What is one type of caregiver infant interactions
Reprocity
View source
What is
reprocity
?
The
interactions
between caregiver and infants where each spend to the other and elicit a response from them.
View source
What are alert phases
Where an infant signals that they are ready for interaction. As time goes on they tend to become more frequent and involve close attention to each others verbal signs and facial expressions.
View source
What is research around alert phases
Feldman
and Eidelman found that
mothers
pick up on and respond
2/3
of the time
HOWEVER, varies according to skill and external factors
View source
What is active involvement
Babies as well as caregivers take active role where both initiate interactions + take turns.
Brazelton describes this as a dance where each partner responds to the other's moves
View source
What is another type of care/giver infant interactions?
Interactional synchrony
View source
What is interactional synchrony?
When two people interact, they mirror each other, including facial expressions and movements.
View source
When does interactional synchrony begin?
As young as 2 weeks old
View source
Why is interactional synchrony important?
Isabella et al: observed degrees of synchrony and found high levels are associated with better quality mother-baby attachment
View source
:) filmed observations in lab
Other activity that may distract can be controlled
Also can be analysed later
= unlikely will miss key behaviours
= can have interrater reliability of observations
Babies don't know being observed so behaviour wont change
TMT: data has good reliability and validity
View source
:( difficult to observe and interpret baby behavior
babies = lack coordination.
Movements observed = small hand movements or subtle changes in expression
Difficult to be sure if smiling or just passing wind.
Cannot know is movement is random or triggered by caregiver.
TMT: certain behaviours may not have special meanings
View source
:/ important to weigh practical value with ethics
Although research into early caregiver infant interaction has practical application in parenting skills training.
EG research found: 10 min Parent child therapy improved interactional synchrony in 20 low income mothers
ON OTHER HAND,
Research is socially sensitive = used to argue when mother returns to work too soon it impacts baby's development
TMT: ethics need to be considered when releasing the research
