Carried out by researchers at the University of Maryland, the Catholic University of America and the National Institutes of Mental Health, the new study looked at 165 babies when they were 14 months of age to assess a specific type of temperament among the babies, called behavioral inhibition . The findings, published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, showed that the babies who showed BI tended to have a more reserved personality at age 26. They also reported having fewer romantic relationships in the previous ten years, and lower social functioning with friends and family. However, BI was not linked with the participants' education and employment outcomes.
