虽然众所周知，母亲对婴儿的行为和家庭生活的文化生态在不同文化之间和文化内部都有很大的差异，但这些差异对婴儿对压力反应的影响还没有得到很好的理解。在本报告中，在常规儿科疫苗接种期间，对意大利北部婴儿及其母亲在5个月和12个月时进行了纵向观察。我们采访了婴儿8个月大的母亲，询问她们如何安排家庭日常生活，如何回应婴儿，以及她们对婴儿护理的文化模式。主要结果如下：（a）婴儿在1个月时比在5个月时安静得快;（B）在5个月时母亲更多的响应性抚慰与更长的婴儿安静时间同时相关并具有预测性;（c）12个月时婴儿安静速度的个体差异的最佳预测因素是婴儿家庭文化生态的变化;（d）照顾婴儿和家庭生态环境的变化，可改变5至12个月婴儿对压力反应的个别发展模式。意大利文化模式的养育和变化的日常组织进行了评估，使用定性和定量的方法。意大利家庭和家庭文化的特点，确定和描述的影响婴儿安静，包括模式的父母接近婴儿，强大的家庭支持照顾者，和文化目标，喜欢一个“活泼”（活泼，社会参与）的婴儿。(C)2002年由Elsevier Science Inc.出版
Although it is well known that maternal behavior with infants and cultural ecology of family life varies widely both across and within cultures, the effects of these variations on infant responses to stress are not well understood. In this report, North Italian infants and their mothers were observed longitudinally at 5 and 12 months during routine pediatric vaccinations. We interviewed mothers when babies were 8 months regarding how they organize their family daily routines, how they respond to their babies, and their cultural models about baby care. The main results were: (a) infants quiet faster at 1 than at 5 months; (b) more maternal responsive soothing at 5 months is concurrently and predictively associated with longer Infant Quieting; (c) the best predictor of individual differences in speed of Infant Quieting at 12 months are variations in Infant Home Cultural Ecology; (d) variations in infant care and ecology of the family can modify individual developmental patterns of stress reactivity between 5 and 12 months. Italian cultural models of parenting and variations in the organization of the daily routine were assessed using qualitative and quantitative methods. Eighteen features characterizing Italian home and family culture are identified and described which influence Infant Quieting, including patterns of close parental proximity to the baby, strong family support for caretakers, and cultural goals preferring a "vivace" (lively, socially engaged) infant.
