Abstract
Lewis and Michalson's (l983a) theory of emotional development, and their related measurement technique for assessing emotional states of infants and young children, need independent validation, particularly for applied usage. Twenty-eight toddlers (mean age, 31 months) were observed in a seminaturalistic setting. Emotional displays and Lewis and Michalson (LM) scores were coded independently. Some individual cross-contextual stability was found for LM scores, which also varied in mean level across these different contexts. Regarding concurrent validity, microanalytically coded emotional displays were related to LM scores.
