Quality of Attachment and Early Symbolic Play.
Slade, Arietta
Developmental Psychology, v23 n1 p78-85 Jan 1987
Investigated (1) the relationship between the quality of attachment and the development of symbolic play, and (2) differences in the ways mothers of secure and anxious children involved themselves in play. Frequency, duration, and complexity of children's play, along with differences in maternal involvement, were assessed across bimonthly free play sessions. (Author/RH)
