Peer reviewedMadison, Lynda S.; And Others – Child Development, 1986
Evaluated the relation between fetal activity and postnatal behavior and development by measuring the amount of fetal movement occurring in response to stimulation and the number of stimulus applications necessary for habituation. Preliminary evidence suggests that fetal rate of habituation predicts some aspects of infant behavior and development…

Direct linkColombo, John; Shaddy, D. Jill; Richman, W. Allen; Maikranz, Julie M.; Blaga, Otilia M. – Infancy, 2004
A longitudinal sample of 226 infants were tested monthly on habituation and novelty preference tasks, augmented with simultaneous heart rate recording from 3 to 9 months of age. Infants were then administered the Bayley Scales of Infant Development II (BSID) and MacArthur Communicative Development Inventory (MCDI) at 12, 18, and 24 months. Prior…

Peer reviewedAlessandri, Steven M.; Bendersky, Margaret; Lewis, Michael – Developmental Psychology, 1998
Compared cognitive functioning of infants--at 8 and 18 months--with varying levels of prenatal cocaine exposure. Found that, with risk and polydrug exposure controlled, exposure groups did not differ at 8 months on Bayley Scales or recovery to a novel stimulus. Infants with heavy exposure or high environmental risk declined in mental development…
