Raising An Emotionally Intelligent Child - Plot & Excerpts
WAS conceived in 1984 when John Gottman was on leave, visiting Robert Levenson in Paul Ekman’s laboratory in San Francisco. The research could not have progressed without the support of Robert Levenson, who built Gottman’s first psychophysiology laboratory. This was the first study we did in that lab. The research has also received a great deal of support from Dr. Michael Guralnick, director of the Center for Human Developmental Disabilities (CHDD), and CHDD’s core facilities, particularly the Instrument Development Laboratory at the University of Washington. The research was supported by National Institute of Mental Health research grants MH42484, titled “Marital discord, parenting, and child emotional development,” MH35997, titled “Friendship formation among children,” an NIMH Merit Award to extend research in time, and Research Scientist Award K2MH00257 awarded to John Gottman. Gottman wishes to acknowledge the great love, help, and intellectual companionship of his wife, Julie Schwartz Gottman, who coleads parent training groups at their Seattle Marital and Family Institute and who has been a true partner in parenting.
