Maternal Responsiveness and Child Compliance: The Role of Mood as a Mediator.
Lay, Keng-Ling; And Others
Child Development, v60 n6 p1405-11 Dec 1989
Two studies examined the relationship between maternal responsiveness, child compliance, and mood in 54 mothers and their 4-year-old children. Responsive play increased positive mood but did not affect arousal levels. Children induced into positive moods complied more and with shorter latencies than children induced into negative moods.
