In addition, questions arise that are specifically relevant to high risk
families. For example, what are the limits of touch for providing beneficial
outcomes and could infants in high-risk groups be the ones most benefited
by touch and touch interventions? It would be informative to understand
whether scientists could effectively track the dose/response levels of touch as is necessary for understanding any intervention. In addition, is touch
experienced in the same way for individuals “at risk?” Although Modi and
Glover (1995) have attempted to “view” the experience of touch using fMRIs,
science has not progressed far enough to truly understand the qualitative
experiences derived from touch during development
