Vaughn, Brian E.; And Others
Child Development, v55 n3 p990-1004 Jun 1984
Delay/response inhibition in the presence of an attractive stimulus and compliance with maternal directives in a clean-up task were observed among subjects 18, 24, and 30 months of age. Results suggested (1) achievement of self-control is a major developmental accomplishment, and (2) individual differences in self-control emerge and are consolidated during the second and third years of life.
