Highly irritable infants tend to receive less sensitive care and are at greater risk for developing insecure relationships to their caregiver.
“Two reports by Crockenberg (1981) and van den Boom (1994) that highly irritable infants tend to receive less sensitive care and are at greater risk for developing insecure relationships to their caregiver were especially compelling in this regard.”

Sensitive parenting might be challenged and reduced by infant negativity, but enhanced when the child positively stimulates the mother and responds to her bids for interaction.
“Their findings suggest that sensitive parenting might be challenged and reduced by infant negativity, but enhanced when the child positively stimulates the mother and responds to her bids for interaction”

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.
