Temper tantrums were found to be most common at 3-5 years (75.3%), less common at 6-8 years (20.8%), and least common at 9-12 years (3.9%). Children aged 3-5 years were more likely to be of a lower social class (p &lt; 0.01), whereas in other age groups (6-8 years and 9-12 years) children were more likely to be of an upper social class. Boys dominated the study significantly: the ratio of boys to girls was 3.1:1. Boys having temper tantrums were more likely to be of an upper social class (p &lt; 0.001) compared with girls, who tended to be of a lower social class (p &lt; .01).<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Children showed a higher incidence of history of postnatal trauma and seizure disorder compared with the control group (p &lt; 0.05). Parental overprotection and marital discord were found to be stress factors in a significantly higher number of boys than girls (p &lt; 0.01); parental negligence was a significant stress factor for girls (p &lt; 0.01). Associated behavioral problems, such as thumb sucking, enuresis, tics, head banging, sleep disturbances, and hyperkinesis were found to be significantly higher among children with tantrums.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/000992289002900603","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,11,26]],"date-time":"2007-11-26T17:50:16Z","timestamp":1196099416000},"page":"311-315","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":42,"title":["Prevalence and Etiology"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"29","author":[{"given":"M.S.","family":"Bhatia","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Psychiatry and Pediatrics, Lady Hardinge Medical College and associated Kalawati Saran Children's and Shrimati Sucheta Kriplani Hospitals, New Delhi-110001, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"N.K.","family":"Dhar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Psychiatry and Pediatrics, Lady Hardinge Medical College and associated Kalawati Saran Children's and Shrimati Sucheta Kriplani Hospitals, New Delhi-110001, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"P.K.","family":"Singhal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Psychiatry and Pediatrics, Lady Hardinge Medical College and associated Kalawati Saran Children's and Shrimati Sucheta Kriplani Hospitals, New Delhi-110001, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"V.R.","family":"Nigam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Psychiatry and Pediatrics, Lady Hardinge Medical College and associated Kalawati Saran Children's and Shrimati Sucheta Kriplani Hospitals, New Delhi-110001, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"S.C.","family":"Malik","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Psychiatry and Pediatrics, Lady Hardinge Medical College and associated Kalawati Saran Children's and Shrimati Sucheta Kriplani Hospitals, New Delhi-110001, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"D.N.","family":"Mullick","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Psychiatry and Pediatrics, Lady Hardinge Medical College and associated Kalawati Saran Children's and Shrimati Sucheta Kriplani Hospitals, New Delhi-110001, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1990,6,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1939-0025.1945.tb04937.x"},{"key":"atypb2","volume-title":"The international statistical classification of diseases, injuries and causes of death","author":"World Health Organization.","year":"1978"},{"key":"atypb3","unstructured":"The Committee of Nomenclature and Statistics.
