Let me know what you think! - In episode 8, I started discussing temperament theory with an introduction to Alexander Thomas and Stella Chess.  They first developed a temperamental formulation by following 141 children longitudinally and proposed 9 dimensions of temperament that can be reduced to three basic categories: Easy, Difficult, or Slow-to-warm-up temperament.  There were many researchers to follow and today I am going to compare and contrast a number of them, including Jerome Kagan, Jeffery Allan Gray, Mary Rothbart, and then highlight researchers who focussed extra attention on parenting and social development’s interactions with temperament - Nancy Eisenberg, Alice Schermerhorn and John Bates.Referenced resources can be found within the show transcripts at https://psydactic_caps.buzzsprout.com Feedback can be emailed to [email protected] OR submitted via a form at https://psydactic.com.This is not medical advice.
