The goal of the study was to examine the developmental course of sleep consolidation from infancy to preschool. The sleep of 50 healthy infants aged 3 months was recorded, at home, with actigraphs (computerised activity monitors). Follow-up recordings were carried out at 6, 9, 12, 20, and 42 months (due to attrition and occasional technical failures, complete sleep records were not available for all subjects at all ages). The main findings were that by 12 months, nocturnal sleep is well organised; nevertheless, sleep continues to become less fragmented and more efficient beyond the first year. The child’s level of motor activity during sleep, and the overall sleep efficiency were moderately stable across time. In contrast, sleep duration and the number of nightwaking episodes were unstable from 3 to 42 months of age. Taken together, the continuity and change in the group trajectory of sleep maturation, as well as the stability and the periodic instability in the individuals’ rank across time, may be interpreted to reflect the interplay among constitutional, maturational, and experiential factors.

AbstractA brief treatment protocol for pediatric psychogenic pain conditions is presented, based on attachment and family systems theories and on the following principles of developmental psychopathology: commonality of developmental principles, developmental pathways, continuity and change in disorders of development, and disorders of development as reflecting competence-based strategies. Some principles of intervention based on this integrated model are presented, followed by an outline of the treatment protocol. Of 19 families who participated in the 4-day program, 17 had children who remained symptom-free on 6-month follow-up. Alternative family developmental pathways for pediatric psychogenic pain conditions are proposed as well as some directions for future research.
