41 (a) What about when he/she becomes emotionally upset? Can you recall a specific example? Indicate that you want an example by providing a reasonably long time to think of one. What did you do when that happened?

What did you feel like doing? What did you feel like? If the subject becomes extremely anxious and cannot recall an example, then proceed to part (b).

(b) What about when he/she has been physically hurt a little bit? Can you give an example and describe what happened? Be sure to find out what the subject felt like and did.

(c) Has your child been sick at all? Give me an example. Again, ask what this experience was like for the parent and how the parent responded to the child affectively and behaviorally.

(10) Tell a favorite story about your child, perhaps one you've told to family or friends. I'll give you a minute to think about this one. If the subject is struggling, you may tell them that this doesn't have to be the favorite story, only a favorite. What do you like about this story?

(11) Are there any experiences which your child has had which you feel may have been a setback for him/her?

Why do you think so? Indirectly, we're trying to determine whether the parent feels responsible in any way for the setbacks. Therefore, be sure to give time to respond before moving on to the more direct questions which follow. Knowing what you know now, if you started all over again with your child, what would you do differently?

Give some time to respond.

The Working Model of the Child Interview is a structured interview to assess parents' internal representations or working models of their relationship to a particular child. The setting of the interview should be comfortable enough to allow for attention to the questions posed and a relaxed atmosphere that permits the opportunity for reflection.

The introductory section on developmental history is optional, depending upon the setting and purposes for which the interview is used. Otherwise, the interviewer should follow the outline. The interview allows for some follow-up probes, particularly those that encourage the individual to elaborate on responses.

Vital to scoring is that the interviewer not make interpretive comments, since we are interested in the degree to which individuals make these links on their own. Requests for clarification about contradictions may be made, but only for purposes of ascertaining whether the individual maintains contradictory views of the infant and only after allowing the individual an opportunity to recognize, acknowledge, and resolve the contradictions on his/her own. Essentially, the purpose of the interview is to have individuals reveal as much as possible in a narrative account of their perceptions, feelings, motives, and interpretations of a particular child and their relationship to that child.

2

42 WORKING MODEL OF THE CHILD INTERVIEW

We are interested in how parents think and feel about their young children. This interview is a way for us to ask you about child's name and your relationship to him/her. The interview will take us about an hour to complete.

1. I'd like you to begin by telling me about your child's development.

(a) Let's start with your pregnancy. I'm interested in things like whether it was planned or unplanned, how you felt physically and emotionally, and what you were doing during the pregnancy (working, etc.). In a follow-up probe, find out how much the baby was wanted or not wanted. Had you ever been pregnant before? When did the pregnancy seem real to you? What were your impressions about the baby during pregnancy? What did you sense the baby might be like? The idea is to put the subject at ease and to begin to obtain a chronological history of the pregnancy. Additional probes may be necessary to make sure that the individual is given a reasonable opportunity to convey the history of their reactions to and feelings about the pregnancy and the baby (which may or may not be the same).

(b) Tell me about labor and delivery. Give some time to respond before proceeding. How did you feel and react at that time? What was your first reaction when you saw the baby? What was your reaction to having a boy/girl? How did your family react? Be sure to include husband/partner, other siblings.

(c) Did the baby have any problems in the first few days after birth? How soon was the baby discharged from the hospital? Did you decide to breast-feed or bottle-feed? Why?

(d) How would you describe the first few weeks at home: feeding, sleeping, crying, etc. This is often a very important time because it may set the "emotional tone" of the baby's entrance into the family, particularly if the delivery and perinatal period were routine.

3

43 (e) Tell me about your baby's developmental milestones such as sitting up, crawling, walking, smiling, and talking. Be sure to get a sense of the ways in which the baby was thought to be different, ahead, or behind in motor, social and language development. Did you have any sense of your baby's intelligence early on? What did you think?

(f) Did your baby seem to have a regular routine? What happened if you didn't stay in the routine?

(g) How has the baby reacted to separations from you? Try to get a sense of the baby's reactions at various ages. Were there any separations of more than a day in the first or second year? How did the baby react? How was it for you? How did you feel? What did you do?

(2a) Describe your impression of your child's personality now. Give the subject enough time to respond to this before proceeding to specific descriptors below.

(2b) Pick five words (adjectives) to describe your child's personality. After you have told me what they are, I will ask you about each one. For each one, what is it about him/her that makes you say that?, Then, tell me one specific incident which illustrates what you mean by each word that you chose. You may tell the subject that it is fine to use any of the descriptors they used in response to the general probe above, but do not remind them what they said before you have given them time to recall themselves. Some subjects will have a hard time coming up with five descriptors. If you feel that the subject cannot come up with five, then move on. The numbers are less important than the descriptions.

4

44 (3a) At this point, whom does your child remind you of? In what ways? When did you first notice similarity? If only one parent is mentioned, ask, in what ways does the child remind you of (the other parent)? The following questions should be asked whether or not the parents have been mentioned. Which of his/her parents is your child most like now? In what ways is your child's personality like or unlike each of his/her parents?

(3b) Are there any family characteristics on your side you see in your child's personality? What about (other parent's) side?

(3c) How did you decide on your child's name? Find out about family names, etc. How well does the name seem to fit?

(4) What do you feel is unique, different, or special about your child compared to what you know of other children?

(5) What about your child's behavior now is the most difficult for you to handle? Give a typical example.

(a) How often does this occur? What do you feel like doing when your child reacts this way? How do you feel when your child reacts this way? What do you actually do?

(b) Does he/she know you don't like it? Why do you think he/she does it?

(c) What do you imagine will happen to this behavior as your child grows older? Why do you think so?

5

45 (6a) How would you describe your relationship to your child now? Give time to respond.

(6b) Pick five words (adjectives) to describe your relationship. For each word, describe an incident or memory that illustrates what you mean.

(7a) What pleases you most about your relationship with your baby? What do you wish you could change about it?

(7b) How do you feel your relationship with your child has affected your child's personality? Give ample time for subject to respond to this.

(7c) Has your relationship to your child changed at all over time? In what ways? What's your own feeling about the change?

(8) Which parent is your child closest to now? How can you tell? Has it always been that way? Do you expect that to change (as the child gets older, for instance)? How do you expect it to change?

(9) Does your baby get upset often? Give subject some time to respond before proceeding to specific queries.

What do you do at these times? What do you feel like doing when this happens? What do you feel like at these times?

6

46 (a) What about when he/she becomes emotionally upset? Can you recall a specific example? Indicate that you want an example by providing a reasonably long time to think of one. What did you do when that happened?

What did you feel like doing? What did you feel like? If the subject becomes extremely anxious and cannot recall an example, then proceed to part (b).

(b) What about when he/she has been physically hurt a little bit? Can you give an example and describe what happened? Be sure to find out what the subject felt like and did.

(c) Has your child been sick at all? Give me an example. Again, ask what this experience was like for the parent and how the parent responded to the child affectively and behaviorally.

(10) Tell a favorite story about your child, perhaps one you've told to family or friends. I'll give you a minute to think about this one. If the subject is struggling, you may tell them that this doesn't have to be the favorite story, only a favorite. What do you like about this story?

(11) Are there any experiences which your child has had which you feel may have been a setback for him/her?

Why do you think so? Indirectly, we're trying to determine whether the parent feels responsible in any way for the setbacks. Therefore, be sure to give time to respond before moving on to the more direct questions which follow. Knowing what you know now, if you started all over again with your child, what would you do differently?

Give some time to respond.

7

47 (12) Do you ever worry about your child? What do you worry about?

(13) If your child were to be one particular age, what age would you choose? Why?

(14) As you look ahead, what will be the most difficult time in your child's development? Why do you think so?

(15) What do you expect your child to be like as an adolescent? What makes you feel this way? What do you expect to be good about this period in your child's life? What do you expect to be not so good about this period in your child's life?

(16) Think for a moment of your child as an adult. What hopes do you have about that time? What fears do you have about that time?

In a follow-up probe, you may ask what the interview was like for the subject.

8

48 MODIFIED WORKING MODEL OF THE CHILD INTERVIEW

1a) Describe your impression of the child’s personality now. Give the person enough time to respond to this before proceeding to the specific descriptors below. If parent is confused by the question, you can add something like – “Just describe his/her typical ‘ways’ or how s/he is in a nutshell.”

1b) Pick five words or adjectives to describe your child’s personality. After you have told me what they are, I will ask you about each one. For each one, what is it about him/her that makes you say that? I will ask you to tell one specific incident which illustrates (shows) what you mean by each word that you chose. If the interviewee asks, you may say that it’s fine to use any of the descriptors s/he used in response to the general personality question above, but do not remind them about what those descriptors were. Phrases instead of words are fine (but do not make that part of the instructions). It is important not to rephrase what the interviewee says, but to use the words or phrases they stated. Some people have a hard time coming up with five words. Give them a “few more minutes” to think. If you feel they cannot come up with five, then move on. The numbers are less important than the descriptors. It does not matter if the words are synonyms. If the person cannot give five, you can say “That’s fine, if you think of another, we can come back to it.”

Write down the five words or phrases they give you, and when the interviewee is done, go back and get the specific example for each word or phrase.

(Probe each word for a specific incident/memory: 1. “The first (second, etc.) word (phrase) that you used to describe (your child’s) personality was ______. Tell me about a specific incident or memory that shows why you picked ______to describe him/her.” 2. If the interviewee gives a non-specific example (e.g., “She always does that, or when we go to the park,” then say, “Tell me about one specific time that shows why you picked _____to describe him/her; that stands out when child was ______).” 3. If you still don’t get a specific event, then ask, “When was the last time your child was______.…Tell me about that time. If after those 3 requests you don’t get a specific example, move on to the next word. You must use judgment about whether to do this for all 5 adjectives. If someone has only given generic examples rather than specific examples for the first 3 adjectives and is irritated about the probing, you may have to move on.

2a) At this point, who does your child remind you of? -In what ways? -When did you notice the first similarity? If only one, or neither parent is mentioned, ask: -In what ways does the child remind you of (the other parent)? The following questions should be asked whether or not the parents have been mentioned. -Which of his/her parents is your child most like now?

2

49 -In what ways is your child’s personality like yours? Not like yours? In what ways is his/her personality like his/her other parent’s (e.g., dad’s)? Not like his/her other parent’s personality?

2b) Are there any family characteristics on your side you see in your child’s personality? -What about (other parent’s) side? If the interview says s/he doesn’t know, move on. If s/he only mentions physical characteristics, probe again for personality.

2c) How did you decide on your child’s name? Find out about family names, etc. How well does the name seem to fit?

3) What do you feel is unique, different, or special about your child compared to what you know of other children? Give ample opportunities for the interview to respond—this is a question to linger on rather than move through quickly. So, if there is a very brief response (or no response) consider saying things like, “That’s ok, take your time,” or “Do you want to add anything else?”

4) What about your child’s behavior now is the most difficult for you to handle? Pause before moving to the next probe. Give a typical example. If the interviewee says “Nothing,” say, “Well, for most parents there’s at least one thing that’s challenging to deal with…what about for you?’ If still nothing, try, “Ok, tell me something that’s just not as easy for you to handle.” If you still get no example of behavior, skip the following probes and go to question 5a).

a) How often does this occur? -What do you feel like doing when your child reacts this way? -How do you feel on the inside when your child reacts this way? -What do you actually do?

b) Does he/she know you don’t like it when she…? -Why do you think he/she does it?

a) What do you imagine will happen to this behavior as your child grows older? -Why do you think so?

5a) How would you describe your relationship to your child now?

3

50

Give adequate time to respond before moving to the next probe.

5b) Pick five words (adjectives) to describe your relationship. Just like we did with personality, I’ll go back and ask you for a specific incident or memory for each word that illustrates what you mean. Again, accept whatever they say, then go through each word or phrase and use the same 3-probe approach used for the personality words as needed to get a specific memory.

6a) What pleases you most about your relationship with your baby? -What do you wish you could change about it? Some general probes that you can ask for either question include, “Tell me more.” “How so?” If interviewee says, “Nothing,” to the second question, probe “Is there anything that you wish were a little bit different? Only probe once here.

6b) How do you feel your relationship with your child has affected your child’s personality? Be sure to give ample time to respond to this question. If the parent/caregiver says “Nothing,” probe [only] once “Are you sure?”

6c) Has your relationship to your child changed at all over time? If the parent/caregiver says “No,” you can follow up with, “Not at all?” If the parent does not think the relationship has changed at all, move on to question 7. -In what ways? -What’s your feeling about the change?

7) Which parent/parent figure is your child closest to now? -How can you tell? -Has it always been that way? -Do you expect that to change (as the child gets older, for instance)? -How do you expect it to change?

8) Tell a favorite story about your child, perhaps one that you’ve told to family or friends. I’ll give you a minute to think about this one. If the person is struggling, you may tell them that this doesn’t have to be the favorite story, only a favorite, just one they really like. You want an answer! -What do you like about this story?

9) Think for a moment about your child as an adult. What hopes and fears do you have about that time?

I. Administration and Set-up

A. List of freeplay toys 1. Include toys which support pretend play.

2. a. Currently I include the following toys:  Doll and bottle  Some puppets (human)  Doctor’s kit  Two phones  Plates and food

b. If the child is under 18 months of age include:  stuffed animal  farm house set or toy farm animals  some large trucks or vehicles

c. If the child is 40 months or older include:  Small dolls (doll house type dolls)  Tool kit

3. Do NOT include toys: a. which lend themselves to teaching type interactions, as this will happen during the task portion of the Crowell b. that make loud noises as this makes scoring difficult. c. Large toys (e.g., doll house, kitchen sets) because this interferes with clean-up and if left in the room tends to act as a distracter. Large toys also interfere with video-taping as often times the toys block the view of the child and/or caregiver.

54 CAREGIVER-CHILD STRUCTURED INTERACTION PROCEDURE (CROWELL) Sherryl Scott Heller, PhD Institute of Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Tulane University Health Sciences Center

B. Room Description 1. It is best if the room is minimally furnished. At our clinic the room never has more than two adult chairs, the toy task cabinet, and a few “educubes” (small child size chairs). Tables are not put in the room as they tend to obscure the view of the child and parent. 2. The Crowell tasks are stored in a cabinet which can be locked. The key is given to the parent during the instruction phase of the procedure. 3. The freeplay toys are kept in a large toy bucket and removed from the room after clean-up. If left in the room they tend to distract the child and parent from the tasks. 4. We have 3 “educubes” in the room. These are large plastic blocks, each block can be used as a table or as a child size chair when turned on it’s side (these are available through J.L. Hammet, Lakeshore, or Beckley Cardy catalogs). 5. There is a telephone in the room which allows the clinician or researcher to call into the room and give instructions during the procedure. The procedure tends to run more smoothly when complete instructions are given before the Crowell starts and then again at each transition.

C. General Reminders

1) Parents are given basic instructions prior to the session and each task is demonstrated (see video tape for specific task instructions). During the session the clinician calls into the room on a telephone to give specific instructions between each transition. 2) Task 1 and 2 should be somewhat below the child's developmental level, ideally the child should be able to do the task with little or no assistance. Tasks 3 and 4 should be above the child's level so that they need the parent's assistance to complete the task. 3) The length of time allowed for each task varies. If the child finishes the task quickly allow time for the task to be done 1 or 2 more times. If time is up and: a) the dyad is close to completing the task allow time for task completion and joy sharing. b) the child is getting frustrated than end the task. c) the task is far from complete than end the task. 4) If the child becomes highly distressed during the separation than the separation is ended early. The parent returns to the room as instructed in section E below. The separation is never shorter than 20 seconds and never longer than 3 minutes.

D. General Instructions

Instructions given to the parent at the start of the session: "I will call you between each task and remind you what to do, however I will review everything with you now so you will have an idea of what is going to happen. First I want you to play with (child's name) and the toys here (indicate freeplay toys), then I will call you and ask you to have him/her clean up all of the toys. You can help him/her if you think he/she needs it, but see how much he/she can do on his/her own. I will then call and ask you to do each of the following tasks with him/her. Some of these tasks will be easy for him/her and some will be more difficult, you may help him/her if you think he/she needs it (review the bubbles and 4 tasks). After the fourth task I will call and ask you to leave the room. After leaving the room you may come back into the monitoring room and watch him/her. After a few minutes I will ask you to return to the room and the two of you will play for a few more minutes. If (child's name) becomes to upset we will end the separation early".

II. Scoring and Interpretation There are 2 methods used to score or interpret the Crowell procedure. One is for clinical purposes and the other is for research purposes. Below the behaviors looked for from a clinical perspective are listed. The coding scheme used for research follows.

A. Clinical Scoring 1. Free play a. Level of comfort with one another Does the dyad seem comfortable with each other or does one or both partners seem tense or uncomfortable with this type of interaction? Remember to take into account that the caregiver may be somewhat apprehensive about being observed and videotaped. b. Familiarity with play and fun together Does this type of interaction seem familiar to the dyad, is this the way they behave outside the clinic? c. Task oriented versus child- or fun-oriented Does the dyad, especially the caregiver, seemed focused on what they perceive to be the task at hand or is the dyad more focused on enjoying each others company and having a good time? d. Partnership versus solidarity. Does the dyad spend most of its time interacting with each other or playing together. Or does the dyad spend most of its time playing separately with little or no interaction?

2. Clean-up a. Compliance Does the child comply with the request of the caregiver. If the child does not how is this handled? Are the caregiver’s expectations of the child developmentally appropriate? Non-compliance is not necessarily bad – as long as the caregiver is able to manage it appropriately and it is clear that the caregiver is in charge of the interaction.

b. Cooperation Do the two work together to clean-up or is the child expected to do it all on his/her own? How do the two function as a team?

c. Transitions How does the child handle transitions? If the child has difficulty with them is the parent able to help the child re-focus on the next task? Is the parent able to anticipate that the child is going to have difficulty with the transition and assist him/her with future transitions?

8

59 CAREGIVER-CHILD STRUCTURED INTERACTION PROCEDURE (CROWELL) Sherryl Scott Heller, PhD Institute of Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Tulane University Health Sciences Center

3. Bubbles a. Positive and shared affect You are interested in whether or not the child references the adult during the task and shares his/her excitement with the caregiver. You also are interested in whether or not the parent matches or supports the child’s expression of joy.

b. Enjoyment and enthusiasm This task pulls for joy and excitement from the child. It is concerning if the child does not exhibit joy and/or enthusiasm in regards to this task.

4. Four structured tasks a. Increasing difficulty The tasks are ordered so that they increase in difficulty. The last two tasks are intentionally above the child’s developmentally level. How does the dyad manage this increase in difficulty? Does the parent increase his/her support of the child? Is the child able to use the parent’s help?

b. Reliance for help Does the child turn to the caregiver for assistance when he/she needs it or is the child unable to rely upon the parent for assistance?

c. Staying focused Does the child stay on task? Does the parent help to keep the child on task? Is the parent able to do this in a supportive and developmentally appropriate manner?

c. Maintaining balance (anticipating frustration) Does the child get frustrated? Is the parent able to diffuse or anticipate this frustration?

5. Separation

a. Stress This is designed to be a stressful situation for the child. Does the caregiver simply leave the room or does the caregiver prepare the child for this separation? How does the child respond to the separation?

b. Activate attachment system

9

60 CAREGIVER-CHILD STRUCTURED INTERACTION PROCEDURE (CROWELL) Sherryl Scott Heller, PhD Institute of Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Tulane University Health Sciences Center

This episode is designed to activate the attachment system so that when the parent returns the child’s response to the parent should be to seek proximity and comfort.

c. Self-soothing/coping behavior Is the child able to manage his/her level of distress or does the child become so distressed that the separation must be ended early.

6. Reunion a. How does the dyad reunite Does the child seek out the caregiver – either physically or verbally (greeting or inviting the mother to play)? Does the child ignore or respond minimally to the caregiver’s return? Does the child seek out the parent and than respond to the parent in an angry or rejecting manner?

b. Response to distress How does the caregiver respond to the child’s distress – does the caregiver minimize the child’s distress? Does the caregiver acknowledge and respond to the child’s distress? Does the caregiver’s response match the child’s level of distress?

c. Congruence between separation and reunion Does the child’s response in the reunion match his/her level of distress during the separation? Is the child able to be comforted by the caregiver?

c. Resumption of play/exploration Is the child able to return to play by the end of the reunion? Does the child’s level of play match that of his/her play pre-separation or is the level of play muted? Does the child remain near the parent and/or refuse to return to play?

61 BABY CROWELL PROCEDURE (Modified) January 2017

Tulane University

Instructions to give caregivers are noted in bold font.

Baby Crowells take place on a mat or a blanket – not in a high chair or infant seat. Baby must be able to sit up independently to accomplish a Baby Crowell (age range is generally 6 – 12 months—should not be used if child can walk independently).

The first episode is Free Play; toys for Free Play are listed below.

“Once you are in the room, please just make yourself and your baby comfortable. You can spend time with your child as you normally would.”

1) 5 minutes: Free play with caregiver/parent and baby (“Play as you normally would”) 2) Clean-up: Caregiver is told to “place the toys in the bucket and push the bucket to the door. Child can “help” as appropriate.” 3) Parent puts the toys in the bucket and pushes the bucket to the door. Team member removes bucket from room. On the phone: Ask caregiver/parent to “take out the bubbles and blow them for the baby.”

4) 2 minutes: caregiver/parent blows bubbles for the baby

On the phone: Ask caregiver to “get out 1st task and teach the baby the task.” (See list of teaching tasks, below)

5) 3 minutes: first teaching task

On the phone: Ask caregiver to “get out 2nd task and teach the baby the task.” (See list of teaching tasks)

6) 3 minutes: second teaching task

On the phone: “Please do whatever you feel is necessary to make your baby comfortable and then come out of the room. The baby will stay in the room for a couple of minutes.”

7) 2 minutes: separation (caregiver/parent ) (No more than 20 seconds if the child is very distressed)

62

In the monitoring room: When time has elapsed (or if baby is distressed), walk caregiver/parent to the door. Instructions: “Please knock on the door, call the baby’s name, and then step all the way into the room. We would like you to spend some time with your baby doing what comes naturally. You will have several minutes alone with your baby.”

8) 3 minutes: reunion (caregiver/parent returns)

FREE PLAY TOYS FOR BABY CROWELL

 Dolls and bottles (various ethnicities, both genders)  Stuffed animal  Activity Boards (but not with many and whistles, which make hearing interaction difficult)  Farm house set or farm animals  Large trucks or vehicles

Toy are placed in big bucket with rope handles

TEACHING TASKS FOR BABY CROWELL

1) Balls in the bowl – you will need a clear plastic bowl and several plastic balls (see toysrus.com “Pound a Ball” by Castle Toys for the type of balls needed). Have the parent remove the balls from the bowl and then teach the baby to put the balls back in the bowl.

2) Tower of 2 – you will need 4 basic blocks. Have parent build a tower of two and then teach the baby how to build his/her own tower. You can put the blocks in a plastic container.

3) Blocks in the Bucket – remove the lid from the sorter and have the parent teach the baby to put 6 shapes (e.g., 2 squares, 2 triangles, and 2 circles) into the bucket (see toysrus.com for “Baby’s First Blocks” by Fisher Price). You can also use basic blocks in a clear plastic container for this task.

4) Ball – have the parent roll the ball to the baby and teach the baby to roll it back. Use a regular rubber playground ball that is not too large for the baby to handle (about 8” - 9”). Balls that are developmentally-oriented and involve using all the senses can be found at Discovery Toys.

5) Tower of 3 – same as Tower of 2; use 6 blocks instead of 4.

63 6) Nesting Task – place the smallest object in the toy inside 2 - 3 “layers” and ask the parent to have the baby locate it. See store.babycenter.com for either the “Discover Sounds Stackin’ Pans” by Little Tikes or the “Three Little Pigs Playset” by Lizzybee.

Choose tasks based on baby’s age (and developmental level). Higher numbers = harder tasks. Choose two tasks for each Baby Crowell. Vary the chosen tasks. For example, don’t ask baby to put balls in the bowl and then balls in the bucket or Tower of 2 and then Tower of 3.

64 Post Crowell Procedure Questions from the COSI (Hoffman, Cooper and Powell)

“I’m now going to ask you several questions about the experience that you and (name of child) just had together in the room (upstairs, downstairs, down the hall, in the next room, etc)”.

1. What was it like for you to participate in the experience you just completed with him/her?

2. You were asked to leave (name of child) in the room (one or two) time(s). What do you think that was like for him/her (each time?) (It is acceptable for parent to give a general description of both separations or be specific for each.) What was that like for you (each time?).

3. Most parents have never had a chance to see their child from behind a one-way mirror. a) While you stood there watching (name of child) was there anything that stood out for you? b) What do you think he/she needed during the time that you were watching him/her? 4. 5. You came back into the room (two times): a)What do you think that was like for (name of child) each time? [Note: It is acceptable for parent to give a general description of both reunions or be specific for each.] b)What was the reunion like for you (each time?) [Note: Same rules apply as above.] 1) In either of the reunions, did (name of child) show you that she/he needed comfort from you? 2) Decision tree: a) [If he/she showed a need for comfort:] 1) What did you do? 2) How did it feel when he needed comfort from you? 3) Is this the way he/she usually shows you he/she needs comfort? Or: b) [If he/she didn’t seem to require comfort:] 1) How does (name of child) show you when he/she need’s comfort from you? 2) What is it like for you when she/he shows you that he needs comfort from you?

6. When you asked (name of child) to pick up the toys, could you describe what happened? a) What do you think that was that like for her/him? b) What was it like for you?

Developed By: Jane Clarke, PhD

Check or circle the number next to each statement that best describes the caregiver’s capacities to support his/her infant’s/child’s development according to the scoring criteria. Safety 1. 1. Caregiver creates a physical sense of safety that allows for infant’s/child’s 1 2 3 4 developmental progress and emotional repair. Regularity and Stability 2. Caregiver maintains regularity and consistency of visits and/or treatment 1 2 3 4 sessions, which provides opportunity to support developmental interactions with infant/child. Responsivity 3. Caregiver responds to infant/young child in a contingent way, reading 1 2 3 4 infant’s/child’s cues accurately, and responding promptly to cues. 4. Caregiver follows the infant’s/child’s lead by focusing on what he/she is 1 2 3 4 looking at, asking for, playing with, or trying to do. 5. Caregiver stimulates infant/child at pace, rhythm and timing that allows 1 2 3 4 infant/child to respond. Co-Regulation Strategies 6. Caregiver is able to anticipate and modulate the infant/child’s state of arousal 1 2 3 4 reactivity (e.g., from hyperarousal, hypoarousal or state lability to an organized state; not under-focused or hypervigilant) to support his/her development. 7.
