It’s You and Me: Infants’ cross-modal communicative signals and mother-infant i...
Fuertes, Marina; Rita Almeida; Martelo Ribeiro, Inês; Miguel Barbosa; Beeghly, MarjorieInfant regulatory behavior develops since birth and impacts their early social interactions. Infants differ in the relative coherence and incoherence of their cross-modal communicative signals during en-face infant-caregiver interactions. We expand this research by evaluating whether different infant regulatory patterns observed during the Face-to-Face Still-Face (FFSF) at 3 months are associated with the coher...
Predicting attachment in Portuguese infants born very or extremely preterm: Und...
Antunes, Sandra; Alves, Maria João; Martelo, Inês; Beeghly, Marjorie; Barros, Luísa; Fuertes, MarinaA growing body of research shows that early attachment relationships are foundational for children’s later developmental and psychosocial outcomes.However, findings are mixed regarding whether preterm birth predicts later attachment, but insecurity is generally more prevalent among infants at higher medical and/or social/familial risk. This longitudinal study aimed to identify specific relational, familial/demo...
A self‐comfort oriented pattern of regulatory behavior and avoidant attachment ...
Fuertes, Marina; L. Gonçalves, Joana; Barbosa, Miguel; Almeida, Rita; Lopes‐dos‐Santos, Pedro; Beeghly, MarjorieInfants born preterm (<37 gestational weeks, GW) are at increased risk for regulatory difficulties and insecure attachment. However, the association between infants' regulatory behavior patterns and their later attachment organization is understudied in the preterm population. We addressed this gap by utilizing a Portuguese sample of 202 mother-infant dyads. Specifically, we compared the regulatory behavior pat...

Fuertes, Marina; Ribeiro, Camila; Barbosa, Miguel; Gonçalves, Joana; Teodoro, Ana Teresa; Almeida, Rita; Beeghly, Marjorie; Lopes dos Santos, PedroThree infant regulatory behavior patterns have been identified during the Face-to-Face Still- Face paradigm (FFSF) in prior research samples: a Social-Positive Oriented pattern (i.e., infants exhibit predominantly positive social engagement), a Distressed-Inconsolable pattern (i.e., infants display conspicuous negative affect that persists or increases across FFSF episodes), and a Self-Comfort Oriented pattern ...

Emerging patterns of infant regulatory behavior in the Still-Face paradigm at 3...
Barbosa, Miguel; Beeghly, Marjorie; Moreira, João; Tronick, Ed; Fuertes, MarinaPrior research described three stable patterns of organized behavior employed by infants to manage stressful interactive situations with their mothers in the Face-to-Face Still-Face paradigm (FFSF) at 3 and 9 months postpartum. The current longitudinal study expands this research by examining the extent to which these patterns predict infants' later attachment quality. For that purpose, 108 full-term infants a...
Predicting Patterns of Regulatory Behavior in the Still‐Face Paradigm at 3 Months
Barbosa, Miguel; Beeghly, Marjorie; Gonçalves, Joana L.; Moreira, João; Tronick, Edward; Fuertes, MarinaThe current study addressed two aims: (1) to describe different patterns of infant regulatory behavior during the Face-to-Face Still-Face (FFSF) paradigm at 3 months of age and (2) to identify specific, independent predictors of these patterns from an a priori set of demographic, infant (e.g., temperament), and maternal (e.g., sensitivity) variables. Analyses were based on data collected for 121 mother–infant d...
Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale (NBAS): Confirmatory factor analysis of th...
Barbosa, Miguel; Moreira, João; Tronick, Edward; Beeghly, Marjorie; Fuertes, MarinaThe neonatal behavioral assessment scale (NBAS) is a widely used in the neurobehavioral assessment of neonates in clinical practice and research. Lester's data reduction system for the NBAS items is the most often used in research, but the few factor analytic studies carried out with it leave gaps in its validation. The current study aimed to test and compare (a) the factorial structure of the Lester's data red...
Robust stability and physiological correlates of infants’ patterns of regulator...
Barbosa, Miguel; Beeghly, Marjorie; Moreira, João; Tronick, Edward; Fuertes, MarinaThis study examined the stability of three patterns of infant regulatory behavior identified in the face-to-face still-face (FFSF) paradigm at 3 and 9 months—social-positive oriented, distressed-inconsolable, and self-comfort oriented—and whether variations in infants’ heart-rate were correlated with them. Although some studies have examined the stability of discrete infant behaviors, none have investigated the...
