_____ predicts positive neurodevelopmental outcomes in preterm babies.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Synchrony in parent-infant interactions has been shown to improve neurodevelopmental outcomes in preterm babies. It involves the mother and baby being in tune with each other's communication, such as the mother responding appropriately to the baby's cues and expressions. Low intensity parent-infant interactions and spending a long time in an isolette can have negative effects on development, while highly stimulating play may overstimulate the baby and be counterproductive.
