Leblanc, Nancy; Boivin, Michel; Dionne, Ginette; Brendgen, Mara; Vitaro, Frank; Tremblay, Richard E.; Perusse, Daniel – Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology, 2008
The objectives of this study were to establish the different developmental trajectories of hyperactive-impulsive behaviors on the basis of both mother and father ratings at 19, 32, 50, and 63 months, and to examine the predictive validity of these trajectories with respect to later hyperactive-impulsive behaviors, as rated by teachers in the first…
