TY - JOUR PY - 1976// TI - Focus on maternal behavior in infant intervention JO - American journal of orthopsychiatry A1 - Bromwich, R. M. SP - 439 EP - 446 VL - 46 IS - 3 N2 - A six-stage maternal behavior progression is outlined, and its use as a schema for the assessment of parental behavior in parent-infant interaction is described. This approach focuses on parent-infant interaction, rather than the teaching of infant skills, as a basis for enhancing cognitive and affective development of the child. Use of the schema is illustrated in two cases from an intervention program for high-risk infants.
