Popis: |
A common problem facing individuals is caregiver competency, i.e. responding to and en suring children's well-being. Traditional socialization theory assumes that information (in cluding that regarding health and safety topics) flows from parent to child. Current research takes the opposite approach, i.e. children's behavioral cues influence adult responses to them. This study tests an “experience” hypothesis by analyzing responses of a mother and a student sample to children depicted in a nonthreatening and a danger setting. Significant differences in type of response of adults to children were found for both settings. Findings are interpreted via the “experience” hypothesis in caregiving. |
