Abstract in brief

  • This pilot study compares responsive sleep interventions to extinction methods in mother-infant pairs, analyzing their effects on infant sleep, maternal stress, and mental health.
  • Results showed no significant difference in sleep duration between groups, but mothers in the responsive group experienced less stress and depression, with no differences in infant cortisol levels.
  • The findings suggest that responsive sleep strategies are as effective as extinction methods for sleep outcomes but may be more beneficial for maternal mental health and stress reduction.
