Title: Understanding and promoting attachment. Author: Wilson SL. Journal: J Psychosoc Nurs Ment Health Serv; 2009 Aug; 47(8):23-7. PubMed ID: 19681518. Abstract: Interest in early relationships has led to increased use of terms such as attachment disorder, attachment problems, and attachment therapy when describing behavioral/emotional regulation in young children. Unfortunately, such terms are vague and lead to clinical confusion and diagnostic inaccuracies. This article will introduce attachment theory, with a discussion of reactive attachment disorder and implications for treatment of children who have problems with social-emotional development.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
