projects to investigate certain areas of child development
in samples of children born at term and in the absence of
disease. Among these, the study of memory processes in a context
of social emotional stress and the study of early recognition
of emotion expressions. In addition, a line of study is aimed
at deepening parental perceptions related to some child characteristics
investigating the continuity of maternal perception of children
from pregnancy to the first months of life. Finally, some
research is aimed at increasing the knowledge on the development
of children temperament during the first years of life.
