Publications
Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale, 4th Edition Introduction Since the time it was first published, the NBAS has been used in hundreds of studies to examine the effects of a wide range of pre- and perinatal variables, including intrauterine growth restriction, low birthweight, and prematurity, obstetric medication, environmental toxins (PCBs) and maternal ingestion of toxins – cocaine, tobacco, alcohol and caffeine and has been used to examine neonatal differences in different cultural settings across the globe. This new edition contains an updated review of research using the NBAS, including new guidelines for clinicians, numerous refinements in the administration and scoring and a new section describing new advances in our understanding of motor behaviour.
