Emotion regulation of ll-month-old American and Japanese infants was compared. Infants ' responses to several emotion eliciting conditions were observed in the laboratories. Results showed that Japanese infants behaved less autonomously and were more dependent on their mothers than the American infants, especially during and after stressful condi-tions. These differences were interpreted in relation with differences in early emotional socialization, parental beliefs and childrearing goals in Japanese and American societies. Key Words: emotion regulation, lab observation, emotional socialization, paren-tal beliefs, cross cultural comparison

Emotional communication regulates the behaviors of social partners. Research on individuals' responding to others' emotions typically compares responses to a single negative emotion compared with responses to a neutral or positive emotion. Furthermore, coding of such responses routinely measure surface level features of the behavior (e.g., approach vs. avoidance) rather than its underlying function (e.g., the goal of the approach or avoidant behavior). This investigation examined infants' responding to others' emotional displays across 5 discrete emotions: joy, sadness, fear, anger, and disgust. Specifically, 16-, 19-, and 24-month-old infants observed an adult communicate a discrete emotion toward a stimulus during a naturalistic interaction. Infants' responses were coded to capture the function of their behaviors (e.g., exploration, prosocial behavior, and security seeking). The results revealed a number of instances indicating that infants use different functi...

Step-like movements were examined in pre-crawling (n=9) and crawling (n=9) 6-13 month-old infants in the air and on a surface in response to a static pattern or optic flows that moved toward or away from the infant. Infants completed six 60-s trials. A significant interaction between locomotor status and support condition revealed that pre-crawling infants made more step-like movements in the air than on a rigid surface. In contrast, crawling infants made an equivalent number of step-like movements in the air and on the surface. Optic flow did not influence the number of step-like movements made by infants. The pre-crawling infant finding is consistent with a finding in a previous study in which two month-old infants were shown to step more in the air than on the ground. This finding is discussed relative to the idea that the infant stepping pattern disappears because the legs become too heavy to lift.

Attempted to determine whether infants' performance in 2 search tasks was related to their entry into Stage 6 of object permanence development and thereby to test Piaget's claim that only Stage 6 infants possess the capacity for representation. Ss were 85 10-mo-olds. In these tasks, Ss found either the same toy as or a different toy than they had seen

ABSTRACT A few years ago, Emde, Gaensbauer, and Harmon (1976) highlighted two periods of rapid developmental reorganization in infancy. These periods were characterized by dramatic changes in perceptual, cognitive, and especially emotional functions. The period from 7 to 9 months of age is one of these times of rapid reorganization. It is marked by numerous changes in sensorimotor intelligence, including the beginnings of representation, changes in object permanence, new modes of understanding spatial relationships, more complex forms of imitation, and the beginnings of concept formation. This period also appears to be characterized by a burgeoning of fear: Infants at this age react aversively to separation, strangers, heights, looming stimuli, and various unfamiliar toys and objects (Scarr & Salapatek, 1970). The inverse of fear— security—also begins to be clearly evident. The child becomes capable of using the attachment figure as a “haven of safety” and as a “secure base for exploration” (Ainsworth, 1973; Bowlby, 1969). The important changes taking place in the attachment relationship herald major changes in other social contexts as well, including peer and sibling relationships and sociability to strangers (Campos, Barrett, Lamb, Goldsmith, & Stenberg, 1983).

Two independent experiments (n = 22 and n = 22) showed that 2-month-old infants displayed significantly more stepping movements when supported upright in the air than when supported with their feet contacting a surface. Air- and surface-stepping kinematics were quite similar (Experiment 2). In addition, when data were collapsed across both experiments, more air steps and more donkey kicks were seen when infants were exposed to optic flows that specified backward compared to forward translation. The findings challenge the currently accepted heavy legs explanation for the disappearance of stepping at 2 months of age and raise new questions about the visual control of stepping.

Human infants younger than crawling age yielded reliable cardiac decelerations when placed directly atop the deep side of a visual cliff and generally nonsignificant changes when atop the shallow side. Distress was elicited less frequently on the deep side than on the shallow at these ages, in contrast to the behavior of older infants and other species. Prelocomotor infants thus can discriminate the two sides of the cliff, but not by means of distress at loss of optical support.
