"Maternal sensitivity" may be the behaviour which links mother and child attachment models. This would, therefore, be a natural target for treatment in attachment interventions. A systematic literature review was conducted to…

Kim, Sung won; Hill, Nancy E. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2015
Extant research on parental involvement in education has been conducted largely without respect to which parent is involved.
