Abstract The aim of this article is to present a bibliographic review of the study of affective relationships in the first year of life based on qualitative analysis of theoretical and investigative articles published during the last four decades. The articles' selection adopts as a criterion the index of citation that denotesrelevance and wide circulation of the theoretical and methodological postulates in this field of knowledge. The reviews of the articles are systematized in a descriptive grid that allows to identify the constituent elements of a publication and the internal consistency of the conceptualization. Reviews of investigative articles include the design review, data collection techniques, and analytical units used by researchers. The qualitative analysis of systematized reviews, establishes some polarities that structure publications: innate - acquired; Endogenous - exogenous; General domain development - specific domain development; Macro changes - micro changes. In methodological terms, experimental designs - situational designs in specific cultural contexts; direct causal relationship analysis models - multiple relationship analysis models. Simultaneously, these polarities define four perspectives that synthesize the theoretical and methodological affinities of the publications: innatist, ecological-contextual, interactionist and Nonlinear Dynamic Systems (SDNL). In the discussion, we present the matrix of psychological thinking and the conceptions of development that are implicit in each one of the perspectives. Finally, in the conclusions we highlight the researchers' search for models of analysis that establish border dialogues between perspectives to overcome the polarities to understand the complexity of affective relationships in the first year of life. In this effort arise the studies of SDNL to explain the emergence of novelty in the affective-cognitive development of the child from the events of reorganization within the dyadic systems.
