- Attachment goes to court: child protection and custody issuesPublication . Forslund, Tommie; Granqvist, Pehr; Van IJzendoorn, Marinus; Sagi-Schwartz, Avi; Glaser, Danya; Steele, Miriam; Hammarlund, Mårten; Schuengel, Carlo; Bakermans-Kranenburg, Marian J.; Steele, Howard; Shaver, Phillip R.; Lux, Ulrike; Simmonds, John; Jacobvitz, Deborah; Groh, Ashley; Bernard, Kristin; Cyr, Chantal; Hazen, Nancy; Foster, Sarah; Psouni, Elia; Cowan, Philip A.; Pape Cowan, Carolyn; Rifkin-Graboi, Anne; Wilkins, David; Pierrehumbert, Blaise; Tarabulsy, George M.; Cárcamo, Rodrigo; Wang, Zhengyan; Liang, Xi; Kazmierczak, Maria; Pawlicka, Paulina; Ayiro, Lilian; Kabali, Tamara Chansa; Sichimba, Francis; Mooya, Haatembo; McLean, Loyola; Veríssimo, Manuela; Gojman-de-Millán, Sonia; Moretti, Marlene M.; Bacro, Fabien; Peltola, Mikko; Galbally, Megan; Kondo-Ikemura, Kiyomi; Behrens, Kazuko Y.; Scott, Stephen; Fresno, Andrés; Spencer, Rosario; Posada, Germán; Cassibba, Rosalinda; Barrantes-Vidal, Neus; Palacios, Jesús; BARONE, LAVINIA; Madigan, Sheri; Jones-Mason, Karen; Reijman, Sophie; Juffer, Femmie; Pasco Fearon, R.; Bernier, Annie; Cicchetti, Dante; Reijman, Sophie; Cassidy, Jude; Kindler, Heinz; Zimmermann, Peter; Feldman, Ruth; Spangler, Gottfried; Zeanah, Charles; Dozier, Mary; Belsky, Jay; Lamb, Jason; Duschinsky, RobbieAttachment theory and research are drawn upon in many applied settings, including family courts, but misunderstandings are widespread and sometimes result in misapplications. The aim of this consensus statement is, therefore, to enhance understanding, counter misinformation, and steer family-court utilisation of attachment theory in a supportive, evidence-based direction, especially with regard to child protection and child custody decision-making. The article is divided into two parts. In the first, we address problems related to the use of attachment theory and research in family courts, and discuss reasons for these problems. To this end, we examine family court applications of attachment theory in the current context of the best-interest-of-the-child standard, discuss misunderstandings regarding attachment theory, and identify factors that have hindered accurate implementation. In the second part, we provide recommendations for the application of attachment theory and research. To this end, we set out three attachment principles: the child’s need for familiar, non-abusive caregivers; the value of continuity of good-enough care; and the benefits of networks of attachment relationships. We also discuss the suitability of assessments of attachment quality and caregiving behaviour to inform family court decision-making. We conclude that assessments of caregiver behaviour should take center stage. Although there is dissensus among us regarding the use of assessments o attachment quality to inform child custody and child-protection decisions, such assessments are currently most suitable for targeting and directing supportive interventions. Finally, we provide directions to guide future interdisciplinary research collaboration.
- Configurations of mother–child and father–child attachment relationships as predictors of child language competence: An individual participant data meta‐analysisPublication . Dagan, Or; Schuengel, Carlo; Verhage, Marije L.; Madigan, Sheri; Roisman, Glenn I.; Bernard, Kristin; Duschinsky, Robbie; Bakermans‐Kranenburg, Marian; Bureau, Jean‐François; Sagi‐Schwartz, Abraham; Eiden, Rina D.; Wong, Maria S.; Brown, Geoffrey; Soares, Isabel; Oosterman, Mirjam; Fearon, R. M. Pasco; Steele, Howard; Martins, Carla; Aviezer, OraAn individual participant data meta-analysis was conducted to test pre-registered hypotheses about how the configuration of attachment relationships to mothers and fathers predicts children's language competence. Data from seven studies (published between 1985 and 2014) including 719 children (Mage: 19.84months; 51% female; 87% White) were included in the linear mixed effects analyses. Mean language competence scores exceeded the population average across children with different attachment configurations. Children with two secure attachment relationships had higher language competence scores compared to those with one or no secure attachment relationships (d=.26). Children with two organized attachment relationships had higher language competence scores compared to those with one organized attachment relationship (d=.23), and this difference was observed in older versus younger children in exploratory analyses. Mother– child and father–child attachment quality did not differentially predict language competence, supporting the comparable importance of attachment to both parents in predicting developmental outcomes.
- Sequelae of child maltreatment: Umbrella synthesis of 148 meta‐analyses on the mental health correlatesPublication . Coughlan, Barry; Duschinsky, Robbie; Bakermans‐Kranenburg, Marian J.; Bakkum, Lianne; Skinner, Guy C. M.; Markham, Alfred; Beckwith, Helen; Ijzendoorn, Marinus H. vanBackground: Numerous meta‐analyses have established associations between child maltreatment (CM) and mental health difficulties (MH). However, variation exists between meta‐analyses regarding the magnitude of these predictions. Methods: A systematic, quantitative umbrella synthesis (i.e., meta‐analysis of metaanalyses) was undertaken to describe the associations between various types of CM and MH. Meta‐analyses were included if they examined CM, including but not limited to retrospective reports in adulthood, and MH at any point. Included forms of CM were: physical abuse, emotional abuse, sexual abuse, neglect, and exposure to intimate partner violence. MH outcomes were: externalising problems, internalising problems, thought problems, suicidal distress, substance misuse, and other psychological difficulties. Searches were run in January 2024. Random effects models were created in R version 4.2.0. Results: We analysed and combined effect sizes from 148 quantitative metaanalyses, including 668 effect sizes and over 9.5 million data points. CM was associated with all MH outcomes: (1) externalising problems (r = 0.21; 95% CI = 0.18–0.24; k = 32), (2) internalising problems (r = 0.22; 95% CI = 0.20–0.24; k = 46), (3) thought problems (r = 0.24; 95% CI = 0.21–0.27; k = 38), (4) suicidal distress (r = 0.23; 95% CI 0.18–0.28; k = 19), (5) substance misuse (r = 0.19; 95% CI = 0.13–0.26; k = 13), (6) other psychological difficulties (r = 0.24; 95% CI = 0.20–0.28; k = 50). Associations tend to be of similar magnitude for different forms of CM. Conclusion: CM is robustly associated with MH. A parsimonious explanation for these findings would be a common mechanism(s) or a general psychopathology factor conferring high‐risk for different mental health difficulties following CM. The results possibly question the conventional wisdom that suggests some forms of maltreatment are intrinsically more harmful to mental health than others. However, further work is required to understand how potentially confounding factors (e.g., age, measurement of CM) influence these associations.
