The attitude scale given to three groups of mothers and 50 child-guidance authorities consisted of 60 items of adult behavior, each of which could be rated from 1 to 10, according to how seriously or unfavorably the rater believed the behavior to affect the child. The parents and child-guidance specialists were fairly well agreed on their ratings of approximately two-thirds of the items. Both agreed that the most undesirable forms of adult behavior are those which tend to discourage the child and to undermine his feeling of security and self-confidence. The guidance specialists regarded as relatively more harmful those forms of activity that tend to cause the child to lose confidence in human beings. Parents regarded as relatively more harmful those forms of parental activity which allow the child freedom from moral repression. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)
