- Abstract
The article reports a study that describes the development of a salivary cortisol circadian rhythm (SCCR) in infants at high psychosocial risk. The researchers cite the variations in behavioral regularity compared to full-term infants by measuring salivary cortisol levels during the early years of life. A statistical data on the salivary control values to monitor control indices in infants is also presented.
