Positive intimate relationships with spouses, relatives and friends are incredibly important to mental health in adulthood. John Bowlby's Attachment Theory shows how relational patterns set early in life affect emotional bonds later in life. This film's focus is on attachment theory as it explains many aspects of personality development from childhood through to adulthood. This film is a companion piece to our very popular 2005 release on Bowlby's colleague, Mary Ainsworth, which was centered largely on the development of attachment relationships in infancy. This film addresses issues related to attachment in later life as people seek to establish new ties and cope with separations and losses. Therapeutic applications of the theory as developed by Dr. Bowlby and others are illustrated, along with new insights that neuroscience brings us to understand the legacy of attachment histories. With Howard Steele, Ph.D. This is a short clip from the film. Further information is available at www.davidsonfilms.com.

  • thanks for the upload  im doing an essay on attachment and its helped me

  • @gigiinparis Bowlby said that children can form primary attachments with whoever is the primary caregiver, this can be seen in situations where children need to be placed in daycare from an early age children can form attachments with the people working in the daycare centre. Bowlby was stating that children need to form attachments at a young age or it can have negative implications in later life. He did not say anything about "Homelessness or vulnerabilty" as he was merely stating facts.

  • How much has to do with breast or bottle feeding and how the child is weaned and then the nurturing over the first few years?

    

  • @gigiinparis umm, you should watch the video again and maybe a third time that why you actually understand.

  • Umm, most mothers have to work! not an option. childsupport: 25% of fathers net equals to homelessness and vulnerability.
