Summary

This trial will test an intervention to improve mother-infant interaction for mothers who have experienced childhood adversity.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for first-time mothers over 18, expecting a single full-term and healthy baby, who have experienced childhood adversity as indicated by an ACE score of 2 or more. They must speak English or Spanish and not be taking antidepressants or illicit drugs during pregnancy.

What is being tested?

The study tests ATVV (a multisensory behavioral intervention) against standard education on safe infant care to see if it improves mother-infant interaction in women with past childhood adversity. Mothers are randomly assigned to one of the two groups and followed up from the third trimester through six months post-birth.

What are the potential side effects?

There are no direct side effects mentioned for this trial since it involves behavioral interventions rather than medications. However, any unexpected reactions related to the interventions would be monitored.
