Secure base support and sensitive caregiving interactions are predictive of secure attachment. Interventions designed to promote sensitive caregiving have had success in both improving parental behaviors and in increasing levels of attachment security. These interventions are, however, too time consuming and resource intensive to be rolled out to the general population. This study sought to determine if a brief and easy to deliver intervention could be successful in enhancing secure base cognitions in participants. 136 female participants were randomly assigned to either an intervention or control condition, and placed in either a secure script or no script group based on their scores on the Attachment Script Assessment. The intervention group watched a set of videos of mothers and toddlers interacting in three situations (clean-up task, tool-use task, and free play on the playground), with accompanying audio commentary guiding participants' attention to important secure base features of the interactions. The control group watched the same interaction videos but without the commentary. Participants were then asked to comment on six different mother-child interactions of the same situations two days later. Comments made by the participants were scored for secure base knowledge on three separate scales (recognition of the need for exploration, secure base support given by the mother, and taking the child's perspective). The intervention group scored significantly higher than the control group on all three scales. The script group also scored higher than the no script group on all three scales. Furthermore, there was an interaction between the intervention/control groups and the script/no script groups indicating that, although all participants benefited from the intervention, those with secure script knowledge benefitted to a greater degree. These results demonstrate that a brief and economical parenting intervention can be successful, and also illustrate the importance of an individual's existing attachment scripts in determining how they view interactions with children as well as how easily they can apply acquired secure base concepts to new situations."},{"label":"dcterms.available","value":"2017-09-20T16:51:12Z"},{"label":"dcterms.contributor","value":"Waters, Harriet."},{"label":"dcterms.creator","value":"Skinner, Sandra"},{"label":"dcterms.dateAccepted","value":"2017-09-20T16:51:12Z"},{"label":"dcterms.dateSubmitted","value":"2017-09-20T16:51:12Z"},{"label":"dcterms.description","value":"Department of Social/Health Psychology."},{"label":"dcterms.extent","value":"128 pg."},{"label":"dcterms.format","value":"Monograph"},{"label":"dcterms.identifier","value":"http://hdl.handle.net/11401/76803"},{"label":"dcterms.issued","value":"2014-12-01"},{"label":"dcterms.language","value":"en_US"},{"label":"dcterms.provenance","value":"Made available in DSpace on 2017-09-20T16:51:12Z (GMT).
