Cardiac and Behavioral Interrelationships in the Reactions of Infants to Strangers

Campos, Joseph J.; And Others

Developmental Psychology, 11, 5, 589-601, Sep 75

Cardiac and behavioral reactions to strangers were measured in 5-, and 9-month-olds. Results indicate that: (1) behavioral differences between 5- and 9-month-olds are reflected in heart rate differences, (2) there are differences in heart rate but not behaviors when mothers are absent, and (3) heart rate response is linked to affective expression.
