Numerous research findings underscore the critical role of communication quality and caregiver interaction during infancy and early childhood in shaping psychological development. The strong emotional bond established between the caregiver and the infant is defined as attachment. The main purpose of this review study is to assess the intervention/support programs developed for parents grounded in Bowlby's attachment theory. In this direction, firstly, the study presents an overview of program content, followed by a review of studies examining their effects during infancy and early childhood. Within the scope of this study Child-Parent Psychotherapy, The Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-up Program, Video-Feedback Intervention to Promote Positive Parenting Program, Circle of Security Parenting Program, and Steps Towards Effective and Enjoyable Parenting Program were discussed. Based on the aims and contents of these programs and the findings of different studies conducted in this direction, the programs were discussed within the framework of mother-child interaction and their developmental effects on the child.

Ebeveynlere Yönelik Bağlanma Temelli Müdahale ve Destek Programlarının Gözden Geçirilmesi

Öz

Bebeklik ve erken çocukluk dönemlerinde, bakım verenle olan iletişimin niteliğinin ve kalitesinin psikolojik gelişim açısından kritik bir faktör olduğunu gösteren birçok çalışma bulunmaktadır. Bebek ile bakım veren kişi arasında kurulan güçlü duygusal bağ ise bağlanma olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Bu gözden geçirme çalışmasının temel amacı, Bowlby’nin bağlanma kuramını temel alan ve ebeveynlere yönelik geliştirilen müdahale/destek programlarının incelenmesidir. Bu doğrultuda öncelikle programların içeriğine ilişkin bilgiler sunulmuş, ardından programların, bebeklik ve erken çocukluk dönemindeki etkilerine yönelik çalışmalar gözden geçirilmiştir. Bu çalışma kapsamında Çocuk Ebeveyn Psikoterapisi, Bağlanma ve Biyodavranışsal Denge Programı, Leiden Üniversitesi tarafından geliştirilmiş Video-Geribildirimine Dayalı Olumlu Ebeveynlik Müdahale Programı, Güvenli Çember Ebeveynlik Destek Programı ve Etkili ve Keyifli Ebeveynliğe Doğru Adımlar Programı ele alınmıştır. Bu müdahalelerin amaçları, içerikleri ve bu doğrultuda yapılan farklı araştırmaların bulguları temel alınarak programların çocuk ve anne-çocuk etkileşimi üzerindeki gelişimsel etkileri tartışılmıştır.
