BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Extremely preterm infants and infants born to adolescent mothers are at risk for adverse developmental. The objectives were to evaluate development and behavior outcomes of extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants born to adolescent mothers ,20 compared with adult mothers $20 years and to identify socioeconomic risk factors that affect outcomes.METHODS: Retrospective cohort analysis of 211 infants .27 weeks of adolescent mothers and 1723 infants of adult mothers at Neonatal Research Network centers from 2008 to 2011. Groups were compared and regression models were run to predict 18-to 22-month adverse outcomes. Primary outcomes were Bayley-III scores, neurodevelopmental impairment, and Brief Infant Toddler Social Emotional Assessment problem scores (BITSEA/P) $75th percentile.RESULTS: Adolescent mothers were more often single, Hispanic, less educated, and had public insurance. By 18 to 22 months, their children had significantly increased rates of having lived $3 places (21% vs 9%), state supervision (7% vs 3%), rehospitalization (56% vs 46%), and BITSEA/ P $75th percentile (50% vs 32%) and nonsignificant Bayley-III language scores ,85 (56% vs 49%, P = .07). In regression analysis, children of adolescent mothers were more likely to have BITSEA/P $75th percentile (relative risk 1.50, 95% confidence interval 1.08-2.07). Living $3 places and nonwhite race were predictors of adverse behavior. State supervision was an independent predictor of each Bayley-III composite ,70 and neurodevelopmental impairment.CONCLUSIONS: ELBW infants of adolescent mothers experience high social and environmental risks that are associated with adverse behavior outcomes. These findings inform the need for comprehensive follow-up, coordinated care services, and behavior interventions for ELBW infants of adolescent mothers.WHAT'S KNOWN ON THIS SUBJECT: Infants born extremely premature and infants born to adolescent mothers are at risk for adverse developmental and behavior outcomes. There is limited research on the dual risk imparted to infants born extremely premature to adolescent mothers. WHAT THIS STUDY ADDS:Extremely premature infants of adolescent mothers have significantly increased rates of behavior problems. Nonwhite race and living in $3 places by 18 to 22 months of age are risk factors for adverse behavior outcomes among infants of adolescent mothers. Dr Hoffman conceptualized and designed the study, drafted the initial manuscript, and approved the final manuscript as submitted; Dr Bann performed all the statistical analysis; Dr Higgins reviewed and approved the research protocol and final manuscript; and Dr Vohr mentored and assisted Dr Hoffman in conceptualizing and designing the study, revising the manuscript, and approving of the final manuscript as submitted. There are multiple coexisting socioeconomic and biologic factors that place extremely preterm infants of adolescent mothers at increased risk for adverse developmental and behavioral outcomes. Previous studies of extremely preterm in...

“…(), the authors found that the degree of vocal rhythmic coordination at 4 months of age predicted levels of attachment and cognitive outcomes at twelve months of age. There are additional studies exemplifying the notion that the degree of vocal interaction, either characterized in terms of temporal coordination (e.g., Feldman & Greenbaum, ) or characterized in terms of other properties such as vocalization rate (e.g., Allely et al., ), predicts important developmental outcomes. Studies of vocalization properties and vocal coordination patterns are used to build theories of attachment (e.g., Bowlby, ) and social learning (e.g., Landry, Smith, & Swank, ) in addition to being markers of typical and atypical development (e.g., Oller et al., ; Patten et al., ; Warlaumont et al., ).…”

The study of vocal coordination between infants and adults has led to important insights into the development of social, cognitive, emotional and linguistic abilities. We used an automatic system to identify vocalizations produced by infants and adults over the course of the day for fifteen infants studied longitudinally during the first two years of life. We measured three different types of vocal coordination: coincidence-based, rate-based, and cluster-based. Coincidence-based and rate-based coordination are established measures in the developmental literature. Cluster-based coordination is new and measures the strength of matching in the degree to which vocalization events occur in hierarchically nested clusters. We investigated whether various coordination patterns differ as a function of vocalization type, whether different coordination patterns provide unique information about the dynamics of vocal interaction, and how the various coordination patterns each relate to infant age. All vocal coordination patterns displayed greater coordination for infant speech-related vocalizations, adults adapted the hierarchical clustering of their vocalizations to match that of infants, and each of the three coordination patterns had unique associations with infant age. Altogether, our results indicate that vocal coordination between infants and adults is multifaceted, suggesting a complex relationship between vocal coordination and the development of vocal communication.

Parent–infant vocalisations at 12 months predict psychopathology at 7 years

Abstract: Highlights► Reduced caregiver vocalisations were associated with development of disruptive behaviour disorders. ► Higher infant vocalisations were associated with disruptive behaviour disorders. ► Study into parental vocalisation behaviours early in life may be clinically important.
