Description |
Evidence is accumulating that the first six months of life is foundational for establishing trajectories of self-regulation that bear directly on infant and parent socio-emotional health.Regulatory problems such as sleep-wake challenges, feeding issues, and excessive crying during the first half six months have been predictive of behavioral problems (e.g., internalizing/externalizing behaviors) during childhood (Hemmi et al., 2011), as well as parental and overall family distress. Meta-analyses indicate a dose-response between infant regulatory problems and the ability to self-regulate at later points in development, with negative ramifications for both infant and parent (Asmussen et al., 2023). If you can, join us for lunch & conversation from 11:30 a.m.-12 p.m. |
