ResumoThe present study was concerned with Amsel's theory of frustrative nonreward (I) as it might apply to children. The major implication tested is that the relationship between symbolic (verbal) expectative responses and frustration is similar to the postulated relationship between more peripheral expectative responses (i.e., fractional anticipatory goal responses) and frustration. According to Amsel, the latter relationship is positive, and hence the present prediction was that the former relationship is also positive; i.e., the stronger the symbolic expectative responses of reward, the greater the amount of frustration when that reward is removed.
