Brief Summary

An innovative methodology is developed to better understand parent-infant relationships. RGB-D sensors (such as Microsoft Kinect) give us the opportunity of online skeleton extraction based on the joints architecture of human bodies. These technologies provide automatic quantitative information of dyadic play, in order to get micro and macro features of the dynamic flow occurring during the interaction. This methodology looks at both behavioral features and objective measurement of spatial proximity and variations during free and structured interactions.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Proximity features identification

  identification, using Microsoft Kinect, of patterns that are typical of mother-infant interaction in the context of both typical development and developmental neurodisability. Patterns are extracted thanks to the generation of an algorithm that is able to extract data provided by Miscrosoft Kinect

  Mother-infant interaction occurs when the chld is between 18-36 months of age (6 months after the enrollment, that occurs betrween 12-18 months of age of the child)

• Integration of automatic computational metrics obtained by the kinect data extraction with behavioral assessment made through PICCOLO observational checklist

  to compare and integrate automatic computational metrics extracted from Microsoft Kinect with behavioral assessments of the interaction. PICCOLO (Parenting Interactions with Children: Checklist of Observations Linked to Outcomes) is the validated observational tool used for the assessment of the mother-infant interaction. The parenting skills profile obtained from PICCOLO will be paired to metrics extracted from Microsoft Kinect, facilitating and objectivizing features of the mother-infant interaction.

  Mother-infant interaction occurs when the child is between 18-36 months of age (6 months after the enrollment, that occurs betrween 12-18 months of age of the child)
