%X Social communicative precursors to autism spectrum disorder may influence how infants who are later diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder interact with their social partners and the responses they receive, thus bidirectionally influencing early social experience. This systematic review aimed to identify a developmental timeline for parent每infant interaction in the first 2 years of life in at-risk infants and in emergent autism spectrum disorder, and to examine any parent每infant interaction associations with later social-communicative outcomes. In total, 15 studies were identified investigating parent每infant interaction in infants at familial autism risk (i.e. with an older sibling with autism spectrum disorder). Starting from the latter part of the first year, infants at risk of autism spectrum disorder (and particularly infants with eventual autism spectrum disorder) showed parent每infant interaction differences from those with no eventual autism spectrum disorder, most notably in infant gesture use and dyadic qualities. While parental interactions did not differ by subsequent child autism spectrum disorder outcome, at-risk infants may receive different ＆compensatory＊ socio-communicative inputs, and further work is needed to clarify their effects. Preliminary evidence links aspects of parent每infant interaction with later language outcomes. We discuss the potential role of parent每infant interaction in early parent-mediated intervention
