Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry and Allied Disciplines, v22 n3 p247-61 Jul 1981

Children 6, 11, and 15 years old were interviewed about their concept of emotion. Replies indicated the child's concept of emotion changed markedly between 6 and 11 but indicated no marked changes thereafter. The changing conception of emotion was manifested in replies regarding the identification, regulation, and effects of emotion. (Author/DB)
