The relations between infant negative reactivity, non-maternal childcare, and children's interactions with familiar and unfamiliar peers
Open accessAbstract
The present study examined the influence of children's experiences during non-maternal childcare on their behavior towards unfamiliar peers. Participants included children classified as negatively reactive at 4 months of age (n = 52) and children not negatively reactive (n = 61), who were further divided into those who experienced non-maternal care and those who did not. Children were observed during childcare at 24 months of age and in the laboratory with an unfamiliar peer at 24 and 36 months of age, where their wariness, dysregulation and social engagement were assessed. Within the negatively reactive childcare group, children's positive interactions with peers during childcare at 24 months predicted lower levels of wariness towards an unfamiliar peer at 36 months. This relation was not significant for children not classified as negatively reactive. The findings suggest that the influence of non-maternal childcare is dependent on a child's temperament and the nature of peer interactions during care.

Behaviorally inhibited preschoolers who received non-maternal childcare were less likely to later exhibit anxious behaviors around peers.
“Indeed, evidence has demonstrated that behaviorally inhibited preschoolers who received non-maternal childcare were less likely to later exhibit anxious behaviors around peers (Almas et al., 2011).”

“Negative experiences with peers, in turn, can contribute to continuity in inhibited and anxious symptoms over time as children avoid the negative social interactions that they come to expect (Ladd, 2006).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
