Abstract:
Individuals' stability on the nine NYLS temperament variables was studied longitudinally in 160 children from the ages of six months to one, two, and three years. Stability was typically statistically significant but only moderately strong at a maximum. Greatest stability was found for Rhythm, Approach, Adaptability, Activity, Mood, and Distractibility.
