Zusammenfassung Bindung, Sozialverhalten und Selbstkonzept in der Übergangssituation des Schuleintritts Entwicklungspsychologisch ist die Bindung zwischen dem Kind und seinen primären Bezugspersonen grundlegend und richtungsweisend für seine gesunde Persönlich- keitsentwicklung. In dieser Studie wurden die Beziehungen zwischen der Bindungs- repräsentation (erhoben im Geschichtenergänzungsverfahren, Gloger-Tippelt & Kö- nig, 2002) und dem Bindungsverhalten (erhoben in der Fremden Situation für Vorschüler, Marvin & Cassidy, 1992) einerseits und dem Selbstkonzept (Harter Skalen), dem Sozialverhalten und der Bewältigung des Schuleintritts (projektinterner Fragebogen zur subjektiven Einschätzung für Eltern und Lehrer) andererseits un- tersucht. In die Untersuchung wurden 69 Kinder (30 Mädchen, 39 Jungen ) im durchschnittlichen Alter von 6.7 Jahren (3. Messzeitpunkt), sowie ihre Eltern und Lehrer einbezogen. Die Übereinstimmung zwischen den Verfahren zur Erhebung der Bindung lag bei 50%. Bezüglich einer Beziehung zwischen Bindung und der Bewältigung des Schuleintritts ergaben sich für beide Verfahren signifikante Unterschiede für den Bereich Gutes Arbeitsverhalten aus Lehrersicht und der Bindungsqualität. Die Bereiche Veränderung, Belastung und Anpassung in Bezug auf den Schuleintritt zeigten sich als jeweils unabhängig vom Bindungsstil der Kinder. Darüber hinaus gab es keinen signifikanten Zusammenhang zwischen der Bewältigung des Schuleintritts und der Qualität des Selbstkonzeptes der Kinder. Bezüglich des Sozialverhaltens und der Bewältigung des Schuleintritts ergaben sich signifikante Zusammenhänge in Teilbereichen dieser Konstrukte. Zwischen den Bindungsgruppen im Geschichtenergänzungsverfahren und der Qualität des Selbstkonzeptes der Kinder ergab sich kein signifikanter Unterschied. Auf der Verhaltensebene konnten Unterschiede zwischen den Bindungsgruppen in der Höhe des Selbstkonzeptgesamtwertes gezeigt werden. Ein Unterschied zwischen den Bindungsgruppen und dem sozialen Verhalten bestätigte sich sowohl für das Geschichtenergänzungsverfahren als auch für die Fremde Situation. Die signifikanten Ergebnisse beziehen sich hier jedoch nur auf einzelne Teilbereiche des Sozi- alverhaltens und unterscheiden sich zudem in den Verfahren. Zusätzlich ließ sich in vorliegender Untersuchung die zeitliche Stabilität des Selbstkonzeptes, sowie des So- zial- und Problemverhaltens (CBCL) über den Schuleintritt hinweg überprüfen. Summary Attachment, social behavior and self-concept in the transitional situation of school entry In the context of developmental psychology the attachment relationship between a child and its primary caregiver is basic and pioneering for a child`s healthy personal- ity development. The present study investigated the connection between attachment representation (assessed by the attachment story completion task in doll play, Gloger- Tippelt & König, 2002), attachment behavior (using the Strange Situation procedure for pre-school children, Marvin & Cassidy, 1992), self-concept (Self-concept Harter Scales), social behavior and the way of coping with school-start (projectinternal ques- tionnaire for teachers` and parents` subjective point of view) in pre-school and early school age. This study is based on a sample of 69 children (30 girls, 39 boys) at the mean age of 6.7 years (3. point of measurement), their parents and teachers. The cor- respondence between these two methods examining attachment styles was 50 %. Sig- nificant associations between attachment and the way of coping with school-start be- came obvious between the good working behavior in school and childrens` quality of attachment. Change, stress and adaptation in relation to school-start turned out to be independent from childrens` attachment styles in both methods. Furthermore, there was no significant relation between the way of coping with school-start and childrens` self-concepts. With respect to the social behavior and childrens` coping behavior with school-start, only in some of these constructs significant relations became obvious. No significant relation could be found between attachment classifications in the story completion task (GEV-B) and the quality of childrens` self-concepts. Significant rela- tions between the attachment classification groups and the quality of social behavior could be turned out for both methods. Though, in this context, significant results have only been found in some aspects of the social behavior and they have been even dif- ferent for the strange situation and the story completion tasks. In the present study it was also possible to check the stability over time of childrens` self-concepts and so- cial and problem behavior (CBCL) before and after school entry.

  • Contributions of Attachment Theory and Research: a Framework for Future Research, Translation, and Policy
    Development and Psychopathology 25 (2013), 1415–1434 # Cambridge University Press 2013 doi:10.1017/S0954579413000692 Contributions of attachment theory and research: A framework for future research, translation, and policy a a b JUDE CASSIDY, JASON D. JONES, AND PHILLIP R. SHAVER aUniversity of Maryland; and bUniversity of California, Davis Abstract Attachment theory has been generating creative and impactful research for almost half a century. In this article we focus on the documented antecedents and consequences of individual differences in infant attachment patterns, suggesting topics for further theoretical clarification, research, clinical interventions, and policy applications. We pay particular attention to the concept of cognitive “working models” and to neural and physiological mechanisms through which early attachment experiences contribute to later functioning. We consider adult caregiving behavior that predicts infant attachment patterns, and the still- mysterious “transmission gap” between parental Adult Attachment Interview classifications and infant Strange Situation classifications. We also review connections between attachment and (a) child psychopathology; (b) neurobiology; (c) health and immune function; (d) empathy, compassion, and altruism; (e) school readiness; and (f) culture. We conclude with clinical–translational and public policy applications of attachment research that could reduce the occurrence and maintenance of insecure attachment during infancy and beyond. Our goal is to inspire researchers to continue advancing the field by finding new ways to tackle long-standing questions and by generating and testing novel hypotheses. One gets a glimpse of the germ of attachment theory in John tachment security (and insecurity) and ushered in decades of Bowlby’s 1944 article, “Forty-Four Juvenile Thieves: Their research examining the precursors and outcomes of individ- Character and Home-Life,” published in the International ual differences in infant attachment.

  • Empathy in Parents and Children: Links to Preschoolers’ Attachment and Aggression
    ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: EMPATHY IN PARENTS AND CHILDREN: LINKS TO PRESCHOOLERS’ ATTACHMENT AND AGGRESSION Jessica A. Stern, Master of Arts, 2016 Thesis Directed By: Professor of Psychology, Jude Cassidy, Department of Psychology Though theory suggests that parents’ empathy is important for children’s empathic development, the transmission of empathy from parent to child remains poorly understood. The goals of this investigation were to test an intergenerational model of empathy with child attachment as a potential mediating mechanism and to replicate findings linking child empathy to reduced risk for aggression. Eighty-nine preschoolers and their mothers completed measures of parent empathy, as well as child attachment, empathy, and aggression. Parent empathy predicted child empathy, but associations varied by the measure of empathy employed. Attachment did not mediate the association between parent and child empathy, although secure attachment predicted greater child empathy. Child empathy predicted aggression, but the direction of the effect varied by the measure of child empathy and by child sex. Findings shed light on the intergenerational transmission of empathy and highlight the importance of multi-method assessment in the study of empathy.

  • Circle of Security–Parenting: a Randomized Controlled Trial in Head Start
    Development and Psychopathology 29 (2017), 651–673 # Cambridge University Press 2017 doi:10.1017/S0954579417000244 Circle of Security–Parenting: A randomized controlled trial in Head Start JUDE CASSIDY,a BONNIE E. BRETT,a JACQUELYN T. GROSS,a JESSICA A. STERN,a DAVID R. MARTIN,a a b JONATHAN J. MOHR, AND SUSAN S. WOODHOUSE aUniversity of Maryland at College Park; and bLehigh University Abstract Although evidence shows that attachment insecurity and disorganization increase risk for the development of psychopathology (Fearon, Bakermans- Kranenburg, van IJzendoorn, Lapsley, & Roisman, 2010; Groh, Roisman, van IJzendoorn, Bakermans-Kranenburg, & Fearon, 2012), implementation challenges have precluded dissemination of attachment interventions on the broad scale at which they are needed. The Circle of Security–Parenting Intervention (COS-P; Cooper, Hoffman, & Powell, 2009), designed with broad implementation in mind, addresses this gap by training community service providers to use a manualized, video-based program to help caregivers provide a secure base and a safe haven for their children. The present study is a randomized controlled trial of COS-P in a low-income sample of Head Start enrolled children and their mothers. Mothers (N 141; 75 intervention, 66 waitlist control) completed a ¼ baseline assessment and returned with their children after the 10-week intervention for the outcome assessment, which included the Strange Situation. Intent to treat analyses revealed a main effect for maternal response to child distress, with mothers assigned to COS-P reporting fewer unsupportive (but not more supportive) responses to distress than control group mothers, and a main effect for one dimension of child executive functioning (inhibitory control but not cognitive flexibility when maternal age and marital status were controlled), with intervention group children showing greater control.

  • Mary Ainsworth: Insightful Observer and Courageous Theoretician
    To appear in G. A. Kimble and M. Wertheimer (Eds.), Portraits of pioneers in psychology (vol. 5). Hillsdale, NJ: Erlbaum Mary Ainsworth: Insightful Observer and Courageous Theoretician Inge Bretherton University of Wisconsin-Madison Mary Ainsworth’s pioneering work has changed conceptions of infant-mother relationships, and by extension, conceptions of human relationships more generally. As John Bowlby’s major collaborator in the development of attachment theory, she is commonly credited with providing supporting empirical evidence for the theory while Bowlby is regarded as creating its basic framework. This view is too simple. Ainsworth's innovative ap- proach to studying the development of relationships not only made it possible to put some of Bowlby's ideas to empirical test, but her insights expanded the theory itself in fundamental ways. Among her major contributions are the concept of the attachment figure as a secure base from which an infant can explore the world, the identi- fication of patterns of infant-mother attachment as indicators of relationship quality, and the concept of parental sensitive responsiveness to infant signals as precursor to secure attachment. Without this work, attachment the- ory and research would not have attained the importance they currently hold in developmental and social psy- chology. That Ainsworth and Bowlby became collaborators was due to a series of fortunate coincidences, al- though their thinking about personality development had developed along congenial lines before they met. Their first encounter took place when both were in mid-life—after both of their professional careers had been interrupted by military service during the Second World War, but their most creative and original contributions still lay ahead.

    30 Attachment Theory and the Social Work Curriculum Timothy Page Rhonda Norwood Abstract: Attachment theory, as developed by Bowlby and Ainsworth, represented a major departure from the current theories of human development of the time, par- ticularly in its rejection of the major tenets of psychoanalytic theory and its integra- tion of core ideas from evolution theory and cybernetics (Ainsworth & Bowlby, 1991). Attachment theory posits that a foundational human instinct, the desire to achieve safety and protection through proximity to a protective figure, is responsible for the formation of a special class of life-long affectional bonds, referred to as “attach- ments.” Emotional security is derived to a great extent, according to the theory, from experience with caregivers who are consistently responsive to the developing infant’s expression of attachment behavior toward them. Forty years of empirical research has shown that attachment is a universal characteristic that predicts children’s development of cognitive and social competence, emotional regulation, and positive self-image (Weinfield, Sroufe, Egeland, & Carlson, 1999). Social work educators are currently challenged to better integrate the findings of attachment research into their curricula to reflect more the current state of developmental science. Keywords: Attachment theory, social work theory HISTORICAL CONTEXT OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF ATTACHMENT THEORY The creation of attachment theory, beginning with the work of John Bowlby (1907- 1990) and, later, Mary Ainsworth (1913-1999), was, like all great ideas, as much a product of new intellectual currents as it was an explicit rejection of the old ideas it was intended to replace. Bowlby, a British practicing psychiatrist at the Tavistock Clinic in London, was the originator and major theorist, while his colleague, Ainsworth, an American developmental psychologist, extended and provided the first empirical support for the theory with her observational studies in Uganda and later in the U.S.

    MARY D. SALTER AINSWORTH: TRIBUTE AND PORTRAIT 683 (1999). Psychoanalytic Inquiry, 19, 682-776. Born Mary Dinsmore Salter in 1913, she received her doctorate from the University of Toronto in 1939. John Bowlby by no means introduced her to Mary D. Salter Ainsworth: the concept of individual differences in security: her professor, William Tribute and Portrait Blatz, had already developed a "security" theory (Bretherton, 1992), and her doctoral dissertation was entitled "An Evaluation of Adjustment Based on the Concept of Security". Here she stated that "where family security is lacking, the individual is handicapped by the lack of a secure base from which to work (Salter, 1940, p. 45, italics added by Bretherton, 1992). MARY MAIN, Ph.D. After receiving her doctorate, Mary Salter served in the Canadian Women's Army Corps, obtaining the rank of Major, and once stayed up all night practicing sharp salutes and turns around the corners of her dormitory for her unexpected next day's lead-taking of a full military parade. After the war, and while employed as young faculty at Toronto, she worked with Klopfer on a revision of the Rorschach (Klopfer et al., 1954). MARY AINSWORTH WAS A LIVELY, PHYSICALLY ROBUST WOMAN. She had a notable Mary Dinsmore Salter married Leonard Ainsworth in 1950, and worked liking for parties, dancing, books, music, whiskey, tennis, bridge, with John Bowlby in London from 1950-1953 as a research associate.
