A Correlational Study of Children's Temperament and Parent Behavior.
Nelson, Jo Ann Neville; Simmerer, Norma J.
Early Child Development and Care, v16 n3-4 p230-50 1984
Relates the self-reported behavior of 19 mothers and 19 fathers with their ratings of the activity levels, mood quality, intensity, approach behavior, adaptability, and persistence of three- to four-year-old children. Results suggest that the child's behavior style may contribute to the parents' behavior style and that mothers and fathers may differ in their perceptions. (Author/CB)
