This descriptive, retrospective study compared the temperament styles of 25 4- to 8-month-old infants who had colic with the temperament styles of 30 infants of similar age without colic. Infant temperament style was characterized by the mother's ratings of her infant's behavioral style. The degree of bother that the mother experienced in relationship to her infant's temperament also was examined. Results indicated that mothers of infants with colic rated their infants' temperaments differently than mothers of infants without colic in the temperament dimensions of activity and mood. Mothers of infants with colic were more bothered by the infants' temperament dimension of mood than were mothers of infants without colic. More infants in the colic group were characterized as difficult than were infants in the noncolic group. Individual temperament characteristics should be considered in the differential diagnosis of primary excessive crying (colic) during the newborn and infant periods.
这项描述性回顾性研究比较了25名患有腹绞痛的4至8个月大婴儿与30名年龄相仿无腹绞痛婴儿的气质类型。婴儿气质类型由母亲对其婴儿行为方式的评分来界定。同时也考察了母亲因婴儿气质而感到困扰的程度。结果表明，在活动和情绪的气质维度上，患有腹绞痛婴儿的母亲对其婴儿气质的评分与无腹绞痛婴儿的母亲不同。与无腹绞痛婴儿的母亲相比，患有腹绞痛婴儿的母亲更容易因婴儿情绪方面的气质维度而感到困扰。与非腹绞痛组的婴儿相比，腹绞痛组中更多婴儿被认定为难养型。在新生儿期和婴儿期原发性过度哭闹（腹绞痛）的鉴别诊断中，应考虑个体气质特征。
