Children's Personality Judgments of Dominant and Submissive Teachers.
Soppe, Herman J. G.
European Journal of Psychology of Education, v6 n1 p65-71 Mar 1991
Discusses a study of students' personality judgments of adults presented as teachers. Reports that judgments were factually structured and influenced by (1) the role played by the adults, and (2) the children's ages. Finds that younger children produced more positive judgments with dominant traits being described more positively. Concludes that children can ascribe psychological characteristics after a short time. (DK)
