Empirical Dissociations between Temperament and Behavior Problems: A Response to the Sanson, Prior, and Kyrios Study.
Sheeber, Lisa B.
Merrill-Palmer Quarterly, v41 n4 p554-61 Oct 1995
Addresses the controversy regarding the conceptual overlap between difficult child temperament and behavior problems using treatment outcome study data. Forty mothers of preschool children were randomly assigned to either a temperament-focused parent-training program or a wait-list control group. Results suggest that the observed associations between child temperament and behavior problems are meaningful and genuine, and not artificial. (AA)
