The present pilot study focuses on the adaptive processes of babies who are placed during their first months of life. It used an ethological approach to explore the behavioural adjustment of 19 infants from their arrival in placement through their first 6 weeks in Residential Care (RC; France), a Foster Family (FF; Québec) or an Infant–Mother Centre (IMC; Québec). Direct observations were conducted once a week during feeding sessions. Observed behaviours were as follows: sleep–wake state, self‐soothing, burp, visual exploration, motor activity, facial and vocal expressions. Then, a Kruskal–Wallis test was conducted to examine differences in babies’ adaption as a function of placement setting. Results showed that, in RC, the duration of the post‐feeding phase is the shortest. Moreover, these institutionalized babies showed the most modes of self‐protection and the fewest vocalizations. By contrast, babies placed in the IMC spent the least time in withdrawal, expressed motor activity more regularly and were never placed back in their recliner before burping. Larger differences appear comparing placement in RC and that in the IMC, the placement in FF showing intermediate results.

三种安置方式的婴儿适应:一种行为学方法

目前的试点研究侧重于在出生后头几个月被安置的婴儿的适应过程。它使用行为学方法来探索 19 名婴儿从他们到达安置到住所(RC;法国)、寄养家庭(FF;魁北克)或婴儿-母亲中心(IMC;魁北克)的前 6 周的行为调整)。在喂食期间每周进行一次直接观察。观察到的行为如下:睡眠-觉醒状态、自我安慰、打嗝、视觉探索、运动活动、面部和声音表达。然后,进行了 Kruskal-Wallis 测试,以检查作为安置环境函数的婴儿适应的差异。结果表明,在 RC 中,后喂养阶段的持续时间最短。而且,这些被收容的婴儿表现出最多的自我保护方式和最少的发声方式。相比之下,放置在 IMC 中的婴儿退缩时间最少,运动活动更频繁,并且在打嗝前从不放回躺椅。比较 RC 中的放置和 IMC 中的放置出现更大的差异,FF 中的放置显示中间结果。
