Associations between Maternal Responsiveness due to The Number of Offspring and Motor Development
Main Article Content
Abstract
Maternal responsiveness (MR) is a predictor of the acquisition of motor skills by premature infants. This study aimed to verify associations between MR due to the number of offspring and motor development (MD) in preterm infants. Eighteen dyads participated in this study, divided into three groups: primiparous mothers with twin newborns (PMT), primiparous mothers (PM), and multiparous mothers (MM). Medical Records, the Social Interaction Scale (SIS), and a Motor Development Observation Protocol were used. In the Adaptive Fine Motor Development (AFMD), the PMT group presented more frequent “normal” outcomes (5; 83.3%), with a mean score of 13.2 points in the SIS (p < 0.0001). For those that evolved with “risk,” in both AFMD and gross motor development (GMD), the MM group stood out (4; 66.7%), presenting a mean SIS score of 12.1 (p < 0.0001). The MR quality as a function of the offspring number is associated with AFMD and GMD of premature infants in the first year of life.
