  • Title: Möbius syndrome: alternatives in affective communication.
    Author: Szajnberg NM.
    Journal: Dev Med Child Neurol; 1994 May; 36(5):459-62. PubMed ID: 8168665.
    Abstract:
    A child with Möbius syndrome (facial diplegia) was studied during affective interplay with both parents at six and 10 months, then re-assessed with the Ainsworth Strange Situation at 14 months. The child demonstrated normal cognitive development, but insecure-resistant attachment. This experiment of nature is presented as an example of resilience in the field of social communication of affect and discussed as comparable to examples found in the fields of motor co-ordination and expressive language.
