Personality and Behavior in Parents of Temperamentally Inhibited and Uninhibited Children.

Rickman, Maureen D.; Davidson, Richard J.

Developmental Psychology, v30 n3 p346-54 May 1994

Parents of 30-month-old children were assessed on measures of affectivity, personality, and behavior. Parents of inhibited children showed lower extraversion, higher avoidance and shyness, and faster drawing times on a task that involved uncertainty than did parents of uninhibited children.
