,
synchronized

When does interactional synchrony begin and why is it Important for attachment?
Meltzoff
and
Moore
(1977): Identified
interactional
synchrony
in
two-week-old
infants.
-
adults
displayed
facial
expressions
,
babies'
responses
filmed
and
observed.
-
babies
mirrored
adults'
expressions
more
than
chance
(
significant
association).
:
Higher
synchrony
linked to
better
mother-baby
attachment in
30
observed
caregiver-infant
pairs.

Research into interactional synchrony aim + procedure (
Meltzoff
and
Moore
1977)
Aim
: To
investigate
reciprocity
between
infants
and their
caregivers.
Procedure:
babies
are
exposed
to
one
of
three
facial
expressions
or
one
of
three
distinctive
gestures
babies
responses
were
filmed
and
labelled
by
independent
observers
responses
filmed
to
increase
reliability

Meltzoff
and
Moore
findings + conclusion
Findings
: The
results
indicated
that
babies
aged
12
to
27
days
old could
imitate
both
facial
expressions
and
manual
gestures.
Conclusions
:
Meltzoff
and
Moore
concluded that the
ability
to
imitate
serves
as an
important
building
block
for later
social
and
cognitive
development.
