Abstract

Twenty hyperactive children and 21 controls, studied in a research nursery at age four, were followed up at six-and-a-half. Hyperactives were still reported to have more behavior problems. Those rated extremely active in the nursery requested more feedback and made more comments in interactions with their mothers, and also made more immature moral judgments; children rated only moderately active did not differ from controls on these measures.
