An 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 (M[subscript age]: 19.84 months; 51% female; 87% White)…

Deneault, Audrey-Ann; Hammond, Stuart I.; Madigan, Sheri – Developmental Psychology, 2023
Although numerous individual studies have attempted to link child-parent attachment and prosociality, a systematic picture of that relationship requires a meta-analytic approach that considers different dimensions of prosociality and potential moderators. The current meta-analysis examined 41 studies drawn primarily from North America and Europe…

Clarke, Daniel Wade – British Journal of Guidance & Counselling, 2023
In this autoethnography I explore the impact of my father's alcohol dependency on my relationship with him and implications for my own recovery from alcohol-related harm. Sketching, layering and poetic interludes help to move around the hyphenated space of son-father relations showing the wounds associated with his alcohol ab/use. The writing…

This meta-analytic study examined the associations between child-father attachment in early childhood and children's externalizing and internalizing behavior problems. Based on 15 samples (N = 1,304 dyads), the association between child-father attachment insecurity and externalizing behaviors was significant and moderate in magnitude (r = 0.18,…

Kissgen, Ruediger; Franke, Sebastian; Jorjadze, Nino; Roth, Bernhard; Kribs, Angela – International Journal of Developmental Science, 2021
This study examines the infant-father attachment in infants born preterm (<?1500?g at birth and/or?<?37 weeks gestation) in comparison to full-term infants. The infant-father attachment was assessed using the Strange Situation Procedure at a (corrected) age of 15 months. We found at least half of preterm and full-term infants (50.0% and…

M. Pasco; Oosterman, Mirjam; Aviezer, Ora; Cummings, E Mark – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2021
An unsettled question in attachment theory and research is the extent to which children's attachment patterns with mothers and fathers "jointly" predict developmental outcomes. In this study, we used individual participant data (IPD) meta-analysis to assess whether early attachment networks with mothers and fathers are associated with…

Deneault, Audrey-Ann; Bureau, Jean-François; Yurkowski, Kim – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Past meta-analyses show that both child-mother and child-father attachment insecurity are independently and jointly associated with more externalizing behaviors in children. Little is known, however, on the ways that different types of insecure attachment independently and jointly predict the development of externalizing behaviors over time.…

Bumbacco, Carly; Scharfe, Elaine – Journal of College Student Retention: Research, Theory & Practice, 2023
Despite considerable evidence that attachment theory is a valuable framework for understanding educational outcomes, associations between attachment representations, academic burnout, engagement, and drop-out have been largely overlooked. In this study, 290 first-year post-secondary students completed attachment, academic burnout, and academic…

Gambin, Malgorzata; Wozniak-Prus, Malgorzata; Konecka, Alicja; Sharp, Carla – European Journal of Developmental Psychology, 2021
Emotion regulation abilities play a crucial role in child and adolescent development. Thus, there is a need to investigate correlates and predictors of the emotion regulation abilities in adolescents. Previous studies have shown that attachment security plays an important role in the development of adaptive emotion regulation strategies; however,…
