Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study was aimed at developing an observational method for the early detection of neurodevelopmental disorders. We recorded forty-one three-day-old newborns when: (1) a paediatrician was assessing them following our version of shortened NBAS (Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale); and (2) when their mother was communicating with them. As of June 2018, the data are now being analysed regarding the distribution of the scores, the association between the two scale scores, and other associations between the outcome scores and perinatal variables. A follow-up study is to be performed from July 2018, in order to assess any association between the video images and one-year old development.
