Compliance with Ethical Standards

:

: The authors declare that no relevant conflicts of interest influenced the nature of the present research investigation.

: All procedures performed in studies involving human participants that participated in the studies cited that were conducted by Pelaez et al. were in accordance with the ethical standards of the institutional and/or national research committee and with the 1964 Helsinki declaration and its later amendments or comparable ethical standards.

: This is a brief report, and no data were collected. Informed consent in the studies cited in this article (by Gewirtz & Pelaez-Nogueras, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993.) was obtained from the parents of the infants who participated in those studies. Specifically, if the parent’s child met the characteristics for participation in the study and the parent provided consent-for-participation forms for both him- or herself and his or her child (via parental and child consent forms), the child would then begin the assessment procedures. The primary investigator was available and willing to answer any questions that the parent may have had regarding the study and his or her child’s participation throughout every session. Further, the consent form stressed that the parent may withdraw his or her child’s participation at any time and that all participation was purely voluntary in nature.
