Japanese and American Infants' Responses to Arm Restraint.

Camras, Linda A.; And Others

Developmental Psychology, v28 n4 p578-83 Jul 1992

Measured 5- and 12-month-old Japanese and U.S. infants' responses to an arm restraint procedure. Found that older infants exhibited shorter response latencies and produced more negative facial expressions than did younger infants. Among five month olds, U.S. infants produced negative facial expressions more quickly than did Japanese infants. (BC)
