The effect was small, but was identified in the
whole program group,
instead of only in a smaller subgroup.86 In Memphis, more positive interactions were observed in the subgroup
of women who possessed low psychological resources.87 Likewise, home - visited mothers in Early Head Start were rated as more supportive during play with their
children than controls, though the effect was small.88 Maternal sensitivity was also examined in Hawaii Healthy Start, the Healthy Families evaluations in San Diego and Alaska, and the Comprehensive
Child Development Program, though none identified significant effects.
