Classical definitions the disorder show the child being willing but unable to express himself verbally. Together with the usually expressed reasons such as shyness or fear of negative evaluation, it seems that a dimension of inconsistent parenting is contributing to the anxiety felt by the child. This inconsistency contributes to the possible failure of a child to interact with the environment as he doesn't know what kind of reinforcement he will receive from it and, consequently, feels anxious about this uncertainty. 2011-08-01T07:00:00Z text https://animorepository.dlsu.edu.ph/faculty_research/7307 Faculty Research Work Animo Repository Selective mutism Parent and child Psychology |
