Smiling and Fussing in Seven-Month-Old Preterm and Full-Term Black Infants in the Still-Face Situation.
Segal, Laura B.; And Others
Child Development, v66 n6 p1829-43 Dec 1995
Investigated emotional responses to the still-face paradigm in preterm and full-term black infants. Preterm infants spent less time than full-term infants displaying big smiles in one episode, and showed a less pronounced decrease in big smiles in a second episode. Results confirm the robustness of the still-face paradigm. (HTH)
