Effectiveness Trial of Family Nurture Intervention as a Standard of Care in the Nicu: Enhanced Brain Activity in Preterm Infants
Objective: This study sought to evaluate the effectiveness of Family Nurture Intervention (FNI) in the NICU on enhancing early brain activity of preterm infants. This unit‐wide implementation of FNI is referred to as Family Nurture Care (FNC). Methods: This was a single‐center prospective phased effectiveness study conducted in two sequential phases in the NICU (NCT03267043). In Phase I, all mother–infant dyads received the baseline standard care…
Development and validation of the Mother's Socioemotional Support Circle (MSSC): A self-evaluation social support tool to guide social support efforts for preterm mothers in the Nicu
Emotional support from others plays a major role in a mother's ability to connect emotionally with her infant, particularly in the stressful context of preterm birth. Here, we document the development and validation of a novel assessment tool, the Mother's Socioemotional Support Circle (MSSC). The MSSC is a self-report instrument designed to assess the perceived availability and helpfulness of the mother's socioemotional support network. First re…

Effects of Family Nurture Intervention in the Nicu on Theory of Mind Abilities in Children Born Very Preterm: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Preterm infants are at risk for socioemotional deficits, neurodevelopmental disorders, and potentially theory of mind (ToM) deficits. Preterm infants enrolled in a randomized controlled trial in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) received Standard Care (SC) or Family Nurture Intervention (FNI). Children (N = 72; median age 61.8 ± 2.6 months; FNI: 35 (55%), SC:2 9 (45%)) completed a ToM task, of whom 64 (54% male; born to White (43.8%), Black…
The practical utility of the Welch Emotional Connection Screen for rating parent–infant relational health
Emotional Connection (EC) measured by the Welch Emotional Connection Screen (WECS) was related to the Parent–Infant Interaction Rating System (PIIRS), a 5‐point adaptation of the rating system developed for the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development (e.g., NICHD Early Child Care Research Network, 1999, Developmental Psychology , 35, 1399). Parent–infant dyads ( n = 49 mothers; 43 f…
Family nurture intervention for preterm infants facilitates positive mother–infant face-to-face engagement at 4 months
Although preterm infants are at risk for social deficits, interventions to improve mother-infant interaction in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) are not part of standard care (SC). Study participants were a subset from a randomized controlled trial of a new intervention for premature infants, the Family Nurture Intervention (FNI), designed to help mothers and infants establish an emotional connection. At infants' 4 months corrected age, mo…
The Viking Dig: The Excavations at York
Mitcham Grave 205 and the Chronology of Applied Brooches with Floriate Cross Decoration
Entries in the London Museum Catalogue indicate that the association of a carinated pedestal based bowl with a pair of applied brooches and a bronze fragment in Mitcham (Surrey) Grave 205 almost certainly represents a valid closed find. The continental antecedents of the complete applied brooch from this grave may be dated to the first quarter of the fifth century. The English brooches with this floriate cross design show an insular development w…
