Abstract

We documented bidirectional effects in the regulation of maternal intrusion and infant behavior during face-to-face play at 12 months. A maternal intrusion behavior, into-the-face, disturbed shared attention, increased infant distress, decreased infant gazing away. Reciprocally, infant distress and gazing away increased mother into-the-face. Mother into-the-face disturbs infant experiences of recognition.
