Babies who __________ are less prone to distress.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Babies who engage in self-soothing are less prone to distress because they have learned to regulate their own emotions and are less reliant on their caregiver for comfort. Babies who depend on caregiver-soothing may become more distressed when they are separated from their caregiver or when their caregiver is unable to provide comfort. Babies who focus intently on unpleasant events may become more upset or distressed, while the ability to crawl or walk is not directly related to emotional regulation.
