The study of first-time mothers' parenting behavior encompasses a wide range of aspects, examining how these behaviors vary across different cultures and the extent to which they can be considered an organized and coherent system. It also delves into the nature of infants' psychological constructs, structures, functions, and processes, recognizing that these characteristics also exhibit cultural variations.

One of the unique features of this field is its combination of intra-cultural psychology with cross-cultural study, providing a comprehensive understanding of parenting behaviors and infant development across diverse contexts. Key studies from around the world have been conducted, comparing urban and rural environments in Argentina, examining monolingual and bilingual child-rearing practices in Belgium, contrasting a city and a kibbutz in Israel, exploring the traditional differences between the north and south in Italy, and examining the contrast between an Appalachian and metropolitan state in the United States.

Through these diverse studies, the book sheds light on the theory, research, and practical applications of this multi-faceted research, offering valuable insights from an expert in the field. It serves as a valuable resource for researchers, educators, and professionals interested in understanding the complexities of parenting behavior and infant development in different cultural contexts.
