Significance The receipt of high-quality maternal care is an established promoter of optimal neurodevelopment, but the processes by which maternal care influences development remain unclear. Using a cross-species approach, we probe the possibility that predictability of sensory signals from the mother is a process by which maternal behavior influences cognitive circuits within the developing brain. This is in accord with established roles of patterns of sensory information in the organization of visual and auditory systems of the brain during sensitive periods. Our data support the argument that the degree of predictability of maternal sensory signals affects subsequent cognitive function in both rats and humans and suggest that these signals contribute to the shaping of the underlying neural circuits, including the hippocampus.
