Titre : Emergent patterns of risk for psychopathology: The influence of infant avoidance and maternal caregiving on trajectories of social reticence Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Kathryn A. DEGNAN, Auteur ; Amie Ashley HANE, Auteur ; Heather A. HENDERSON, Auteur ; Olga L. WALKER, Auteur ; Melissa M. GHERA, Auteur ; Nathan A. FOX, Auteur Année de publication : 2015 Article en page(s) : p.1163-1178 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The current study investigated the influential role of infant avoidance on links between maternal caregiving behavior and trajectories at risk for psychopathology. A sample of 153 children, selected for temperamental reactivity to novelty, was followed from infancy through early childhood. At 9 months, infant avoidance of fear-eliciting stimuli in the laboratory and maternal sensitivity at home were assessed. At 36 months, maternal gentle discipline was assessed at home. Children were repeatedly observed in the lab with an unfamiliar peer across early childhood. A latent class growth analysis yielded three longitudinal risk trajectories of social reticence behavior: a high-stable trajectory, a high-decreasing trajectory, and a low-increasing trajectory. For infants displaying greater avoidance, 9-month maternal sensitivity and 36-month maternal gentle discipline were both positively associated with membership in the high-stable social reticence trajectory, compared to the high-decreasing social reticence trajectory. For infants displaying lower avoidance, maternal sensitivity was positively associated with membership in the high-decreasing social reticence trajectory, compared to the low-increasing trajectory. Maternal sensitivity was positively associated with the high-stable social reticence trajectory when maternal gentle discipline was lower. These results illustrate the complex interplay of infant and maternal behavior in early childhood trajectories at risk for emerging psychopathology.

GHERA, Auteur ; Donald GUTHRIE, Auteur ; Nathan A. FOX, Auteur ; Anna T. SMYKE, Auteur ; Peter J. MARSHALL, Auteur ; Charles H. ZEANAH, Auteur ; Charles A. III NELSON, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.246-263 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Institutionalization intervention emotion-expression attention-positive-affect Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: We examined the effects of a foster care intervention on attention and emotion expression in socially deprived children in Romanian institutions.
Methods: Institutionalized children were randomized to enter foster care or to remain under institutional care. Subsequently, the institutionalized and foster care groups, along with a community-based comparison group, were evaluated on emotion tasks at 30 and 42 months of age. Behaviors reflecting positive and negative affect and attention were coded from videotapes. Results: Data indicated that at both age points, children who received the foster care intervention showed higher levels of attention and positive affect compared to children who remained institutionalized. Compared to the community sample, children in the foster care intervention showed higher levels of attention to the emotion-eliciting tasks at 42 months of age.
Conclusions: The results of this randomized trial demonstrate the impact of a family-based intervention on the development of attention and positive affect.En ligne : http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1469-7610.2008.01954.x Permalink : https://www.cra-rhone-alpes.org/cid/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=718
