Attachment and selective attention: Disorganization and emotional Stroop reaction time / Leslie ATKINSON in Development and Psychopathology, 21-1 (January 2009)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 21-1 (January 2009) . - p.99-126 Titre : Attachment and selective attention: Disorganization and emotional Stroop reaction time Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Leslie ATKINSON, Auteur ; Eman LEUNG, Auteur ; Susan GOLDBERG, Auteur ; Diane BENOIT, Auteur ; Lori POULTON, Auteur ; Natalie MYHAL, Auteur ; Kirsten BLOKLAND, Auteur ; Sheila KERR, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.99-126 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Although central to attachment theory, internal working models remain a useful heuristic in need of concretization. We compared the selective attention of organized and disorganized mothers using the emotional Stroop task. Both disorganized attachment and emotional Stroop response involve the coordination of strongly conflicting motivations under conditions of emotional arousal. Furthermore, much is known about the cognitive and neuromodulatory correlates of the Stroop that may inform attempts to substantiate the internal working model construct. We assessed 47 community mothers with the Adult Attachment Interview and the Working Model of the Child Interview in the third trimester of pregnancy. At 6 and 12 months postpartum, we assessed mothers with emotional Stroop tasks involving neutral, attachment, and emotion conditions. At 12 months, we observed their infants in the Strange Situation. Results showed that: disorganized attachment is related to relative Stroop reaction time, that is, unlike organized mothers, disorganized mothers respond to negative attachment/emotion stimuli more slowly than to neutral stimuli; relative speed of response is positively related to number of times the dyad was classified disorganized, and change in relative Stroop response time from 6 to 12 months is related to the match-mismatch status of mother and infant attachment classifications. We discuss implications in terms of automatic and controlled processing and, more specifically, cognitive threat tags, parallel distributed processing, and neuromodulation through norepenephrine and dopamine.

Disrupted caregiving behavior as a mediator of the relation between disrupted prenatal maternal representations and toddler social–emotional functioning / Katherine L. GUYON-HARRIS in Development and Psychopathology, 34-3 (August 2022)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 34-3 (August 2022) . - p.755-763 Titre : Disrupted caregiving behavior as a mediator of the relation between disrupted prenatal maternal representations and toddler social–emotional functioning Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Katherine L. GUYON-HARRIS, Auteur ; Sarah M. AHLFS-DUNN, Auteur ; Sheri MADIGAN, Auteur ; Elisa BRONFMAN, Auteur ; Diane BENOIT, Auteur ; Alissa C. HUTH-BOCKS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.755-763 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : disrupted  maternal behavior  prenatal representations  toddler social-emotional functioning  transmission Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The development of maternal representations of the child during pregnancy guides a mother’s thoughts, feelings, and behavior toward her child. The association between prenatal representations, particularly those that are disrupted, and toddler social-emotional functioning is not well understood. The present study examined associations between disrupted prenatal representations and toddler social-emotional functioning and to test disrupted maternal behavior as a mediator of this association. Data were drawn from 109 women from a larger prospective longitudinal study (N=120) of women and their young children. Prenatal disrupted maternal representations were assessed using the Working Model of the Child Interview disrupted coding scheme, while disrupted maternal behavior was coded 12-months postpartum from mother-infant interactions. Mother-reported toddler social-emotional functioning was assessed at ages 12 and 24 months. Disrupted prenatal representations significantly predicted poorer toddler social-emotional functioning at 24 months, controlling for functioning at 12 months. Further, disrupted maternal behavior mediated the relation between disrupted prenatal representations and toddler social-emotional problems. Screening for disrupted representations during pregnancy is needed to facilitate referrals to early intervention and decrease the likelihood of toddler social-emotional problems.
