Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Psychobiological Attachment Theory (PAT) (Kraemer, 1992) provides a way of thinking about caregiver-infant relationships for use in clinical practice. This manuscript describes how the theory translates into a frame of reference that can be used in practice within the context of natural environments. A discussion of the theoretical base, function/dysfunction criteria, postulates regarding change, and presentation of an evaluation guide, provides a practical tool for use in early intervention practice.
