Abstract:

Temperamental stability is influenced by both biological and environmental factors, as well as cultural factors in some cases. Temperament refers to our inborn personality traits, which are genetic in nature. The present study was conducted in four districts namely; Hisar Fatehabad, Rohtak and Jind of Haryana state with the purpose of availability of maximum numbers of twins in the required age group. A sample of 296 pairs of twins in the age group for the study was chosen. Temperament was taken as dependent variable and siblings were taken as independent variable. The Malhotra Temperament Schedule (MTS) developed by Malhotra and Malhotra (1988) was used to assess child’s temperament. Result revealed that Number of siblings was significantly associated with distractibility (2=6.23*) of twins, but nonsignificantly with sociability (2=2.29), emotionality (2=3.46), energy (2=1.55), rhythmicity (2=0.16) and total temperament (2=0.69).
