In an attempt to directly investigate later consequences of the early mother-infant relationship, several measures of social-emotional and cognitive-motivational development at 12 months of age were correlated with two measures of preschool adjustment for 26 children. Results indicated that both of our measures of early social functioning were related to more optimal adjustment in a peer-setting at three-and-a-half years of age. Taken together, the results of the study provide empirical support for the widely held, but seldom tested, hypothesis that the quality of the early mother-infant tie has important consequences for the child's subsequent development in most areas.
为了直接探究早期母婴关系的后续影响，对26名儿童12个月大时的社会情感和认知动机发展的几项指标与学前适应的两项指标进行了相关性分析。结果表明，我们所采用的早期社会功能的两项指标均与三岁半时在同伴环境中的更优适应情况相关。总体而言，该研究结果为一个广泛认可但很少得到验证的假设提供了实证支持，即早期母婴关系的质量对儿童在大多数领域的后续发展具有重要影响。
