COVID-19 and Perinatal Experiences: New York (COPE)
The COPE study examines the joint effects of maternal psychosocial stress and COVID-19 infection during pregnancy on infant attention at six months postpartum. Over 160 mother-infant dyads were recruited into the study between 2020 and 2023. Approximately 43% of the infants were female, and 60% were white. When the infants were around 12 months old, the participants were contacted for a follow-up.
