Opis

This volume presents a new theory on attachment that broadens its range to ages beyond infancy, to many cultures and to endangered populations. The intent is to provide new theory and methods to better understand human variation in interpersonal and cultural self-protective strategies. Quality of attachment has been a key variable in developmental research during the last two decades. Even though attachment is relevant to all cultures and humans of all ages, the majority of research has focused on middle class infants in Anglicized cultures. The expansion of the attachment classificatory system beyond its roots in infancy and to a broad range of cultures differentiates this volume from other work on attachment.

Recenzje

"... Featuring contributions by developmental attachment researchers worldwide, the book is expansive in its scope as well as its depth, drawing from studies as extensive and far reaching as the different cultures from which they originate... A rich compendium of studies, accompanied by apt analyses that may potentially anticipate the direction of attachment studies, The Organization of Attachment Relationships is a work that is invaluable for its thorough examination of what comprises the foundations of the field, and how our perceptions of culture influence the paradigm of attachment theory..."
--Dr. Jacqueline A. Carleton’s & Emily Ho, European Association for Body Psychotherapy Newsletter
