Children with behavioural, emotional or social difficulties, upon entering the school, are often at an increased risk of poorer academic and health outcomes. Whilst children largely learn early emotion regulation skills and self\u2010regulation through parental observation and modelling, a known benefit of mindful parenting, an understanding of how mindful parenting and child emotional regulation relate to one another during these important early years of schooling remains limited. This study aimed to determine if there is a bi\u2010directional relationship between mindful parenting and child emotion regulation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A cross\u2010lagged panel structural equation model (SEM) was used to examine the bi\u2010directional associations with data obtained from a single staged cluster sample drawn from the Minds@Play study cohort.
