Abstract
Social learning in infancy is known to be facilitated by multimodal (e.g., visual, tactile, and verbal) cues provided by caregivers. In parallel with infants' development, recent research has revealed that maternal neural activity is altered through interaction with infants, for instance, to be sensitive to infant-directed speech (IDS). The present study investigated the effect of mother- infant multimodal interaction on maternal neural activity. Event-related potentials (ERPs) of mothers were compared to non-mothers during perception of tactile-related words primed by tactile cues. Only mothers showed ERP modulation when tactile cues were incongruent with the subsequent words, and only when the words were delivered with IDS prosody. Furthermore, the frequency of mothers' use of those words was correlated with the magnitude of ERP differentiation between congruent and incongruent stimuli presentations. These results suggest that mother-infant daily interactions enhance multimodal integration of the maternal brain in parenting contexts.

One typical modification of adults' interaction style is infant-directed speech (IDS), which is characterized by the features of specific prosodic patterns such as higher pitch, greater pitch variations, longer pauses, and a more rhythmic, slower tempo when compared to adult-directed speech (ADS)<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b1">1</xref><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b2">2</xref><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b3">3</xref>. IDS has the function of drawing infants' attention<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b4">4</xref><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b5">5</xref><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b6">6</xref>, promoting emotional interaction<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b7">7</xref>, and facilitating language acquisition in infancy<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b8">8</xref><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b9">9</xref><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b10">10</xref><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b11">11</xref>. Importantly, the behavioral modification of caregivers is multimodal in nature, including visual, auditory, and tactile information<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b12">12</xref>. For example, mothers use pointing gestures to a target object, coupled with IDS<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b13">13</xref>. These multimodal cues are often demonstrated with redundant temporal synchrony among several modalities (i.e., multimodal motherese), which emphasizes the salient scenes in the environment, and facilitates infants' learning<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b14">14</xref><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b15">15</xref><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b16">16</xref>. Multimodal interaction plays the important role of making ambient references and intentions clear, and encouraging smooth interaction between mothers and infants.</p><p>Although parents have been shown to modify their behaviors, it is still unclear how such experiences affect the cognitive and neural functions of caregivers. Recent neuroscience research has revealed that parenting experiences alter the brain activity of mothers. For example, mothers with preverbal infants showed enhanced cortical activation in the auditory dorsal pathway of the language areas (Broca's and Wernicke's areas) during the perception of IDS, whereas fathers and non-parents did not show enhanced activity in these areas<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b17">17</xref>. These results suggest that daily experiences of vocalization and hearing speech feedback of IDS enhanced mothers' brain activities in these areas, which are considered to reflect the processing of phonological information. However, the previous research focused only on the phonological aspects of IDS perception, and we do not know whether multimodal information processing is enhanced or modulated by parenting experiences.</p><p>The aim of the present study is to reveal whether and how mothers' interactions with infants affect mothers' neural processing of multimodal information in the context of parenting behaviors. Specifically, we focused on auditory and tactile multimodal information processing. Auditory information, especially verbal cues, are quite important for word learning in infancy. Auditory cues enable mothers to convey referential information, which directs infants' attention to specific objects or to specific aspects of the environment<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b18">18</xref><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b19">19</xref>. Furthermore, tactile cues (e.g., hugging, touching, and kissing) are important signals of interaction between mothers and infants<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b20">20</xref>. Tactile cues are often combined with verbal cues. For example, mothers often use baby talk including mimetic words as infant-directed speech<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b21">21</xref>, and provide their toddlers (aged around 2.5 years) with tactile experiences accompanied by tactile-related onomatopoeia words in an IDS manner<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b22">22</xref> (e.g., having infants touch a soft blanket and saying “fuwa-fuwa”—Japanese onomatopoeia referring to something soft—in a high-pitched voice).</p><p>In order to investigate the integration process of tactile-auditory information, we applied a multimodal semantic priming paradigm<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b23">23</xref><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b24">24</xref> (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f1">Figure 1</xref>). The paradigm consisted of priming a tactile stimulus (prime) followed by an auditory linguistic stimulus (target). Participants were required to respond by choosing the word identical to the target stimuli. These two kinds of stimuli (tactile prime and auditory target) were semantically either congruent or incongruent. Target stimuli occurred in one of two prosodic conditions: IDS and ADS. We measured event-related potentials (ERPs) in mothers and non-mothers and analyzed the data collected during the presentation of the target stimuli. The ERPs of mothers and non-mothers were compared between the conditions of congruency (congruent or incongruent) and prosody (IDS or ADS).</p><p>We predicted that mothers' ERPs would show enhanced sensitivity to the congruency of the stimuli, particularly when they were hearing IDS prosody. This is because mothers are assumed to have more experience than non-mothers with multimodal interaction with infants in an infant-directed speech manner. To further support this hypothesis, we also tested the correlation between mothers' ERP responses and their reported frequency of use of tactile-related words during their daily interactions with their infants.</p><sec disp-level="1" sec-type="results"><title>Results</title><sec disp-level="2"><title>ERP Response of Mothers and Non-mothers</title><p>We focused on the results obtained from the middle frontal region (Fz), where the group differences of interest were most evident.

We conducted correlation analysis between the frequency of mothers' target word use and the effect of audio-tactile congruency on ERPs. The effect of audio-tactile congruency was defined as the ERP differentiation between congruent and incongruent conditions in both ADS and IDS prosodies; mean amplitude in the ADS-incongruent condition minus that in the ADS-congruent condition for ADS prosody, and mean amplitude in the IDS-incongruent condition minus that in the IDS-congruent condition for IDS prosody.

The early component (N1) did not provide a significant correlation in either prosody.

We found that only the group of mothers showed differences in ERP amplitudes between the IDS-congruent and IDS-incongruent conditions for N1 latency. This sensitivity to the mismatch between the tactile and verbal stimuli was observed when the tactile-related words were presented with IDS prosody, but not with ADS prosody. Contrary to mothers, the ERPs of the non-mother group did not show the specific sensitivity to the incongruity between the verbal and tactile stimuli with IDS prosody. The auditory N1 component is considered to be associated with the processing of sensory information such as frequency and intensity of a stimulus<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b25">25</xref>. The present finding of N1 modulation after the semantic mismatch of the audio-tactile stimuli is likely to reflect multisensory integration reported with similar latency in a recent ERP study using naturalistic stimuli<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b26">26</xref>.</p><p>Furthermore, we found mother-specific ERP responses in middle P2 latency; again only the group of mothers showed the different ERP amplitude between congruent and incongruent stimuli, and only with IDS prosody, whereas the non-mothers group did not show any significant differences between stimuli. The P2 component is assumed to reflect the processing of phonological categorization, being related to the neural representations of multimodal categorization<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b27">27</xref><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b28">28</xref>. These results suggest that mothers' modulated ERPs in the IDS condition (i.e., different ERP amplitudes according to the congruency of word and tactile stimuli) are related to the processing discrimination of multimodal categorization between tactile and verbal cues.</p><p>There are some reasons why different ERP modulation between mothers and non-mothers were observed in early-to-middle latency (N1 and P2). One possibility is that mothers are more skilled at detecting the incongruity of multimodal events than non-mothers. However, both groups showed congruency effects in the left frontal (F3) region, regardless of prosody (<xref ref-type="table" rid="t1">Table 1</xref>). In other words, the audio-tactile integration process itself was not different between the two groups. Furthermore, mother-specific ERP responses emerged in the IDS prosody condition, not with ADS prosody. These results provide an interesting insight into the functional mechanism of human parenting behavior. Recent studies have suggested that parenting behavior is related to the activation of orbitofrontal regions<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b29">29</xref>, which are considered to have the function of evaluating social rewards and decision-making<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b30">30</xref>. During mother-infant interactions, mothers are required to monitor infants' state and condition, and to respond to and cope with infants' signals quickly. In the present study, participants had to detect and discriminate multimodal congruency. It is possible that verbal cues with IDS prosody motivated mothers to respond selectively to the IDS stimuli, and to evaluate the congruency between tactile and verbal cues, resulting in group differences in early-to-middle latency.</p><p>Our data support the hypothesis that one factor influencing mother-specific ERP modulation might be mothers' experiences of speaking tactile-related words to their infants. Correlation analysis revealed that, in the P2 and N400 components elicited from mothers, the difference in amplitudes between the IDS-incongruent and IDS-congruent cues was positively correlated with the frequency of mothers' use of tactile-related words in daily interactions with their toddlers. Again, this effect was observed only in the IDS condition but not in the ADS condition, nor in other regions. We may say that mother-specific ERP responses are an ‘experience-dependent effect.' One adult study showed that P2 amplitude is enhanced by the speech training of syllables<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b31">31</xref>. The training effect might facilitate mothers' response to IDS stimuli, especially in the incongruent condition, resulting in a larger differential ERP response to IDS prosody.</p><p>The middle-to-late component showed relatively clear correlation with the subjective evaluation of the mothers, compared to the single component in the early latency because, in general, the middle-to-late component reflects higher-order conscious processing. In particular, the processing of semantic and category-related information is represented as N400 amplitude, which is an important neurophysiological index for semantic memory organization and conceptual learning<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b32">32</xref><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b33">33</xref><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b34">34</xref>. Mothers who often use tactile-related words could have greater accessibility to the semantic meanings of tactile-related words, and they showed larger differential ERPs between IDS-congruent and IDS-incongruent conditions in the late latencies. It is interesting, though, and deserves further investigation that the neural activity of each time scale and the level of multi-modal information processing was related to parenting behavior. It is also important to determine how experience affects neurophysiological responses at different latencies in more detail with other groups, such as childcare workers, grandparents or fathers.</p><p>In sum, we found that mothers showed larger ERP responses to IDS-incongruent relative to IDS-congruent stimuli at middle frontal electrodes, whereas non-mothers did not show differential responses. The multimodal congruency effects specific to IDS were related the frequency of using tactile related-words in daily interactions with infants. The results suggest that mother-infant multimodal interaction in daily life enhances mothers' selective neural responses to multimodal information within the parenting context, which might facilitate social cognitive development in infancy.</p></sec><sec disp-level="1" sec-type="methods"><title>Methods</title><sec disp-level="2"><title>Participants</title><p>Seventeen mothers (mean age = 32.56 ± 3.76 years, range 25–41 years) parenting toddlers (8 boys, mean age = 20.8 ± 1.65 months, range 19–23 months), and seventeen non-mothers (17 females, mean age = 22.4 ± 2.74 years, range 20–31 years) participated in the study. All participants were neurologically typical, right-handed Japanese speakers, and they were paid for participation. All gave informed consent according to the procedures approved by the Ethics Committee of Web for the Integrated Studies of the Human Mind, Japan (WISH, Japan). Some participants came to the experimental laboratory with their infants. During this time, infants were allowed to explore the room and to play freely in another space with an assistant experimenter. Data from an additional eight mothers and four non-mothers had to be excluded from the subsequent analysis due to muscle artifacts (one mother), extensive eye movement (three mothers), technical problems (three mothers and three non-mothers), infants' crying (one mother), and the lack of participants' attention to the task (one non-mother).</p></sec><sec disp-level="2"><title>Stimuli</title><p>The following three textures were selected as tactile stimuli for the present experiment: fake fur, sand paper, and leather. Each tactile stimulus (length: 3 cm; width: 2 cm) was attached on a plane surface. Tactile stimuli were placed in a custom-made box so that participants could not see the tactile stimuli (length: 23 cm; width: 31 cm; height: 27 cm). Through an opening in the front (length: 9 cm; width: 11 cm), participants were instructed to put their right hands into the box. They had their right index finger fixed with a band to restrict their body movements (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="s1">Supplementary Figure S2</xref>). The second experimenter sat by the box and presented tactile stimuli manually through an opening at the back of the box (length: 20 cm, width: 27 cm).</p><p>As auditory stimuli, we prepared three tactile-related Japanese onomatopoeias as follows: /fuwa-fuwa/ (something soft), /tsuru-tsuru/ (something smooth), and /zara-zara/ (something rough and hard). These words were selected from a pilot questionnaire given to mothers, which asked how frequently they use tactile-related words with their infants. Final stimuli consisted of three high frequency words in both general and IDS use. The stimuli were recordings of two mothers speaking each word in two prosodic conditions: (i) IDS prosody, in the presence of their toddlers (aged two years) and (ii) ADS prosody, directed at an adult (an experimenter, aged 25 years). The auditory stimuli consisted of a total of 12 stimuli (3 words × 2 prosodic conditions × 2 mothers). Words were recorded at a 22.05 kHz sampling rate (in 16-bit monaural) using a digital recorder in a soundproof chamber.</p><p>The auditory stimuli were analyzed for the following parameters: average fundamental frequency (F0), pitch maximum (F-Max), frequency range (F-range), and duration. Pitch and duration analyses of the recordings were conducted using Adobe Audition. Statistical analyses were then conducted using Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The analyses, shown in the <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="s1">supplementary information</xref> (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="s1">Supplementary Table S3</xref>), indicated that the F0 and F-Max of the auditory stimuli in IDS were significantly higher than those in ADS. F-range of the IDS stimuli was marginally higher than ADS stimuli. Duration was not different between IDS and ADS stimuli because each IDS sample was cut into short single words for use with the ERP paradigm. In order to ensure that IDS stimuli sounded like ‘infant-directed speech,' another group of non-parents scored how child-directed (1. Not-at-all (adult-directed) to 7. Very childish) auditory stimuli sounded. IDS stimuli were scored to be more childish than ADS stimuli (<italic>t</italic> = 3.38, <italic>p</italic> = .01). The intensity of the auditory stimuli was adjusted across stimuli by equalizing the root mean square power of all sound files. These stimuli were presented to the subjects at around 62.50 dB (SPL) sound pressure level.</p></sec><sec disp-level="2"><title>Procedure</title><p>Each trial was comprised of a tactile stimulus (prime) and a subsequent auditory target stimulus (target). The target stimuli were tactile-related words spoken in an IDS (50%) or ADS (50%) manner, which were either semantically congruent (50%) or semantically incongruent (50%) with the priming stimuli. Thus, there were four experimental conditions: ADS-congruent (25%), ADS-incongruent (25%), IDS-congruent (25%), and IDS-incongruent (25%). The second experimenter rubbed participants' right index finger with the priming stimulus within 1000 ms of the presentation of a fixation point on the screen. Following a delay interval ranging between 500 and 600 ms, the auditory target was presented for 650 to 850 ms. After target presentation, two words were presented on the screen; one was the target word which had been presented as auditory stimuli and the other was a distractor word semantically unrelated to the auditory stimuli. Participants were instructed to indicate as quickly and accurately as possible which word on the screen they had just heard presented (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f1">Fig. 1</xref>). To indicate their decision, participants had to press a button with their left middle or left index finger. The purpose of this task was to ensure that participants actively attended to the target stimuli.</p><p>Each experimental session consisted of four blocks, each comprised of 96 trials. Trial order was randomized within each block, with each auditory stimulus presented equally often in combination with a congruent and an incongruent tactile stimulus. In order to ensure that participants understood the procedure, participants performed a practice session composed of six trials before participating in the experimental sessions. The procedure in the practice session was the same as that of the experimental trials except for the absence of priming. All visual stimuli including the fixation point and the prompt for the responses in each trial, as well as the instructions for the task, were presented on a 22-in CRT monitor (RDT223BK, MITSUBISHI).

Impedances were measured prior to and following EEG recording. Before recording, impedances were below 50 kΩ. All recordings were initially referenced to the vertex and later re-referenced to the average of all channels. In off-line analysis, EEG data were digitally filtered using a 0.3–30 Hz band-pass filter. The data were segmented into 1000 ms epochs time-locked to the onset of the auditory stimulus (target) with a 100 ms pre-stimulus baseline period. Artifacts were screened with automatic detection methods as follows: segments containing eye blink (80 μV threshold within 20 ms in the frontal region), eye movement artifacts (55 μV threshold), and channels with amplitudes exceeding ±80 μV were excluded from the averaging. Segments including more than ten bad channels were also excluded from averaging. Additionally, EEG records were edited for motor artifacts such as body movement based on visual inspection.

Mean amplitude for each condition at each time point was calculated. As a preliminary analysis, we conducted ANOVAs with prosody (2: ADA/IDS) and congruency (2: congruent/incongruent) as within-subjects factors at each time point. To avoid the detection of spurious differences among conditions, we considered a time range of 7 consecutive time points (28 ms) of p-values < 0.05 to indicate a significant effect. We set the following three periods for the analysis: N1 (120–180 ms after stimulus onset), P2 (200–300 ms after stimulus onset), and N400 (300–500 ms after stimulus onset). Mean amplitude in each period was computed for each condition. These variances were analyzed by mixed measures ANOVAs with prosody (2: ADS/IDS), and congruency (2: congruent/incongruent) as within-subjects factors, and group (2: mothers/non-mothers) as a between-subjects factor.</p></sec></sec><sec disp-level="1"><title>Author Contributions</title><p>Y.T., K.O. and M.M.-Y. designed the research.
