Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Infants require sensitive caregivers who respond promptly and appropriately to their needs. Studies have shown that infants whose caregivers exhibit sensitivity are better able to recover biologically from stressors. This is because sensitive caregivers provide a secure base for the infants and help regulate their stress response, leading to a better recovery. Abusive or neglectful caregivers can actually worsen infants' stress response and inhibit their ability to recover. Ignoring infants can also lead to adverse outcomes.
