The paper shows that in male adolescents, lower cardiac vagal regulation links to greater emotion dysregulation and psychopathology, mediated by interoceptive accuracy, while this pathway is absent in females.

This study links early autonomic nervous system development to adolescent psychosocial outcomes, finding male-specific associations between infant heart rate and vagal heart rate variability trajectories and later psychosocial difficulties.

This study links vagally mediated heart rate variability (vmHRV) with longitudinal cortical thinning patterns in adolescents, showing region-specific associations during cortical maturation.
