Attachment Theory And Social Workers: Assessing Quality Of Care Received By Children

Abstract: 8 pages in length. The lack of love, attention and guidance children receive during childhood has a direct correlation with unattached disorders and attachment theory, concepts that highlight "the lifelong requirement for close affectional bonds with others" (Sable, 1995, p. 334). Social workers utilize attachment theory as a means by which to assess quality of care children receive, looking closely for a number of variables that may lead to creating an unattached child such as abuse, neglect and inadequate parenting skills. Bibliography lists 12 sources.
