要旨

As a child discovers her autonomy, most mothers must manage and cope with tantrums, the intensity and frequency of which can potentially create a lasting and negative behavioral dynamic [1]. For these reasons, tantrums are important childhood phenomenon that appears to warrant more empirical attention than they have been given to date. Thus the investigators felt the need to conduct a study to assess the effectiveness of planned teaching programme on knowledge regarding temper tantrums among the mothers of toddlers of selected areas in Sangli, Miraj & Kupwad Corporation area in India. The result seldom documented showed that mothers after receiving planned teaching regarding temper tantrums had higher mean knowledge scores in post-test (15.98) than in pretest (11.48); there was statistically highly significant increase in post-test score. The researcher applied Pearson’s Chi Square test for finding association but there was no association between demographical variables such as age, education, religion, and type of family and pre-test knowledge score. Keywords: temper tantrums, toddlers
