Kochanska, Grazyna; And Others

Found longitudinal stability in inhibitory control from toddlerhood to early school age, with inhibitory control increasing with age, and girls outperforming boys. Reaffirmed links between inhibitory control and multiple, diverse measures of children's conscience at early school age, including moral conduct, moral cognition, and moral self. (KB)
