Stability of Inhibition in a Swedish Longitudinal Sample.

Kerr, Margaret; And Others

Child Development, v65 n1 p138-46 Feb 1994

Examined Swedish children's inhibition behavior using mothers' and psychologists' ratings of inhibition at age 18 and 24 months to predict later ratings through age 16 years. Prediction was more reliable for children rated as very inhibited or very uninhibited than for those in nonextreme group through age six. Only for inhibited girls did early inhibition predict inhibition into adolescence. (MDM)
