- The Long Shadow of Temperament
- Jerome Kagan
- Nancy Snidman
- We have seen these children--the shy and the sociable, the cautious and the daring--and wondered what makes one avoid new experience and another avidly pursue it. At the crux of the issue is the study that Jerome Kagan and his colleagues have been conducting for more than two decades. Kagan and Nancy Snidman summarize the results of this unique inquiry into human temperaments, one of the best-known longitudinal studies in developmental psychology. These results reveal how deeply certain fundamental temperamental biases can be preserved over development.
