Social Competence among Low-Income Preschoolers: Emotion Socialization Practices and Social Cognitive Correlates.

Garner, Pamela W.; And Others

Child Development, v65 n2 Apr p622-37 1994

Two studies investigated the relationship between emotion socialization variables, social cognitive knowledge, and children's social competence in preschoolers from low-income families. Found that mothers' self-reported emotion socialization practices were related to children's emotional knowledge and sibling caregiving behavior. (MDM)
