Continuity and Change in Inhibited and Uninhibited Children.
Pfeifer, Marcie; Goldsmith, H. H.; Davidson, Richard J.; Rickman, Maureen
Child Development, v73 n5 p1474-85 Sep-Oct 2002
Examined longitudinally changes in inhibition from toddler age to age 4 and age 7 years. Found that temperament change in children who tested as inhibited or uninhibited as toddlers was more common than remaining extremely inhibited or uninhibited, but that change was largely limited to intermediate groups. Subgroups distinguished by responses on measures of shyness, inhibitory control, impulsivity, behavioral inhibition, and exuberance showed stable outcomes. (JPB)
