Autonomic Function in the Neonate:

Abstract
The human infant was stimulated repetitively with a standardized stimulus, thus setting a complex chain of central and peripheral receptors and effectors into motion. This approach has provided information regarding the capacities of infants, in general, to restore their cardiac rates to prestimulus levels. Individual infants appear to differ in regard to both the extent and consistency of this capacity. This has been viewed within the general framework of homeostasis and may have relevance to the prediction of other physiological and psychological parameters of behavior.
