Abstract
This experiment was designed to determine the degree to which temperam ent, severity of illness, age, and gender predict the neurobehavioral responses of high-risk infants during tactile stimulation. Results ind icated that temperament was the most consistent predictor of greater p hysiologic and behavioral distress during touch.
