In Japan similarities in Type A behavior between preschool children and their parents were investigated. Type A scores of 169 pairs of sons and their fathers, 130 pairs of daughters and their fathers, 158 pairs of sons and their mothers, and 121 pairs of daughters and their mothers were measured on the Japanese version of the Matthews Youth Test for Health for children and KG's (Kwansei Gakuin) Daily Life Questionnaire for parents. Self-ratings on the Hard-driving and Time-urgent scale of parents were correlated positively with teachers' Type A ratings of their sons, but no associations were found between scores of parents and their daughters. These results might be consistent with the hypothesis that children might learn Type A behaviors when their parents do not show much interest in child-rearing.
在日本，对学龄前儿童及其父母的A型行为相似性进行了调查。使用针对儿童的日本版马修斯青少年健康测试以及针对父母的关西学院大学日常生活问卷，对169对父子、130对父女、158对母子和121对母女的A型得分进行了测量。父母在“争强好胜与时间紧迫感”量表上的自评得分与教师对其子女性格A型的评分呈正相关，但未发现父母与女儿得分之间存在关联。这些结果可能与以下假设一致：当父母对养育子女不太感兴趣时，孩子可能会习得A型行为。
