A Developmental Pathway From Early Behavioral Inhibition to Young Adults ’ Anxiety During the COVID-19 Pandemic
We examined a developmental pathway from behavioral inhibition (BI), a temperament char acterized by fearful responses towards novelty, to changes in young adults’ anxiety during the initial period of the pandemic. We hypothesized that a stable pattern of BI across early childhood would predict greater adolescent worry dysregulation, which in turn would predict increases in young adu lt anxiety during a stressful phase of the pandemic.
