Multimodal sex-related differences in infant and in infant-directed maternal behaviors during months three through twelve of development
Using the concepts of sensory and affective experience, this work relates the concepts of socialization and cognitive development to the embodiment of gender in the human infant. Evidence obtained from biweekly observations from 30 children and their mothers observed from age 3 months to age 12 months revealed measurable sex-related differences in how mothers handle and touch their infants. This work offers novel approaches to visualizing combina…
Social Processes Underlying Acculturation: A Study of Drinking Behavior among Immigrant Latinos in the Northeast United States
STUDY GOALS: To identify social processes that underlie the relationship of acculturation and heavy drinking behavior among Latinos who have immigrated to the Northeast United States of America (USA). METHOD: Community-based recruitment strategies were used to identify 36 Latinos who reported heavy drinking. Participants were 48% female, 23 to 56 years of age, and were from South or Central America (39%) and the Caribbean (24%). Six focus groups …
Colic for developmentalists
Our understanding of the etiology, pathophysiology, sequelae, incidence, and management of colic is hampered by the absence of a standard definition and accepted clinical criteria for colic. In this paper we distinguish colic from excessive crying and offer a set of criteria that can be used in clinical practice to determine if an infant has colic or excessive crying. We also discuss differences between colic and excessive crying from a developme…
Perception of infant cries in adolescent and adult mothers
Behavioral Inhibition to the Unfamiliar

A group of 43 children classified as either behaviorally inhibited or uninhibited at 21 months were observed at 4 years of age in situations designed to evaluate behavior with an unfamiliar peer, heart rate and heart rate variability to cognitively challenging tasks, relu…
