Affect, cognition, and the emergence of self-knowledge in the toddler offspring of depressed mothers

Article Abstract:

Researchers investigated visual self-recognition in young children of depressed mothers. The findings confirmed earlier research in that the children, who were aged 18-21 months, displayed no difference in visual self-recognition whether or not their mothers were depressed, indicating that self-recognition is a function of biological development. However, children of depressed mothers were more likely to have a non-positive reaction to their image in the post-rouge condition, and to change from positive to non-positive reactions in this application.
