According to the SCERTS® Model (www.scerts.com), it is
“the development of the ability to maintain a well-regulated
emotional state to cope with everyday stress, and to be
most available for learning and interacting.”

As adults, we constantly emotionally regulate ourselves all
the time whether it be for calming purposes or for energyboosting purposes, etc. Our children need our direct help to
regulate themselves as well as how to learn how to regulate
themselves without our help.
Mutual Regulation?
When the adult and child work together to achieve a wellregulated emotional state for the child.

Self Regulation?
When the child works by his or herself to achieve a wellregulated emotional state.
