DESCRIPTION:Using a longitudinal and ecological approach\, the current pap
 er aimed to identify factors that foster positive adaptation by elucidatin
 g the effects of temperament\, attachment\, Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal
  (HPA) axis reactivity (reflected in levels of cortisol)\, and the support
 iveness of classroom contexts on young children's first school experiences
  and assess their physiological responses to enrolment. The findings under
 scored the significant influences of surgency (one dimension of temperamen
 t) and security of attachment on initial school experiences\, suggesting t
 hat\, although the quality of caring environments moderates\nstress reacti
 vity to new environment\, early behavioural coaching for children who are 
 high in surgency may help them become more resilient by facilitating their
  successful mastery or tasks and relationships during the\nearly year.
