Attachment

58
Attachment is vital for infant development, as warm social interactions support growth and well-being. In a classic 1958 study by Harry Harlow, the significance of warmth and comfort in forming attachments was examined. Harlow separated newborn monkeys from their mothers and provided two artificial "mothers": one made of cold wire and the other covered in soft cloth. Despite the wire mother offering food, the infant monkeys preferred the comfort of the cloth mother, demonstrating that...

Psychosexual Stages of Personality: Oral

627
The oral stage is the initial phase of Sigmund Freud's theory of psychosexual development, occurring from birth to approximately 12 to 18 months. During this period, the infant's mouth serves as the primary source of pleasure, with actions such as sucking, chewing, biting, and drinking playing a crucial role in reducing tension. These activities are essential not only for nourishment but also for the infant's psychological and emotional satisfaction.
Weaning, typically occurring...

    Area of Science:

    • Neonatology
    • Developmental Pediatrics
    • Pediatric Feeding Disorders

    Background:

    • Infants with developmental risks often experience feeding problems, potentially leading to chronic feeding disorders.
    • Early identification and understanding of feeding disorder progression are crucial for effective management and intervention.
    • The family feeding environment significantly impacts a child's feeding development.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To characterize problematic feeding symptoms and their trajectories from neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) discharge through 24 months of age.
    • To determine the relationship between infant biological function at discharge and feeding symptom characteristics.
    • To describe the child's feeding environment and its impact on feeding symptoms and outcomes, including growth and neurodevelopment.

    Main Methods:

    • The New Through Two (NewThru2) study is a prospective, longitudinal, mixed-method design following over 200 high-risk infants.
    • Feeding symptoms are assessed via clinical observation, medical records, and parent reports.
    • Biological function, feeding environment, and child outcomes (growth, neurodevelopment) are measured using various methods, including parent interviews.

    Main Results:

    • The study protocol is established for tracking feeding issues in high-risk infants.
    • Data collection methods are defined for assessing feeding symptoms, biological function, and environmental factors.
    • The study aims to link feeding behaviors to growth and developmental outcomes.

    Conclusions:

    • This research will enhance the understanding of pediatric feeding disorders in vulnerable infants.
    • Findings will inform the development of targeted interventions for infants at risk for developmental delays.
    • Improved insights into feeding disorders support critical nutritional needs during sensitive developmental periods.
