Description: Social interactions are known to be an essential component of infant development. For this reason, exploring the functional neural activity while infants are engaged in social interactions will enable the better understanding of the infant social brain allowing us to begin to disentangle the neural basis of social and non-social interaction in addition to the influence maternal engagement has on infant brain development. The vast majority of existing free-play literature is experimentally-derived rather than naturally-derived. Thus, the present project aimed to remove this confounding variable and explore a completely spontaneous EEG free-play scenario between mother-infant dyads.
