Answer to Question 1

Depressed mothers tend not to respond effectively to children and to be less attuned to
them. They also tend to respond in a more negative manner. The mothers' behavior and
modeling of affect may produce similar responses in infants.

Answer to Question 2

Sarah illustrates selective mutism. She is probably also quite shy and experiences social
anxiety in settings outside her home.
