This study investigated infant and caregiving-environment variables associated with continuity and discontinuity in infant negative emotionality between the newborn period and 5 months of age. Comparisons were made between groups of infants who evidenced similar levels of crying as neonates but differed by 5 months of age. For initially high-crying infants, mother personality traits, marital quality, and infant variables measured neonatally discriminated stable from changing infants. Ratings of mother sensitivity and infant responsiveness made at 5 months of age also related to continuity and discontinuity in negative emotionality over the first 5 months.
本研究调查了与新生儿期至5个月大婴儿负面情绪的连续性和非连续性相关的婴儿及照料环境变量。对新生儿期哭泣水平相似但5个月大时存在差异的婴儿组进行了比较。对于最初高哭泣的婴儿，母亲的人格特质、婚姻质量以及新生儿期测量的婴儿变量区分了情绪稳定和变化的婴儿。5个月大时母亲敏感性和婴儿反应性的评分也与前5个月负面情绪的连续性和非连续性相关。
