Abstract
RESEARCH in personality development during the past three years was concentrated on a more manageable number of variables. Areas of particular concentration were (a) the motive-related responses of aggression, dependence, achievement, and sex-role identification and (b) the effects of parental control, affection, and personality on the development of the child's needs and patterns of social interaction. The influence of the peer group was also given consideration. This chapter will begin with a consideration of the research in the long-term stability of selected behaviors and will continue with a discussion of the influence of parents and peers on the behavior of the child and the adolescent.
