Talk with Your Mother or Your Sibling? Developmental Changes in Early Family Conversations about Feelings.
Brown, Jane R.; Dunn, Judy
Child Development, v63 n2 p336-49 Apr 1992
Developmental changes in the pattern of 50 families' conversations about feelings were examined when the families' second-born children were 33 and 47 months old. The total amount of talk and the frequency of talk about feelings between sibling pairs increased, whereas the amount of mother-child conversation and references to feelings decreased. (GLR)
