Caroline Gaudreau; Amanda Delgado; Rachel Confair-Jones; Sydney Flambaum; Kathy Hirsh-Pasek; K. Lee Raby; Mary Dozier; Roberta Michnick Golinkoff – Developmental Psychology, 2024
Research suggests foster children are at risk for poor language skills. One intervention, attachment and biobehavioral catch-up (ABC), was shown to successfully improve not only young foster children's attachment to their parents, but also their receptive vocabulary skills (Bernard et al., 2017; Raby et al., 2019). Given that language acquisition…

Hammarlund, Mårten; Granqvist, Pehr; Forslund, Tommie – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2021
Prior research indicates links between parents' experiences of interpersonal trauma and emotion-interpretation difficulties, and between such difficulties and child attachment insecurity and disorganization. Although mothers with mild levels of intellectual disability (ID) are at heightened risk for trauma and emotion-interpretation difficulties,…

M. Pasco; Oosterman, Mirjam; Aviezer, Ora; Cummings, E Mark – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2021
An unsettled question in attachment theory and research is the extent to which children's attachment patterns with mothers and fathers "jointly" predict developmental outcomes. In this study, we used individual participant data (IPD) meta-analysis to assess whether early attachment networks with mothers and fathers are associated with…

Rajan S. Hayre; Carlos Sierra Hernandez; Natalie Goulter; Marlene M. Moretti – Child & Youth Care Forum, 2024
Background: Research has demonstrated that parent-child attachment security and school connectedness (SC) are protective factors against substance use, depression, and suicidality during adolescence. However, past research has examined these factors independently, and little is known about how attachment security and SC work in conjunction to…

Diniz, Eva; Brandão, Tânia; Koller, Silvia – Early Child Development and Care, 2021
Adolescent motherhood tends to occur among vulnerable backgrounds, with increased environmental stressors which might jeopardize the quality of mother-infant interaction.

Objective: Adolescents and young adults are at risk for non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) and suicidal behavior. This study examined intrapersonal (depressive symptoms, self-criticism) and family (perceived family functioning, parenting style, parental attachment) factors associated with reported history of NSSI in a college sample. Method:…

Konijn, Carolien; Colonnesi, Cristina; Kroneman, Leoniek; Lindauer, Ramón J. L.; Stams, Geert-Jan J. M. – Child & Youth Care Forum, 2021
Background: Stability in foster care is paramount, since it enables children with a history of maltreatment to experience secure attachment relationships, and decreases the risk for behavioral and emotional problems when growing up. Objective: We investigated whether foster care interventions play a role in enhancing foster placement stability, in…

Lachman, Anusha; Niehaus, Dana J. H.; Jordaan, Esme R.; Leppanen, Jukka; Puura, Kaija; Bruwer, Belinda – Early Child Development and Care, 2021
Infant mental health is strongly connected to an infant's relationship with a responsive, warm, and available caregiver. However, maternal mental illness reduces a mother's ability to detect and respond to changes in her infant's expressions and communication, which may have important consequences for infant attachment and emotion regulation. The…
