Project description
 

The objectives of this research proposal are to examine (1) the phenomenology of parental injustice appraisals in response to child pain (including conditions under which such appraisals arise), (2) their impact upon child pain outcomes, and (3) the explanatory role of anger as a key emotional process indexed by attentional processing and associated caregiving behaviour, in addition to traditional self-report.
