| "text": "Previous studies show that preterm infants are prone to immaturity of neurological development which leads to their sensitiveness toward pain stimulation, and the greater pain they suffer would reflect on crying behavior. If a set of distinctive measures can be identified, it might be possible to differentiate infant cries in the spectrum of normative behavior and cries due to organic pathology. The measures would be helpful for doctors and caregivers to identify if the unknown cries are caused by just infant colic or other more complicated factors. Long-time average spectrum (LTAS) of crying behavior were analyzed in two groups of newborn infants in this study. LTAS was used to analyze the infant's non-partitioned crying episode (NP), as well as the 3 equal-length partitions (P1, P2, P3). First spectral peak (FSP), mean spectral energy (MSE), spectral tilt (ST), and high frequency energy (HFE) were measured.", | |

| "text": "Though infants are not able to talk, they can express their feelings and emotions through crying, facial expression, and body movements. Diseases are able to be discovered by some characteristics in crying behavior (Radhika, Chandralingam, Anjaneyulu, & Satyanarayana, 2012) . For example, different pain stimuli would lead to different fundamental frequencies in infant cry vocalization (Radhika et al., 2012) . If more specific characteristics are found in certain diseases, it would be more effective in prescribing and curing. Sometimes parents can differentiate why their babies cry by their various crying behavior (Soltis, 2004) . As for the way of eliciting cries, Johnston, Stevens, Craig, & Grunau (1993) had proposed two different ways: the heel-stick procedure and injection. In this current study, injection was used as the only standard method of eliciting cries to avoid any nuances that might caused by the different types of pain stimuli. However, even though there are some scientific ways of detecting the pain intensity infants endure, the experience of pain is quite subjective and is not merely related to physiological but also psychological factors (Qiu, 2006) . Moreover, since infants use crying to arouse caregivers' attention, it can be expected that infants' crying behavior differs with and without their caregivers around them (Green, Gustafson, Irwin, Kalinowski, & Wood, 1995) . Usually, the responses from caregivers bring cry behaviors to a halt (Green et al., 1995) . Thus, crying is regarded not only an independent behavior but also plays an important role in social interactions between infants and their caretakers (Green et al., 1995) . Furthermore, crying is a way of drawing other people's attention to help infants get rid of the uncomfortable situation or meet their needs (LaGasse, Neal, & Lester, 2005 ).", | |

| "text": "Because of the immature development of nervous systems caused by premature birth, preterm infants' crying behavior is believed to reveal different characteristics from that of full-term infants whose nervous systems are comparatively well-developed (Goberman & Robb, 1999) . Premature infants are reported to have higher fo in their cry phonation, and it might be due to the immature, shorter vocal folds (Johnston et al., 1993) . Or as Zeskind (1983) stated that high-risk infants are not able to perfectly control their crying behavior and that they tend to react more intensely towards pain stimuli than low-risk infants. Infants react differently to the same stimulus pain whether they are healthy or born at risk. However, while some studies have shown that preterm infants are more sensitive to pain stimuli, others found that some premature infants have less intense reactions towards pain than normal infants (Qiu, 2006) .", | |

| "text": "Based on Goberman and Robb (1999) , a crying episode of infants was defined as the duration of the continuous crying activity, beginning with the first audible cry sound after the pain stimulus, and an episode was completed as soon as the infants stopped crying. The non-voiced parts of a crying episode were first edited out in the cry vocalization, making a \"non-partitioned crying episode\" (Goberman & Robb, 1999) . In this current study, all the inspiratory cry was eliminated from pain stimulus, only the phonatory parts were analyzed. Then, a non-partitioned episode was divided into three partitions with the same length of durations (P1, P2, P3). P1, P2, P3 are regarded as the early, middle, and late sections of the crying episode, respectively, corresponding to the attack, cruise, and subdual phases of a crying episode as suggested by Truby and Lind (1965) . First spectral peak, mean spectral energy, spectral tilt, and high frequency energy were measured. First spectral peak was identified as the first amplitude peak across the LTAS display. Mean spectral energy was measured with the mean amplitude value from 0 to 8000 Hz. Spectral tilt was the ratio of energy between 0-1000 Hz, and 1000-5000 Hz. High frequency energy was the sum of amplitudes from 5000 Hz to 8000 Hz. ", | |

In this current study, although no significant differences could be identified, preterm infants showed higher mean of MSE in non-partitioned episode and the three equidurational crying episodes. This shows that during the cry duration, the preterm infants' laryngeal muscles are tighter and they have a more severe reaction toward pain stimulus. The tighter laryngeal muscles suggest a more intense cry behavior. Moreover, a decrease in MSE could be observed in both full-term and preterm infants.

The ST of full-term infants does not increase over time as mentioned in Goberman and Robb (1999) ; on the contrary, the ST of full-term infants decreases over time. However, the increase of ST can be found in preterm infants.", | |

| "text": "The high frequency energy of non-partitioned and partitioned crying episodes of the two groups are compared and listed in Table 4 . In order to identify if there was significant variation between the two groups, and whether there was significant variation between the three equal-length cry durations (P1, P2, P3) in each group, a two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was performed. No significant term by partition interaction (p > .05) was found. There was no main effect for term (p > .05), stating that there were no significant differences in HFE across the two groups. There was significant main effect for partitions (F = 8.29, p < .05 partition for both full-term infants (F = 3.91, p < . 05) and for preterm infants (F = 4.57, p < .05). There was a significantly higher P1 in HFE than P3 in both infant groups (p < .05). In both groups, HFE decreases over time. The HFE of full-term infants does not change drastically over time; however, in preterm infants, the HFE shows a steep descent. The changes are demonstrated in Figure 5 . HFE in both full-term infants and preterm infants decreases overtime. However, HFE of preterm infants has a wider range, crossing from 1225 to 1807, while the range HFE of full-term infants is about 300. Some of the results in this current study did not match the findings in previous studies. The differences could be due to a few discerning variables. First, although the uni-directional microphone was used in this study, the environmental noises could not be completely controlled because the nurses were required to explain the procedure to the caregivers. Moreover, there was unavoidable overlapping from noises of other infants' cry sound. Once the infant's cry vocalization was overlapped with adults' voice or other infants' cry sound, the partition could no longer be used for further analysis. Second, all the infants receiving injections had their caregivers around them. This caused inevitable interaction between adults and infants, bringing unexpected nuances to the results. Both full-term and preterm infants might use more strength in crying, hoping their caretakers would alleviate their pain. Third, some caretakers tended to soothe the infants as soon as they started crying, which would significantly change the natural cry episode since the soothing and consolation from the caretakers might influence their cry phonation. The infants might feel safe and stopped crying. This might cause incomplete early, middle, and late sections in a cry episode, as Goberman and Robb (1999) mentioned. In further studies, the interaction of infants and their caregivers is probably one of the variables that should be strictly controlled. Moreover, video recording should be implemented in order to identify whether the infants stopped crying spontaneously or their attention was drawn by other things. Lacking complete three sections of cry episode might be the main reason of the discrepancy in the findings of this current study and previous studies.", | |
