Alessandri, Steven M.; And Others
Developmental Psychology, v29 n6 p989-97 Nov 1993
Examined the instrumental responses and facial expressions during learning and extinction in a group of 36 cocaine-exposed infants ages 4 to 8 months and an equal number of control subjects. Findings indicated that cocaine-exposed infants expressed less interest and joy during learning and less anger and sadness during extinction than infants who were not exposed to cocaine. (MDM)
