一些理论概念强调了对婴儿信号做出及时反应对于为他们提供早期因果经验的重要性。本文探讨了是否可以通过对母亲反应潜伏期的分布分析来识别母亲做出迅速反应的倾向，以及：是否可以在不同的沟通渠道（言语/声音、非言语、联运沟通）中显示出这种反应倾向。此外，本文还重点研究了母亲行为的时间偶然性与母亲互动质量测量之间的关系。使用微分析评估技术和交互质量评级对 54 名母亲和 3 个月大婴儿的交互序列进行了分析。对面对面接触期间母亲表情的分布分析表明，对婴儿信号的快速反应和短潜伏期是母亲行为的典型反应倾向。然而，母亲之间存在个体差异，表明这种反应倾向是由个体母亲通过不同的沟通渠道表达的。不同沟通渠道的意外事件指数之间的相关性较低就表明了这一点。结果表明，意外事件与互动质量评级指标之间的关系相当小，这表明母亲意外事件可能被概念化为对母亲互动行为质量做出贡献的独立因素。
Several theoretical conceptions emphasize the importance of prompt responses to infant's signals in providing them with early causal,experiences. The present paper examines if a maternal tendency toward prompt responses can be identified by distributional analyses of maternal response latencies and:if this response tendency can be shown for different communicative channels (in verbal/vocal, nonverbal,: intermodal communication). In addition, the paper focuses on the relation between the temporal contingency of maternal behavior and measures of maternal interactional quality. Interactional sequences of 54 mother and 3-month-old infant dyads were analyzed using microanalytical assessment techniques and ratings of interactional quality. Distributional analyses of maternal expressions during face-to-face encounters revealed that promptness of responses toward infant signals with a short latency is a typical response tendency in maternal behavior. There are, however, individual differences between mothers, indicating that this response tendency is expressed in different communicative channels by individual mothers. This is shown by low correlations between the contingency indices of different communicative channels. The relation between contingency and rated indicators of interactional quality turned out to be rather small, indicating that maternal contingency may be conceptualized to contribute an independent factor to the quality of maternal interactional behavior.
