Abstract
Early parenting shapes the development of infant stress regulation. This study investigated associations between self-reported parenting behaviors and infant negative engagement during, reactivity to, and recovery from the Still-Face Paradigm (n=80 mother-infant dyads). Supportive and proactive parenting was associated with infant negative engagement and negative emotional reactivity to Still-Face.
