In the still‐face episode of the Face‐to‐Face/Still‐Face (FFSF), parents are asked to become unresponsive. However, infant–parent interaction may be irrepressible, and there is some evidence that interaction during the still‐face is associated with attachment outcome. To explore these questions, we independently coded the continuous affective valence (negative to positive) of seventy‐three 6‐month‐old infants (45 males; 36 Hispanic/Latinx; 38 White, 3 Black/African‐American, 2 Asian, 30 multiracial) and their parents (Mage = 36 years; 5 males; 30 Hispanic/Latinx; 65 White, 3 Black/African‐American, 2 Asian, 2 unknown) during the FFSF and assessed attachment at 15 months with the Strange Situation Procedure (n = 66). There was a mean positive correlation between moment‐to‐moment parent and infant affective valence, indicating synchronous affective interaction during the still‐face (d = 0.63). Higher levels of affect interaction during the still‐face episode were detected in infants later classified as disorganised compared to securely attached (d = 0.97). Findings underscore the importance of testing for still‐face interaction and suggest that this interaction may be an unappreciated predictor of infant attachment outcomes.

怎么样？静脸和后来的婴儿依恋期间的父母与婴儿互动

在“面对面/静止面孔”(FFSF) 的静止面孔事件中，父母被要求保持反应迟钝。然而，婴儿与父母的互动可能是无法抑制的，并且有一些证据表明，静止面孔期间的互动与依恋结果相关。为了探索这些问题，我们独立编码了 73 名 6 个月大婴儿（45 名男性；36 名西班牙裔/拉丁裔；38 名白人，3 名黑人/非裔美国人，2 名亚洲人，30 名白人）的连续情感效价（从负到正）。多种族）和他们的父母（中号年龄= 36 岁；男性 5 名；30 西班牙裔/拉丁裔；FFSF 期间有 65 名白人、3 名黑人/非裔美国人、2 名亚洲人、2 名身份不明），并在 15 个月时使用陌生情境程序评估了依恋（n= 66）。父母每时每刻的情感效价与婴儿的情感效价之间存在平均正相关关系，表明在静止面孔期间存在同步情感互动（d= 0.63）。与安全依恋的婴儿相比，后来被分类为混乱的婴儿在静止面部事件期间检测到更高水平的情感互动（d= 0.97）。研究结果强调了测试静止面部互动的重要性，并表明这种互动可能是婴儿依恋结果的一个未被重视的预测因素。
