Sociologists found that the effects of institutionalization on infants, i.e. lack of a caring environment, will result in slower development of their mental, physical, and emotional skills. The answer is: True

Sociologists found that although institutions vary, they share common characteristics such as interactions that lack warmth and sensitiveness, and as a result resident children develop poorly both physically and mentally, and they develop poor social-emotional skills. However, if there have been no long-term consequences of institutionalization, those who are adopted at an early age, may develop differently.
