Sociocultural Variability in Infant Temperament Ratings.
Sameroff, Arnold J.; And Others
Child Development, v53 n1 p164-73 Feb 1982
Examines mother characteristics, child behavior, and mother's temperament ratings when their babies were 4 months old. The social status, anxiety level, and mental health status of the mother were all related to temperament ratings on the Carey Infant Temperament Questionnaire. Results suggest that individual differences in mothers may be the major contributor to ratings of infant temperament. (Author/RH)
