Attachment Measures - Other Approaches

Other Approaches

With older toddlers, children, and teens, three different techniques to determine their state of mind with respect to attachment are used. The first is the Story Stem in which children are asked to complete and describe stories having been given the 'stem' or beginning. The second method asks children to respond to pictures. The third involves asking children actual questions about their attachment relationships.

Famous quotes containing the word approaches:

    Someone approaches to say his life is ruined
    and to fall down at your feet
    and pound his head upon the sidewalk.
    David Ignatow (b. 1914)

    These were not men, they were battlefields. And over them, like the sky, arched their sense of harmony, their sense of beauty and rest against which their misery and their struggles were an offence, to which their misery and their struggles were the only approaches they could make, of which their misery and their struggles were an integral part.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)
