Intraindividual Variability in Infant Behavior.
de Weerth, Carolina; Hoijtink, Herbert; van Geert, Paul
Developmental Psychology, v35 n4 p1102-12 Jul 1999
Used weekly-obtained longitudinal observational data of infant crying, fretting/fussing, and smiling and the time spent in physical contact with mother to examine behavioral variability over a 15-month period. Found evidence of an important intraindividual variability between newborn and 5 months, and 5 and 10 months, but not between 10 and 15 months. (Author/KB)
