Temperamental resistance to control increases the association between sleep problems and externalizing behavior development
Article Abstract:
The moderating effects of temperamental resistance to control on the link between development of sleep problems and development of externalizing behaviors over a 5-year period are studied. Results reveal that a cross-domain latent growth curve model showed that sleep problem trajectories were positively associated with externalizing behavior trajectories only for children high in resistance to control.
