The Induced Affect Response: 10-Week-Old Infants' Responses to Three Emotion Expressions.
Haviland, Jeannette M.; Lelwica, Mary
Developmental Psychology, v23 n1 p97-104 Jan 1987
When mothers of 12 infants 10 weeks of age displayed noncontingent, practiced facial and vocal expressions of joy, anger, and sadness, infants responded differently to each expression. Infants' matching responses to maternal affects were only part of complex but predictable behavioral patterns that indicate meaningful affect states and possibly self-regulation. (Author/RH)
