Maltreatment, Negative Expressivity, and the Development of Type D Attachments from 12 to 24 Months of Age.

Barnett, Douglas; Ganiban, Jody; Cicchetti, Dante

Monographs of the Society for Research in Child Development, v64 n3 p97-118 1999

Investigated relationship between children's negative expressivity to the formation of an Insecure- Disorganized/Disoriented, Type D attachment pattern in follow-up of maltreated and nonmaltreated children at 12 and 24 months of age. Found that experiencing maltreatment in infancy was associated with Type D attachment through the toddler years, but that this behavior pattern is not a function of children's negative expressivity.
