Introduction
This is the first Annual Research Review on infancy
research for the JCPP. The time is ripe for an examination
of changing conceptions of first steps in human psychosocial growth.
The idea that normal human sensitivity for psychological impulses in other persons may have a basis in
inherent cognitive and emotional systems of the brain
specialised for this function has received attention in
psychology recently, much of it sceptical. Given the
predominance of individualist, constructivist, and cogRequests for reprints to : Professor Colwyn Trevarthen, Department of Psychology, University of Edinburgh, 7 George

Changes in older infants reactions to the two perturbation tests show that a capacity to withstand disengagement of a conversational game without distress
increases with the infants increasing alertness and curiosity for the environment at large. Infants over 4 months
easily engage in agile visual investigation of surroundings,
and they can use this new interest to escape an unresponsive mothers gaze. Whereas the 2-month-olds appear
to be trapped in the stressful encounter and usually
become seriously disturbed, the older infants are much
less concerned by brief unresponsiveness of the mother
(Biglow, MacLean, & MacDonald, 1996 ; Hains & Muir,
1996) ; they simply avoid looking at her (Muir & Hains,
1999 ; Trevarthen, 1984 a, 1990 a). Further age-related
changes in infants resistance to distress and separation
will affect how they behave in any situation where the
mothers responses are unusual, and when they are older
than 6 months infants often regard the still face test as an
entertaining game (Trevarthen, 1998 a, p. 40). The tests
with 2-month-olds engage the protoconversational
motives that are active in primary intersubjectivity ,
before motives for investigative looking and manipulating have become strong, and before the infant has
developed a robust self-confidence in game playing,
teasing, and showing off.
both attachment, serving the developing infants trophotropic needs, and companionship, by which experiences
and skilful actions directed to the environment are shared
and learned socially (Trevarthen, 2000 ; and see Fig. 2).
The ergotropic\trophotropic distinction in animal motivations was first made by Hess (1954) on the basis of
physiological effects of brain stimulation. For modern
evidence on motive systems of the mammalian brain see
Panksepp (1998 a).
Experimental cognitive psychology has focused principally on the ergotropic, environment-assimilating functions of the infant as an individual perceiver and actor,
exploring and using objects, observing events, and acquiring skills of perceiving and acting. Consequently
primary importance has been given, first, to the very
conspicuous changes in visual focus at 4 to 6 weeks, then
in attention and manipulation with advances of postural
control, visual orienting, and discrimination, and reaching and grasping around 3 and 4 months (e.g. Rochat &
Striano, 1999). A second major change in cognition
comes toward the end of the first year as the infant, on the
threshold of independent locomotion, shows more deliberate interest in pursuing the kind of purposes which
adults see as intentional and becomes more capable of
solving problems of the ways objects interact and can be
used together.
These changes, at these three ages, have been taken by
developmental authorities as the beginnings of various
functions of consciousness, object concepts, volition, and
self-awareness. The program of developments in object
cognition has been assumed to set the pace and strategy
for social cognition , a product that must incorporate
the capacity for relational emotions, empathy, and
intersubjectivity (e.g. Bahrick & Watson, 1985 ; BaronCohen, 1994 ; Gergeley & Watson, 1999 ; Izard, 1978,
1994 ; Lewis & Brooks-Gunn, 1979 ; Mahler et al., 1975 ;
Piaget, 1954, 1962 ; Rochat & Striano, 1999 ; Rothbart,
1994 ; Schore, 1991 ; Sroufe, 1996 ; Stern, 1985 ; Tomasello, 1993 ; Yarrow et al., 1984 ; Zahn-Waxler, RadkeYarrow, Wagner, & Chapman, 1992). An alternative
view holds that self-awareness and emotional maturity
comes principally with language and social training, after
infancy (Dunn, 1994 ; Lewis, 1987, 1992, 1993). Such
conclusions can only be supported if the ways in which
younger infants, including newborns, react purposefully
and emotionally to the environment are disregarded, and
their reactions to the communicative signals from other
persons are explained as reflexive or mindless . We
believe that the changes through the first and second year
or childhood are more accurately seen as developmental
transformations in prenatally drafted motives that are
adapted for intelligent life in the company of other
subjects, not the first appearance of the adaptive behaviours.
Research on the social development of infants focused
on the supposed dependence of communication on
cognitive development, or on the dependence of the child
for emotional development on parental regulation, and,
on imitation, takes the childs self-awareness to be a
construct built of experiences acquired concerning how
other persons react to what the child does, inferring
purposes where they did not exist (Kaye, 1982). The
increasing self-consciousness of the infant in the second 6
months of life has been taken as evidence for the
beginning of a representation of other individuals intentions, or intersubjectivity. Advances in the dynamics of
interaction and in social signalling are supposed to reflect

Figure 1. Top : In protoconversation, a two-month-old infant and a mother communicate by many modalities of perception and
expression, transmitting information about intrinsic motive rhythms and emotions, principally by eye-to-eye contact, voice, facial
expression and gesture. Middle : In the first 18 months of life there are marked changes in the infants consciousness of other persons
and in their motives for communication, without language. Several major transitions can be observed in self-and-other awareness at
particular ages. These lead the child toward cooperative interest in actions and objects, and cultural learning. Below : Research studies
that have made detailed longitudinal observations at sufficiently frequent intervals have found evidence for major periods of rapid
change (PRCs) in motor coordination, perceptual abilities, and communication. All may be described as elaborations of the means
by which the initial purposeful, consciously regulated, and intersubjective motives of the newborn infant may be employed to further
learning. The sources of the data on which this summary is based are cited in Trevarthen, Aitken, and Plooij (2000).

pendence of an infant. Parental teasing games, characteristic of good relationships, demonstrate this negotiation. Infants, also, tease their companions, especially
after 3 months, and this behaviour, with early demonstrations of coyness (Reddy, 2000), proves that infants
already have an expectation of and interest in what the
other may perceive and do, an other-awareness (DraghiLorenz, Reddy, & Morris, 2000 ; Reddy, 1991, 2000 ;
Reddy et al., 1997).
Infants may react to others attention with self-testing
gestures and display, creating socially conscious mannerisms or bearing, which Wallon (1928) called, in French,
prestance : i.e., offering the self to others by assuming a
ceremonial posture or manner, acknowledging a public
and their formal or intuitive appreciation. Six-montholds often show off, making exaggerated postures or
grimaces, displaying imitated trick behaviours, such
as head shaking, bouncing, hand-clapping, silly faces,
shouting, theatrically coughing or squealing, and they
repeat appreciated behaviours to amuse themselves or
familiar companions (Reddy, 1991 ; Trevarthen, 1990 a,
1998 a). Infants also turn these display behaviours to face
a mirror, examining themselves with amusement and
displaying lively postures and hand gestures, which
indicates that this kind of self-consciousness is part of the
awareness of others (Fiamenghi, 1997 ; Reddy, 2000 ;
Reddy et al., 1997 ; Trevarthen, 1986 b, 1990 a ; Trevarthen et al., 1999). Siblings, and adults, take up the
developing sense of fun to make the infant laugh with
mock attacks and exaggerated comments, and this
evidently can assist development of the infants social
understanding and social expression (Dunn, 1994 ; Nadel
& Tremblay-Leveau, 1999). Expressions of these subtle
kinds gain value in the more intricate negotiations of
triads, such as mother-father-infant interactions (FivazDepeursinge & Corboz-Warnery, 1999) or those between
an adult and two infants (Nadel & Tremblay-Leveau,
1999).
Infants also develop, at about 7 or 8 months, both
stronger attachment to the mother and increased
stranger fear (Ainsworth & Bell, 1970 ; Sroufe, 1977,
1996). These developments, viewed in the whole context
of infants social behaviours at this age, appear to be
elaborations of motives that prepare for cooperative
learning in specific relationships, i.e. of conventional
behaviours and symbols that are meaningful with known
companions (Trevarthen & Logotheti, 1987). First meanings make sense only in the restricted culture of the
family, and an infants learned tricks and mannerisms are
likely to be misunderstood by unfamiliar persons, who
may, quite sensibly, be regarded with suspicion. In the
last months of the first year imitated behaviours are
readily incorporated in delayed reproductions (Meltzoff,
1995 ; Meltzoff & Moore, 1999 ; Trevarthen, 1990 a),
which proves their role in the development of arbitrary
symbolic representations (Akhtar & Tomasello, 1996 ;
Nadel & Butterworth, 1999 ; Piaget, 1962). Games with 6month-olds increasingly involve objects (Hubley & Trevarthen, 1979 ; Pecheux et al., in press ; Trevarthen &
Hubley, 1978), and infants take more opportunities for
joining their exploration of the private knowledge of
things with the social experience of being an actor.
Imbalance in the complex of motives emerging at this
time in a disordered brain mechanism of intentions and
intersubjectivity may be the principle factor precipitating
diagnostic features of autistic behaviour, which we
discuss further below (Hobson, 1993 a ; S. J. Rogers,
INFANT INTERSUBJECTIVITY
15
Figure 2. Intrinsic motives coordinate three types of engagement of a human subject with the body and the outside world :
AProcesses that regulate the physiological functions of the body maintain the subjects organismic integrity and sustain vital
functions ; BEngagements with physical objects and situations assume anticipatory control over the effects of actions, aided by
perception of the properties of the objects and surroundings and what they afford for different purposes ; CCommunication with
other subjects, and any adjustment to their behaviour, must take account of their purposes and awareness. This communication and
anticipation of other subjects behaviour is aided by perception of their motives and emotions, which are detected by perception of
movements and autonomic adjustments that prepare for critical intentions to be carried out. Combinations of these three kinds of
motive generate three domains of subjective and intersubjective life : IIndividual subjects can act on the physical world to benefit
their existence as organisms, evaluating objects and situations in terms of their usefulness for nutrition, self-protection, comfort, etc. ;
IIAid from other subjects may be enlisted to benefit individuals state of wellbeing or comfort. The kind of relationship described
as Attachment between a child and caregiver is of this kind ; IIIWhen subjects act collaboratively with joint and mutually aware
interest in their common world of objects and places where they may act and plan actions together, they gain intersubjective
understanding of common meanings. This is the companionship that leads to cultural learning of all kinds.
16
participating in social routines and well-practised formats, or regulating mutual attention, they carry out these
intentions with intersubjectively regulated feelingbeing
serious, acting silly, expressing enjoyment or exuberance,
teasing. Acts by means of which toddlers negotiate
motives of social participation are found to come earlier
in development than intention-directing protoimperatives (Ninio & Snow, 1996 ; Snow, Pan, Imbens-Bailey,
& Herman, 1996), just as person-person games come
before person-person-object games in the middle of the
first year (Trevarthen & Hubley, 1978). Meltzoff (1985 b,
1995) has noted the importance of deferred imitation in
the developing understanding of others intentions in the
second year of infancy. Reproduction of the act checks
the original purpose.
Language pragmatics carries implications of rational
objectivity that are especially unfortunate in application
to the early protolanguage communications of infants.
In the social life of a 1-year-old, communication with
other persons is primarily concerned with how the relationship offers opportunities for taking part in intentions
and attentions with the emotions that accompany them
(Papaeliou, 1998). What is important in a protolanguage
sign or act of meaning is not the fact referred to, or
even just the social convention of its form, but the
sympathy and aspects of intersubjectivity exhibited in the
looking, gesturing, and vocalising (Halliday, 1975). Infants can use others as conditions or context for the
implementation of their will, but their behaviours have
intrinsic interpersonal valueas irony, humour, or teasing, for example. Infant semiosis is emotional, not just
representational or referential (Trevarthen, 1994). It is
fundamentally self-with-other-referred , and from that
as foundation it can become self-object-referred or
gain a practical objective. It is metacommunicative, in
Gregory Batesons sense (1956), before it is metacognitive.
Even among adults, much of language is not so much
for practical use, the applying of purposes to reality. Nor
is it just governed by rules. It is social in the sense that it
is interpersonal, emotive, relational, intersubjective
concerned not with the truth of a context and its
constraints or usable affordances, nor so much with
maxims of speaking, but with impulses and emotions in
immediate human contact while imaginations are actively
running ahead of purposes (Rommetveit, 1979, 1998).
Much confusion has been generated by attempting to
explain the early stages of language learning as a matter
of coordinating vocalisations just with referential intentions and attentionsrequests, pointing, showing,
givingwithout concern for the human feelings and
sensitivities which form the dynamic texture of all live
communication and experiencing together . Joint attention, which is strongly associated with the picking up
of words in the second and third years (Locke, 1993 ;
Rollins & Snow, 1998 ; Tomasello, 1988 ; Tomasello &
Farrar, 1986), is not just a convergence of lines of sight
and directions of instrumental action. It depends on the
motives for doing while child and partner are attentive to
one another in communication.
Nadel (Nadel, Gue! rini, Peze! , & Rivet, 1999 ; Nadel &
Peze! , 1993 ; Nadel & Tremblay-Leveau, 1999) has demonstrated the importance of immediate imitation among
toddlers, including imitation of utterances, for the sharing
of meaning, and she underlines the pleasure and humour
of the sharing. Emotional narrative, the dramatics of
expressive intentions, may even provide the underlying

Figure 3. The emotional mechanisms of the human brain occupy all levels and their fundamental coordinations in communication are rooted in brainstem systems of ancient origin.
In more primitive forms, these were concerned mainly with the regulation of visceral functions of the individuals ; in higher social species they are elaborated for communication of
motive states (see Table 1). In the human embryo brain at 7 weeks gestational age (right) the brainstem emotional motor system, and associated sensory structures, are well formed.
It includes the special visceral efferents of the cranial nerves, and projection systems that innervate the diencephalon and forebrain, including the neocortical regions, which are in
a very rudimentary condition at this time. The heavy circle marks the region recently identified as a site of atrophy in brains of children that develop autism, an abnormality that
apparently occurs in the first month of gestation (Rodier, 2000).
