The Development of Children's Moral Sensibility: Individual Differences and Emotion Understanding.

Dunn, Judy; And Others

Developmental Psychology, v31 n4 p649-59 Jul 1995

Developmental changes and individual differences in children's conceptions of transgression were studied in 46 children from preschool through 1st grade. Differences in response to moral transgressions in kindergarten were related to mothers' control management and to siblings' friendly behavior in the preschool period, early understanding of emotions, and verbal ability.
