Children's Visual Avoidance of Threat: A Strategy Associated with Low Social Control.
Cortez, Victoria L.; Bugental, Daphne Blunt
Merrill-Palmer Quarterly, v40 n1 p82-97 Jan 1994
Two studies examined the relationship between children's perceived social control and their visual reactions to videotapes of positive, neutral, or fearful child-doctor interactions. Found that children with high levels of social control showed high visual engagement when viewing the fearful scenes, whereas low-control children showed relatively high levels of disengagement.
