  • Title: DMM assessments of attachment and adaptation: Procedures, validity and utility.
    Author: Farnfield S, Hautamäki A, Nørbech P, Sahhar N.
    Journal: Clin Child Psychol Psychiatry; 2010 Jul; 15(3):313-28. PubMed ID: 20603420.
    Abstract:
    This article gives a brief over view of the Dynamic-Maturational Model of attachment and adaptation (DMM; Crittenden, 2008) together with the various DMM assessments of attachment that have been developed for specific stages of development. Each assessment is discussed in terms of procedure, outcomes, validity, advantages and limitations, comparable procedures and areas for further research and validation. The aims are twofold: to provide an introduction to DMM theory and its application that underlie the articles in this issue of CCPP; and to provide researchers and clinicians with a guide to DMM assessments.
