A major purpose of the present study is to examine the utility of the Kestenberg Movement Profile (KMP) as a unified modality for the classification and interpretation of non-verbal behavior underlying parent/child interaction. Correspondences between specific patterns of parent and child nonverbal behaviors and established indices of parental stress are examined. These specific patterns of nonverbal behavior are derived from a more encompassing theory-anchored system of movement notation and profiling called the Kestenberg Movement Profile (KMP; Amighi, Loman, Lewis & Sossin, 1999). Subjects were 26 parent-child dyads, children ranging in age from 1 to 4 years. This study utilized video-taped observations of semi-structured parent-child interaction for coding of parent and child nonverbal behaviors, specifically Tension-Flow Attributes, and Bipolar- and Unipolar- Shape-Flow patterns. The broader study incorporates an examination of the reliability of three subsystems of KMP notation and an investigation of predicted correlations between specific movement factors and parent-reported stress. This includes investigation of predicted correspondences between relatively matched or mismatched conjoint parent-child movement repertoires and parent-reported stress levels, and consideration of intergenerational transmission of stress via nonverbal channels. Significant findings reveal that stressed parents are more likely to exhibit deanimated abruptness. Their children are more likely to show a mismatch between affect related safety/danger dynamics and the expression of comfort/discomfort. Furthermore, results show evidence for greater discordance between stressed parents and their children, linking stress with a decrease in attunement. However, many movement factors did not conform to prediction reminding us of the non-mirrored ways children, adapt to parent-stress, and the multiplicity of ways any individual or dyad may respond to stress. Methodological and interpretive challenges, e.g. relatively weak reliability of KMP notation in this study, small sample-size, the high degree to which hypothesized correspondences did not appear, and complex statistical/analytic procedures for nonverbal variables that vary in their degree of affinity to each other (some are polar opposites along unitary dimensions) are discussed in terms of the necessity for cautious interpretation of the current results. Results give rise to discussion of conceptual implications and to specific recommendations for future research utilizing the KMP method.
