Fonagy and colleagues expanded on the concept of metacognitive monitoring to include not only the capacity to think about one’s own mental state but also the ability to reflect on the mental states of one’s attachment figures (Fonagy & Target, 1997). Main’s research had focused on the cognitive appraisal processes in the development of metacognition, Fonagy and his colleagues expanded on this to include both the interpersonal and the intersubjective processes in thinking about one’s own and others’

The origins of Attachment theory can be traced to the influential work of John Bowlby (1958). Bowlby’s work as a psychiatrist in a Child Guidance Clinic in London caused him to consider the significance of the child’s relationship with their mother in terms of their cognitive, emotional and social development. Specifically, it contributed to enthralling his interests surrounding the link between early infant separations with the mother and later maladjustment, leading Bowlby to formulate the Theory

The provision of equality, diversity and inclusive practice can be ensured in relation to change and transition in many ways. During the process of a transition, if the child has additional needs, such as behavioural problems, then the practitioner is going to need to create an individual plan for the child and their family.

Now that he is five this secure attachment could be developing. Words: 407 Part 6: Communication (400 words) What is meant by ‘theory of mind’? Why is it so important in understanding how infants communicate, and how does this relate to the formation of attachments? Why is attachment important in the early years? Gjersoe, N.

When we consider the term attachment we may look to John Bowlby for an explanation who stated that ‘attachment is a deep and emotional bond that connects one person to another through space and time’ this is a great analogy, however what we do know about attachment is that it can be one sided, it is possible for one person to attach themselves or create a bond with a person that doesn’t reciprocate their feelings.

and Steve’s attachment style with their family of origin. Bowlby (1979) deliberated that in-order for babies to survive, there is a biological drive to seek proximity to the primary caregiver. An individual’s ability to respond, process elements of their dynamic environment and store these internal representation in their neurobiology to aid survival, forms the premise of attachment theory (Perry & Pollard, 1998). There are four attachment styles: secure attachment, avoidant attachment, ambivalent

relationship. Moreover, since the relationships between mothers and daughters are important, mothers should avoid the factors that can break down their relationship together. Some of those factors are the negative impacts, lack of respect, love, and attachment. Therefore, these factors can lead daughters viewing their mothers differently and can break their relationship. A mother is the first person that a daughter

The Influence of Childhood Attachment on Moral Leadership In order to understand how there is a childhood attachment on moral leadership, we need to first understand how and where the influences come from and what stages in development they may occur. The fundamental development occurs in three stages. Theses stages are physical, cognitive and psychosocial in which all human life goes through. While these stages inherently create human functions, intelligence and social and other interpersonal traits

previous research has suggested that individuals’ attachment status, individuals who have Facebook–related conflict, individuals who were in shorter term relationships, and individuals who have certain ideas of what normal behavior is when getting to know someone on the website can end up predicting negative relationship outcomes (Clayton, Nagurney, & Smith, 2013). For example, Nitzburg and Farber (2013) conducted a study on the role of attachment in impacting adults’ outlooks about social media websites
