Taiwanese Infants' and Toddlers' Interactions with a Baby in a Group Setting.

Lee, Yi-Chia; Jessee, Peggy O.

Early Child Development and Care, v134 p75-87 Jul 1997

Investigated the social interactions of 18 Taiwanese infants and toddlers with a baby in a group setting. Compared videotaped responses and other mediating issues with those of American children in a similar scenario. Found that Taiwanese toddlers demonstrated significantly more interactions toward the baby than did American toddlers. Children with siblings exhibited more interaction than did those without. (JPB)
