近相关的调节策略较少。尽管害羞的孩子可能更容易受到不公正待遇的生理影响，但他们可能会掩饰自己的悲伤，以表示安抚。
