Temperament Stability Between the Neonatal Period and 24 Months.

Riese, Marilyn L.

Developmental Psychology, v23 n2 p216-22 Mar 1987

The predictive relation between neonatal behavior and temperament at 24 months was examined for 67 infants selected from the full socioeconomic status (SES) distribution. Initial ratings were made when the infants were one to four days old. Irritable neonates were rated as more upset, less attentive to stimuli, and less responsive to the staff at 24 months.
