Indirect Effects and Infants' Reaction to Strangers.
Feiring, Candice; And Others
Developmental Psychology, v20 n3 p485-91 May 1984
Examined whether an infant's reaction to a stranger would be indirectly influenced by the infant observing a stranger-third party interaction. Subjects were 45 15-month-old infants. Results suggest indirect effects influence social interactions and show that significant others can play an important role in mediating these effects. (Author/RH)
