Dr. Phil Fisher discusses his pioneering work on the effects of early stressful experiences on young children’s development. He explains the importance of responsive and sensitive care in early childhood, and how an absence of nurturing care can have long-lasting negative effects on children’s neurobiological and psychological development. He also discusses why the well-being of parents is essential to the well-being of their young children and highlights the negative impact of unpredictability along with inadequate material conditions on parental well-being and, thus, on child development.Finally, Dr. Fisher describes findings from two projects he runs: the RAPID survey, which has gathered information on parent and child well-being since 2020, and the Filming Interactions to Nurture Development (FIND) program, which uses video coaching to help parents increase positive, responsive interactions with their young children.Relevant WorkRAPID Survey ProjectFilming Interactions to Nurture Development (FIND)About the GuestDr. Phil Fisher is an early childhood researcher, widely recognized for his work on the effects of early stressful experiences on children's neurobiological and psychological development.
