Objectives To study the correlation between social emotion and temperament in infants and toddlers. Me-thods The Brief Infant-Toddler Social and Emotional Assessment (BITSEA) and Toddler Temperament Questionnaire (TTQ) were used to evaluate the social emotional problems and temperament of 657 infants and toddlers 1 to 3 years old. Results The temperament dimensions were correlated with behavior and competence factors. The infants and toddlers in dififcult type group had more behavior problems or deifcits/delays in competence than those in easy type group (χ2=26.49, 10.48, P<0.01). Conclu-sions Infants and toddlers with negative temperament traits have more behavior problems and weaker social emotional compe-tences. The temperament should be considered in dealing with emotional problems.%目的探讨婴幼儿社会性情绪发展和气质特点之间的联系。方法采用《婴幼儿社会性和情绪评估简表》(BITSEA)和《幼儿气质问卷》(TTQ)对657名1~3岁婴幼儿进行社会性情绪和气质特点评估。结果婴幼儿气质的各维度与各行为因子、能力之间存在一定相关性。在难养型气质类型的婴幼儿中,可能发生行为问题和能力缺乏/延迟的婴幼儿多于易养型的婴幼儿,差异具有统计学意义(χ2=26.49、10.48,P<0.01)。结论气质倾向消极的婴幼儿容易发生行为问题且社会情绪能力较弱,在预防和干预情绪问题时需考虑气质因素。
