2019, Current BiologyCitation Excerpt :Parental responsivity to peak infant arousal events was equivalent between dyads with high and low parental anxiety; but more anxious parents showed greater responsivity to small-scale arousal fluctuations in the child. Other research has suggested that abusive parents and adults at risk for physical abuse can respond with excessive physiological arousal to recordings of infants crying [39]—suggesting that some parents show excessive reactivity (see [40]). In the future, it may be useful to examine whether the linear relationships documented in Figure 3G in fact show quadratic tendencies, such that both parental over- and under-reactivity is associated with slower infant recovery.
Prenatal and postnatal cortisol and testosterone are related to parental caregiving quality in fathers, but not in mothers
2018, PsychoneuroendocrinologyCitation Excerpt :However, postnatally we observed a relation opposite to the predictions of the dual-hormone hypothesis, as CORT was more negatively associated with quality of caregiving for fathers with higher levels of T. Although this is not in line with the dual-hormone hypothesis, such opposite effects have previously been observed in men (Welker et al., 2014). Furthermore, this finding for the postnatal session is in line with the idea that hyperreactive physiological responses are negatively related to parental sensitivity (McCanne and Hagstrom, 1996). Contextual differences between the two conditions, i.e. caring for an unsoothable infant simulator versus interaction with the own child, might explain the opposite effects in these interactions.
