  • Title: Young children's views about conflict with peers: a comparison of the daughters and sons of depressed and well women.
    Author: Hay DF, Zahn-Waxler C, Cummings EM, Iannotti RJ.
    Journal: J Child Psychol Psychiatry; 1992 May; 33(4):669-83. PubMed ID: 1601942.
    Abstract:
    Forty five-year-olds were interviewed about conflict with peers, based on a simulated dispute between two glove puppets. Recommendations about tactics to be used in resolving conflicts were affected by the child's gender and experience of being cared for by a depressed mother. In particular, the daughters of depressed women were less likely than other children to recommend aggressive solutions to peer conflict; in contrast, the sons of depressed women were more likely than others to advocate aggression. Girls in general recommended more socialized tactics than boys did.
