Maternal substance use, unpredictability of sensory signals and child cognitive development: An exploratory study Open
Maternal substance use and unpredictable maternal sensory signals may affect child development, but no studies have examined them together. We explored the unpredictability, frequency and duration of maternal sensory signals in 52 Caucasia…

Unpredictable Maternal Behavior and Infant Emotional Reactivity in the Context of High Maternal Adversity Open
BackgroundWomen in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) are at heightened risk of experiencing childhood maltreatment, with potential consequences for their offspring. Recent research, mostly conducted in high-income western countries, …

Across ages and places: Unpredictability of maternal sensory signals and child internalizing behaviors Open
Findings across the three diverse cohorts suggest that unpredictable maternal signals early in life shape the development of internalizing behaviors, particularly fearfulness and anxiety.

Maternal Substance Use, Unpredictability of Sensory Signals and Child Cognitive Development: An Exploratory Study Open
Both maternal substance use and unpredictability of her sensory signals may affect child development, but no studies have examined them together. We explored the unpredictability, frequency, and duration of maternal sensory signals in 59 m…

Structural brain correlates of non‐verbal cognitive ability in 5‐year‐old children: Findings from the <span>FinnBrain</span> birth cohort study Open
Non‐verbal cognitive ability predicts multiple important life outcomes, for example, school and job performance. It has been associated with parieto–frontal cortical anatomy in prior studies in adult and adolescent populations, while young…

View article: Unpredictable maternal sensory signals in caregiving behavior are associated with child effortful control
Unpredictable maternal sensory signals in caregiving behavior are associated with child effortful control Open
Emerging evidence suggests that exposure to unpredictable patterns of maternal sensory signals during infancy is associated with child neurodevelopment, including poorer effortful control. However, longitudinal effects on child development…

Child Inhibitory Control in Toddlerhood: Associations with Child Interaction Quality with the Mother and Preliminary Neural Structural Correlates Open
Objective: Inhibitory control (IC) is one important predictor of academic achievement and social-emotional development. IC develops rapidly in early childhood and is considered moderately stable from preschool-age onwards. The role of IC f…

Maternal sensitivity at the age of 8 months associates with local connectivity of the medial prefrontal cortex in children at 5 years of age Open
The quality of mother–child interaction, especially maternal sensitivity in caregiving behavior, plays an important role in a child’s later socioemotional development. Numerous studies have indicated associations between poor mother–child …
View article: The Connection and Development of Unpredictability and Sensitivity in Maternal Care Across Early Childhood
The Connection and Development of Unpredictability and Sensitivity in Maternal Care Across Early Childhood Open
Both patterns of maternal sensory signals and sensitive care have shown to be crucial elements shaping child development. However, research concerning these aspects of maternal care has focused mainly on maternal sensitivity with fewer stu…

Maternal Executive Functioning, Emotional Availability and Psychological Distress During Toddlerhood: A FinnBrain Birth Cohort Study Open
Executive functioning (EF) is one of the building blocks in parental caregiving behavior, and contextual variables have been reported to moderate the link between EF and caregiving behavior. Although psychological distress due to various f…
View article: Maternal Anxiety Symptoms and Self-Regulation Capacity Are Associated With the Unpredictability of Maternal Sensory Signals in Caregiving Behavior
Maternal Anxiety Symptoms and Self-Regulation Capacity Are Associated With the Unpredictability of Maternal Sensory Signals in Caregiving Behavior Open
The unpredictability of maternal sensory signals in caregiving behavior has been recently found to be linked with infant neurodevelopment. The research area is new, and very little is yet known, how maternal anxiety and depressive symptoms…
