An Experimental, Observational Investigation of Children's Responses to Peer Provocation: Developmental and Gender Differences in Middle Childhood.
Underwood, Marion K.; Hurley, Jennifer C.; Johanson, Chantrelle A.; Mosley, Jennifer E.
Child Development, v70 n6 p1428-46 Nov-Dec 1999
Observed a laboratory play session to study development of anger expression during middle childhood. Found that 8- to 12-year-olds were remarkably composed in response to taunts from a same-age, same-sex confederate and to losing a computer game for a desirable prize. Also found gender differences in negative comments and gestures, and age differences in gestures, facial expression, and silence. (Author/KB)
