Infant Temperament and Subject Loss in a Habituation Procedure.
Wachs, Theodore D.; Smitherman, Colleen H.
Child Development, v56 n4 p861-67 Aug 1985
A total of 114 infants at three age levels (11, 18, and 28 weeks) were rated by their mothers on a termperament questionnaire and subjected to a habituation procedure. Results suggest that subject loss in habituation studies may be the result of nonrandom individual difference factors and not just the result of temporary fluctuations in state. (Author/RH)
