Dynamic‐maturational Model of Attachment and Adaptation Versus Abc+d Assessments of Attachment in Child Protection and Treatment
In this brief response, we commend the commentary authors for joining a dialogue about the future of individual differences in attachment both around person‐specific forensic and clinical issues also around working together to develop theory and coding practices. We point to several areas of explicit and implicit agreement and discuss several misunderstandings. We close with a proposal for future work together, possibly using the only set of vide…
Ensuring Implementation Fidelity of a 10-Week Home Visiting Program in Two Randomized Clinical Trials
Promoting birth parents' relationships with their toddlers upon reunification
Permanency outcomes for toddlers in child welfare two years after a randomized trial of a parenting intervention
The Longitudinal Link Between Parenting and Child Aggression
Randomized trial of Promoting First Relationships
Intervention Effects on Morning and Stimulated Cortisol Responses among Toddlers in Foster Care
Toddlers in child welfare often have a dysregulated stress response. We tested whether toddlers with caregivers randomized to a 10‐week attachment‐based intervention, Promoting First Relationships (PFR; J.F. Kelly, D. Sandoval, T.G. Zuckerman, & K. Buehlman, 2008) would show postintervention change in stimulated salivary cortisol patterns during a research home visit involving a separation–reunion procedure, as compared to a condition including c…
Are infant attachment patterns continuously or categorically distributed? A taxometric analysis of strange situation behavior
Contemporary attachment research is based on the assumption that at least three types of infant attachment patterns exist: secure, avoidant, and resistant. It is not known, however, whether individual differences in attachment organization are more consistent with a continuous or a categorical model. The authors addressed this issue by applying P. E. Meehl's (1973, 1992) taxometric techniques for distinguishing latent types (i.e., classes, natura…

Multigenerational Coresidence and Childrearing Conflict
We examine the associations among multigenerational coresidence, intrafamilial conflict over childrearing, and parenting stress in 190 young adolescent mothers at 6, 12, and 24 months postpartum. Analyses assessed the association between coresidence and conflict on parenting stress in 2 ways. To investigate associations between coresidence and conflict at specific points postpartum, 3 cross-sectional analyses were conducted. To assess the associa…
Roles of living arrangements and grandmother social support in adolescent mothering and infant attachment
We examined the roles of social support from adolescents' mothers and living arrangements in 197 adolescent mother-infant pairs. Major observational measures were teaching interactions, Home Observation for Measurement of the Environment (HOME) scores, and infant attachment security. Adolescents living with neither mothers nor partners had better teaching interactions but lower HOME scores compared with those living with mothers. High mother supp…
