  • Title: Girls' fearfulness as a product of mothers' fearfulness and fathers' authoritarianism.
    Author: Pickersgill MJ, Valentine JD, Pincus T, Foustok H.
    Journal: Psychol Rep; 1999 Dec; 85(3 Pt 1):759-60. PubMed ID: 10672734.
    Abstract:
    Data from 27 girls of 10 to 12 years were obtained on the Fear Survey Schedule for Children--Revised and from their parents on the Fear Survey Schedule for Adults-III and the California F Scale. Analyses indicated fathers' authoritarianism scores and mothers' fear scores have independent associations with children's fears and suggested greater behavioural overcontrol by fathers and the greater propensity of mothers to communicate threatening information.
