Early Face-to-Face Interaction and Its Relation to Later Infant-Mother Attachment
Blehar, Mary C.; And Others
Child Development, 48, 1, 182-194, Mar 77
Face-to-face interaction between 26 infants and their mothers and a relatively unfamiliar figure was observed longitudinally in the home environment when the infants were between 6 and 15 weeks of age. Normative findings indicated that infants became more responsive over this time period, whereas maternal behavior did not change. (Author/JMB)
