先前的研究已经证明了抑郁母亲和非抑郁母亲的3个月大婴儿的脑电图激活模式的差异。在本研究中：脑电图记录在更年轻的1个月大的婴儿抑郁症和非抑郁症的母亲。抑郁母亲的婴儿表现出更大的相对右额叶脑电图不对称性（由于左额叶激活减少），在1个月的模式是显着相关的3个月的脑电图不对称。在Brazelton检查中，右额叶EEG不对称也与更频繁的负面面部表情（悲伤和哭前表情）有关。最后，抑郁母亲的婴儿表现出更多的不确定睡眠，不太活跃，比非抑郁母亲的婴儿哭得少。
Previous research has documented differences in the pattern of EEG activation between 3-month-old infants of depressed mothers and infants of nondepressed mothers. In the present study: EEG was recorded in even younger 1-month-old infants of depressed and nondepressed mothers. The infants of depressed mothers exhibited greater relative right frontal EEG asymmetry (due to reduced left frontal activation), and this pattern at 1 month was significantly related to 3-month EEG asymmetry. Right frontal EEG asymmetry was also related to more frequent negative facial expressions (sad and pre-cry faces) during the Brazelton exam. Finally, the infants of depressed mothers showed more indeterminate sleep, were less active, and cried less than infants of nondepressed mothers.
