Tummy time is an activity for infants to practice their early motor skills. Although most pediatricians recommend tummy time, parents may avoid the procedures due to indices of infant discomfort during this period. This consecutive controlled case series evaluation compared the effects of preferred items selected from a preference assessment with those of parental attention on head evaluation and negative vocalizations during tummy time. In addition, we directly evaluated parental choice by inviting parents to select which tummy time treatment they wanted to implement. We found that both preferred items and parental attention effectively increased head elevation and decreased negative vocalizations during tummy time; however, parents tended to prefer the treatment that included the preferred item.

趴着期间父母注意力和偏好项目的比较：连续对照病例系列评估

趴着时间是婴儿练习早期运动技能的活动。尽管大多数儿科医生建议俯卧时间，但由于婴儿在此期间出现不适症状，父母可能会避免进行该手术。这个连续的对照病例系列评估比较了从偏好评估中选择的偏好项目与父母注意力对头部评估和趴着时间的负面发声的影响。此外，我们通过邀请家长选择他们想要实施的俯卧时间治疗来直接评估家长的选择。我们发现，偏爱的物品和父母的关注都可以有效地增加头部抬高并减少趴着时的负面发声；然而，父母往往更喜欢包含首选项目的治疗方法。
