Barnett, Douglas; Ganiban, Jody; Cicchetti, Dante – Monographs of the Society for Research in Child Development, 1999
Investigated relationship between children's negative expressivity to the formation of an Insecure- Disorganized/Disoriented, Type D attachment pattern in follow-up of maltreated and nonmaltreated children at 12 and 24 months of age. Found that experiencing maltreatment in infancy was associated with Type D attachment through the toddler years,…
