Life's First Feelings

- (Nova series) Infants are able to express a far broader range of emotions than researchers and psychologists once believed. Newborns can communicate interest, disgust and distress; within a few months they can express the subtleties of such feelings as anger, surprise, fear, shyness and joy. In the last decade researchers have been pursuing quantitative investigations of the emotional development of young children. NOVA surveys such studies, looking at how new insights can be used by parents in child rearing and by therapists in approaching problems of mental health.
