Abstract

SYNOPSIS This commentary explores potential mechanisms underlying the links between mothers’ attachment anxiety and levels of salivary alpha amylase in response to infant crying across levels of spouse support. The commentary argues that the current design cannot disentangle different explanations for the effects – whether they reflect general stress reactivity patterns or patterns occurring specifically in response to infant distress – and offers suggestions for ways in which to explore putative explanations in future studies. Understanding mechanisms is essential to identify risk factors for insensitive parenting.

过去即现在:依恋焦虑高的母亲对婴儿哭闹的反应

这篇评论探讨了母亲依恋焦虑和唾液α淀粉酶水平之间联系的潜在机制，这是对配偶支持水平下婴儿哭泣的反应。这篇评论认为，目前的设计无法区分对这些影响的不同解释——它们是否反映了一般的应激反应模式，还是对婴儿痛苦的特殊反应模式——并为未来研究中探索推定解释的方法提供了建议。了解机制对于确定不敏感养育的风险因素至关重要。

期刊介绍： Parenting: Science and Practice strives to promote the exchange of empirical findings, theoretical perspectives, and methodological approaches from all disciplines that help to define and advance theory, research, and practice in parenting, caregiving, and childrearing broadly construed. "Parenting" is interpreted to include biological parents and grandparents, adoptive parents, nonparental caregivers, and others, including infrahuman parents. Articles on parenting itself, antecedents of parenting, parenting effects on parents and on children, the multiple contexts of parenting, and parenting interventions and education are all welcome. The journal brings parenting to science and science to parenting.
