Early interaction: consequences for social and mental development at three years

R Bakeman, J V Brown

    Child Development
    |June 1, 1980
    PubMed
    Summary

    Early mother-infant interactions, whether with preterm or full-term babies, did not predict later social or cognitive skills. However, maternal responsiveness at 20 months did positively impact 3-year-old outcomes.

    Area of Science:

    • Developmental Psychology
    • Neonatal Studies
    • Child Development

    Background:

    • Early mother-infant interaction patterns differ between preterm and full-term infants.
    • Previous research suggests early interactions significantly influence long-term child development.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To compare early feeding interaction between mothers and preterm vs. full-term infants.
    • To determine if early interaction predicts cognitive and social abilities at age 3.
    • To investigate the impact of maternal responsiveness on child development.

    Main Methods:

    • Comparative analysis of feeding interactions in low-income mother-infant dyads (preterm vs. full-term).
    • Assessment of cognitive (Stanford-Binet) and social abilities (competence, participation) at age 3.

  • Evaluation of maternal emotional and verbal responsiveness during a home visit at 20 months.

    • Main Results:

    • Early interaction differences between preterm and full-term infants were observed but did not predict 3-year outcomes.
    • Birth status predicted cognitive ability, with preterm infants scoring lower.
    • Maternal responsiveness at 20 months positively correlated with higher social and cognitive abilities at age 3.

    Conclusions:

    • Infant birth status, not early interaction patterns, predicted cognitive outcomes at age 3.
    • Maternal emotional and verbal responsiveness is a key factor in fostering later social and cognitive development.
    • Infants appear buffered against long-term negative effects of early interaction variations.
