Genetic susceptibility to the environment moderates the impact of childhood exp...
Barrantes-Vidal, Neus; Torrecilla, Pilar; Mas-Bermejo, Patricia; Papiol, Sergi; Bakermans-Kranenburg, Marian J.; Kwapil, Thomas R.; Rosa, AraceliBackground and Hypothesis: Consistent with diathesisstress models, psychosis research has focused on genetic moderation of adverse environmental exposures. In contrast, the Differential Susceptibility (DS) model suggests that the same genetic variants that increase risk-inducing effects of adverse experiences also enhance beneficial effects from positive experiences. This study examined whether individuals with...
Genetic differences in reactivity to the environment impact psychotic-like and ...

Secure base script knowledge and video-feedback intervention to promote positiv...
Witte, Annemieke M.; Runze, Jana; van IJzendoorn, Marinus H.; Bakermans-Kranenburg, Marian J.This preregistered randomized controlled study investigated the effects of Video-Feedback Intervention to promote Positive Parenting and Sensitive Discipline (VIPP-SD) on parents’ secure base script knowledge (SBSK). Furthermore, we examined whether effects of VIPP-SD on sensitive caregiving and sensitive discipline behavior and parents’ attitudes toward these behaviors were moderated by SBSK at baseline. Famil...
Impact of parity and salivary hormonal levels on motivation toward infant emoti...
Sinisalo, Hanneli; Hahn, Amanda C.; Jones, Benedict C.; Bakermans-Kranenburg, Marian J.; Peltola, Mikko J.Infant faces have been shown to be particularly motivating stimuli for women. No studies, however, have compared mothers and nonmothers in whether parity modulates approach motivation toward emotional infant faces. We studied 54 Finnish first-time mothers and 42 nonmothers in a pay-per-view key-press task wheretheparticipants wereshown20infantfaceswithsmilingandcryingexpressions.Participantswere able to adjust ...
Neural processing of cry sounds in the transition to fatherhood: Effects of a p...
Thijssen, Sandra; Alyousefi-van Dijk, Kim; De Waal, Noor; Van IJzendoorn, Marinus; Bakermans-Kranenburg, Marian J.This study examined whether neural processing of infant cry sounds changes across the transition to fatherhood (i.e., from the prenatal to postnatal period), and examined whether an interaction-based prenatal intervention modulated these changes. Furthermore, we explored whether postnatal activation in brain regions showing transition or intervention effects was associated with sensitive care and involvement. I...
Effects of a soft baby carrier on fathers’ behavior and hormones: A randomized ...
Verhees, Martine W. F. T.; Lotz, Anna M.; de Moor, Marleen H. M.; van IJzendoorn, Marinus H.; Fidder, Annabeth A. E. J.; Buisman, Renate S. M.Increased father–infant physical contact may promote early paternal caregiving. This randomized controlled trial, preregistered on https://osf.io/qwe3a , tested the effects of a soft baby carrier intervention on fathers’ parenting behavior and hormonal levels. Eighty first-time fathers of 2- to 4-month-old infants were randomly assigned to a baby carrier intervention group (n = 41 fathers) or a control group re...
Sensitive responsiveness in expectant and new fathers
Bakermans-Kranenburg, Marian J.; Van IJzendoorn, MarinusFathers have an increasingly important role in the family and contribute through their sensitive responsiveness to positive child development. Research on parenting more often included fathers as caregivers in the past two decades. We present a neurobiological model of sensitive responsive parenting with a role for fathers’ hormonal levels and neural connectivity and processing of infant signals. We tested this...
Attachment goes to court: child protection and custody issues
Forslund, Tommie; Granqvist, Pehr; Van IJzendoorn, Marinus; Sagi-Schwartz, Avi; Glaser, Danya; Steele, Miriam; Hammarlund, Mårten; Schuengel, CarloAttachment theory and research are drawn upon in many applied settings, including family courts, but misunderstandings are widespread and sometimes result in misapplications. The aim of this consensus statement is, therefore, to enhance understanding, counter misinformation, and steer family-court utilisation of attachment theory in a supportive, evidence-based direction, especially with regard to child protect...
