Attributions and Response to the Arab-Israeli Conflict: A Developmental Analysis.
Hoffman, Michael A.; Bizman, Sharon
Child Development, v67 n1 p117-28 Feb 1996
Assessed the causes ascribed by 60 Israeli 4th- and 9th-graders for the Arab-Israeli conflict and the relationship of these attributions to their expectations and emotions. Found that adolescents tended to view causes as more constant or less fluctuating over time than did younger children. Results support an attributional model for understanding children's perception and response to conflict. (MDM)
