Emotional disturbances in children and adolescents from the attachment theory perspective

Emotional disturbances in children and adolescents may be explained basing on different aetiological theories. One of them is the attachment theory created by Bowlby. It stresses the relationships between the characteristic of children's relations with caregivers and their behaviours, which might be described as symptoms in certain circumstances. Attachment behaviours; should not be treated as the only explanation of disturbances but rather as a risk factor. Another advantage of the theory is that it might be helpful in the integration of different theories referring to the aetiology of emotional disturbances, taking into consideration both intrapsychic and interpersonal factors.
