Assessing Temperament in One-to Three-Year-Old Children
Abstract
The initial development of the Toddler Temperament Scale (TTS) for determining temperamental characteristics in 1-to 3-year-old children is reported. The 97-item questionnaire was based on the conceptualization of Thomas, Chess, and associates in the New York Longitudinal Study and standardized on 309 children in two pediatric practices. Test-retest reliability (1 month) and alpha reliability are both satisfactory, with median correlations of .81 and .70, respectively, for the nine categories. Preliminary evidence of external validity is presented. The instrument should provide more objective and organized temperament data for research and clinical purposes.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
