    No full text
    Si tratta di un intervento che, partendo da dati pubblicati dal MIUR sull'aumento delle diagnosi di Disturbi Specifici dell'Apprendimento avvenuto in Italia in Italia negli ultimi anni dopo l'approvazione della legge 170 del 2010, intende aprire la discussione su quali fattori possono avere contribuito nel determinare tale aumento. Sono presi in considerazione sia fattori legati agli aspetti di valutazione clinica che fattori relativi al ruolo della scuola e della famiglia

    Can Newborns discriminate between their own cry and the cry of another newborn infant?

    Two experiments were conducted to test whether newborns could discriminate between their own cry and the cry of another newborn infant. Facial behavior and nonnutritive sucking rate were adopted as dependent measures. In Experiment 1, 20 newborns in an awake state were presented with either their own cry or the cry of another infant. In the latter condition, newborns showed the facial expression of distress more frequently and for a longer duration. In addition, the rate of sucking decreased significantly between the pretest phase and the 1st min of presentation of another infant's cry. Newboms' responses, although delayed and less intense, showed a similar trend in Experiment 2, during which 20 newborns in a sleep state were tested with the same procedure. These results indicate the newborns' capability to discriminate between the 2 cry stimuli and show the effectiveness of a newborn cry in inducing distress signals in another newborn infant
