Abstract

Date Presented 4/8/2016

This study found strong associations between some social–emotional (SE) behaviors and early mobility for infants at high risk for cerebral palsy. Indications that early mobility may scaffold on SE behaviors for high-risk infants suggests interventions should target both areas to be effective.
