Abstract:
Parents' perceptions of temperament in their three-month-old infants were examined in relation to prenatally measured parental characteristics and to objective indices of infant behavior at three months. Infant behavior and parental characteristics appear to make independent contributions to parents' perceptions in early infancy.
