The Socialization of Compassionate Behavior by Child Care Teachers.
Kienbaum, Jutta
Early Education and Development, v12 n1 p139-53 Jan 2001
Examined how child care teachers' socialization practices and child characteristics jointly predicted children's sympathetic-prosocial responding. Found that child characteristics and socialization practices played an important role in children's interpersonal functioning, and the ability of the teacher to interact in a warm, affectionate way was of central importance for the development of emotional competence in children.
