Beliefs about Children: A Comparative Study of Mothers, Teachers, Peers, and Self.
Miller, Scott A.; Davis, Teresa L.
Child Development, v63 n5 p1251-65 Oct 1992
Children predicted their performance on cognitive tasks; performed the tasks; and assessed their activity preferences and personality traits. Children's mothers and teachers made predictions about the children's performance and assessments. Teachers were as accurate as mothers in judging children's cognitive abilities but not in judging their assessments. (BC)
