What do we actually mean by ‘attachment’? How do different caregiving styles impact attachment in children? How do early caregiving experiences impact later development?

The Psychology of Attachment is an essential introduction to attachment, offering an accessible explanation of the theory, unpicking common misunderstandings, and providing a balanced overview of key research findings.

Topics covered include the following:

The development of attachment during the first few years of life
The impact of different caregiving behaviours on children’s attachment relationships
The influence of attachment relationships on children’s behaviour and development
The development of attachment relationships from infancy to adulthood
Attachment in romantic relationships and religion
Attachment-based interventions

This unique book introduces the reader to new ways of thinking about the role of relationships, caregiving, and child development, and the way in which they shape our lives.
