We examined two aspects of temperamental approach in early infancy, positive reactivity and anger, and their unique and combined influences on maternal reports of child surgency and attention focusing at 4 years of age. One hundred and fourteen infants were observed for their positive reactions to novel stimuli at 4 months, and their anger expressions during arm restraint at 9 months. Child surgency and attention focusing at age 4 years were assessed by maternal report. Infants who expressed more anger to restraint were rated higher in surgency during early childhood relative to infants who expressed less anger. The effects of positive reactivity to novelty on attention focusing were moderated by anger to restraint. These findings suggest that infant temperamental approach tendencies are multifaceted and have both unique and combined influences on later maternal report of attention and social behavior.
我们研究了婴儿早期气质性趋近的两个方面,即积极反应性和愤怒情绪,以及它们对4岁儿童的活跃性和注意力集中程度的独特影响和综合影响,这些数据均来自母亲的报告。我们观察了114名婴儿在4个月大时对新刺激的积极反应,以及在9个月大时手臂被束缚期间的愤怒表现。4岁儿童的活跃性和注意力集中程度由母亲报告进行评估。与愤怒表现较少的婴儿相比,对束缚表现出更多愤怒的婴儿在幼儿期的活跃性得分更高。对新奇事物的积极反应性对注意力集中程度的影响受到对束缚的愤怒情绪的调节。这些发现表明,婴儿的气质性趋近倾向是多方面的,并且对后期母亲报告的注意力和社交行为具有独特和综合的影响。
