Mother and father dyads from 34 two-parent Navajo (Diné) Indian families with a second- or third-grade ch…

Infants of “depressed” mothers interact better with their nondepressed fathers
To determine whether infants of “depressed” mothers interact better with their nondepressed fathers, twenty-six 3- to 6-month-old infants were videotaped during face-to-face interactions with their parents. The “depressed” mother group consisted of twelve 3- to 6-month-old infants and their “depressed” mothers and nondepressed fathers.
