Karraker, Katherine Hildebrandt; And Others

Merrill-Palmer Quarterly, v40 n2 p171-89 Apr 1994

Mothers of 6 cohorts of infants at ages 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18 months were interviewed to determine their children's responses to potentially stressful daily events. Found older infants and temperamentally more difficult infants experienced more events and reacted with distress to a greater proportion of the events than did younger infants and temperamentally less difficult infants.
