Social Information Processing in Compliance Situations by Mothers of Behavior-Problem Boys.
Strassberg, Zvi
Child Development, v66 n2 p376-89 Apr 1995
Examined differences between mothers of behavior-problem boys (MBPs) and mothers of average boys (MABs)in processing information in compliance situations. Found the MBPs made greater attributions of defiant intent toward the child and experienced more anger than MABs in ambiguous stimulus situations and that MBPs expected more resistance in ambiguous and clear stimulus situations than MABs.
