M E Lamb

Twenty-one two-year-olds were observed interacting with their parents in a laboratory playroom. Previously reported analyses had found that they displayes no preferencd for interaction with either parent. The present analysis found that there was a high degree of correlation between the sociability of the cild with his mother and his sociability with his father. Possible implications of this finding are discussed.
