Attachment Representations in a Sample of Neglected Preschool-Age Children

Abstract: A number of studies (see Éthier, 1999) have shown that neglect has a deleterious impact on children's development. However, the effect of neglect on a child's internal representations of their family still needs to be investigated. The aim of this study was to examine the attachment patterns observed in a subsample of neglected children as compared with a control group, using a representational assessment method. The overall sample consisted of 74 preschool-age children, with a clinical group comprised of 39 … Show more

“…Most young children want to please the significant adults in their lives starting with their parents. The parent-student relationship forms the basis for the teacher-student relationship (Clegg & Sheard, 2002;Venet, et al, 2007).…”

“…Earlier, it was stated that students with insecure relationships from home found it more difficult to make positive relationships with teachers. However, in these cases teachers need to invest more time and effort into developing relations with these students as they need to replace their current understanding of relationships with a more secure model of attachment that will impact on their education and general development (Venet, et al, 2007).

“…Les influences à l'intérieur et à l'extérieur de chacun de ces systèmes peuvent contribuer à l'apparition ou au maintien des conséquences de la maltraitance, qui se déclinent sur plusieurs plans : cognitif, social, psychoaffectif et physique (Widom, 2014). Par exemple, comparativement à leurs pairs d'âge préscolaire, les enfants maltraités présentent plus souvent un lien d'attachement insécurisé (Venet, Bureau, Gosselin et Capuano, 2007) et des difficultés à reconnaitre et à comprendre les émotions (Sullivan, Bennett, Carpenter et Lewis, 2008). À l'âge scolaire, les enfants victimes de maltraitance sont plus à risque d'intimider et d'être victimes d'intimidation (Shields et Cicchetti, 2001) et à l'adolescence ils commettent davantage de délits liés à l'alcool et aux substances illicites (Chen, Propp, deLara et Corvo, 2011).…”

“…Ce vécu étant émaillé de multiples ruptures, on peut dire que sa sécurité externe ou objective aura été ébranlée, tout autant que son sentiment de sécurité interne ou subjective. Ce double versant, objectif et subjectif, de la sécurité est une condition sine qua non pour un développement socio-affectif harmonieux chez l'enfant [15,42].…”
