Attachment theory and research: What should be on the core curriculum for child and family social workers
Attachment theory is one of the core theories proposed for child and family social work, but concerns have been raised regarding misunderstandings and misapplications. Misinformation about attachment is widespread, and texts and teaching on attachment theory often emphasise aspects of the theory that have limited value for applied practice while other elements with greater practice value are often overlooked. As an international group of social w…
Maternal mentalizing and quality of interactive behavior with their infant in the first year postpartum: A meta-analysis
Maternal mentalizing is associated with early mother-infant interaction quality. • Mentalizing assessment method (offline/online measure) does not moderate the association. • Maternal socioeconomic risk status is a significant moderator of the association. The quality of parent-infant interaction is crucial for infant development, and the postpartum period is considered particularly important for subsequent developmental pathways. Parental mental…

Institutionalisation and deinstitutionalisation of children 1: A systematic and integrative review of evidence regarding effects on development
The infant disorganised attachment classification: Patterning within the disturbance of coherence
Since its introduction by Main and Solomon in 1990, the infant disorganised attachment classification has functioned as a predictor of mental health in developmental psychology research. It has also been used by practitioners as an indicator of inadequate parenting and developmental risk, at times with greater confidence than research would support. Although attachment disorganisation takes many forms, it is generally understood to reflect a chil…
Disorganized attachment in infancy: A review of the phenomenon and its implications for clinicians and policy-makers
Disorganized/Disoriented (D) attachment has seen widespread interest from policy makers, practitioners, and clinicians in recent years. However, some of this interest seems to have been based on some false assumptions that (1) attachment measures can be used as definitive assessments of the individual in forensic/child protection settings and that disorganized attachment (2) reliably indicates child maltreatment, (3) is a strong predictor of path…
Filming disorganized attachment
This essay critically explores the role of film in shaping conceptualizations of attachment. It focuses on how the influential ‘disorganized/disoriented attachment’ classification of infant behaviour emerged as a consequence of film technologies and has subsequently been mummified by the way these media have been interpreted. In this way, the essay examines how tensions between the readability and unreadability of a child’s gesture on film have c…
Traumatic Experience and Somatoform Dissociation Among Spirit Possession Practitioners in the Dominican Republic
Recent studies in African contexts have revealed a strong association between spirit possession and severe trauma, with inclusion into a possession cult serving at times a therapeutic function. Research on spirit possession in the Dominican Republic has so far not included quantitative studies of trauma and dissociation. This study evaluated demographic variables, somatoform dissociative symptoms, and potentially traumatizing events in the Domini…
Salivary α-Amylase Reactivity to Infant Crying in Maltreating Mothers
Disorders of Extreme Stress
In this chapter we review the concepts of stress and trauma and describe conditions within the American Psychiatric Association's (APA) Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders–Fourth Edition (DSM-IV; APA, 1994, 2000) that include trauma as an etiological criterion (i.e., acute stress disorder and posttraumatic stress disorder or PTSD), as well as disorders strongly associated with extreme stress and trauma—namely, the dissociative a…
