Maternal Touch During Mother–Infant Interactions in Infants With and Without an Elevated Likelihood for Autism: Links With Symptom‐Level Difficulties of Maternal Psychological Stress
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2025 at "Autism Research"
DOI: 10.1002/aur.70067
Abstract: Infants at elevated likelihood for autism (EL infants) have varied developmental outcomes. This exposes parents to a unique parenting journey, and in some, heightened psychological stress. This study investigated how maternal psychological stress is linked… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/hbm.23679
Abstract: Humans belong to a minority of mammalian species that exhibit monogamous pair‐bonds, thereby enabling biparental care of offspring. The high reward value of interpersonal closeness and touch in couples is a key proximate mechanism facilitating… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00221-018-5404-2
Abstract: Interpersonal touch is known to influence human communication and emotion. An important system for interpersonal touch is the C-tactile (CT) system, which is activated by a soft stroke on hairy skin with a velocity of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroscience.2020.07.007
Abstract: The human tactile system is known to discriminate different types of touches, one of these termed 'affective touch', is mainly mediated by slow conducting tactile afferents (CT fibres), which are preferentially activated by slow and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1037/emo0000393
Abstract: Research has suggested that interpersonal touch promotes social processing and other-concern, and that women may respond to it more sensitively than men. In this study, we asked whether this phenomenon would extend to third-party observers… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-019-12511-z
Abstract: Touch is a fundamental aspect of social, parental and sexual behavior. In contrast to our detailed knowledge about cortical processing of non-social touch, we still know little about how social touch impacts cortical circuits. We… read more here.
