Feiring, Candice; And Others
Developmental Psychology, v23 n3 p400-05 May 1987
Mothers from inner-city, poor families with high-risk infants were interviewed when their infants were three months of age concerning sources of support (e.g., fathers, relatives, friends) and types of support received (e.g., goods, services, advice, financial support). Observations of the mother-infant interaction in a free-play setting were also conducted.(Author/BN)
