Crying represents a powerful signal for human newborns. How parents should respond has been a matter of debate, with some urging prompt responding and others expressing concern about spoiling. Despite the fervor of the debate, few longitudinal observational studies have addressed the question. A new study in this issue by Bilgin and Wolke provides important data about ignoring crying in early infancy and its predictive correlates. The results of their investigation are discussed in the context of attachment and behavioral theories.
哭泣是人类新生儿强有力的信号。父母应该如何回应一直是一个争论的问题，一些人主张及时回应，另一些人则担心会宠坏孩子。尽管争论激烈，但很少有纵向观察研究解决这个问题。Bilgin 和 Wolke 在本期发表的一项新研究提供了关于忽视婴儿早期哭泣及其预测因素的重要数据。他们的研究结果在依恋和行为理论的背景下进行了讨论。
