  1. Attachment Theory:Today, we will ask and answer 4 questions: 1. What is attachment? 2. Why are students’ attachment classifications important? 3. From where do the different attachment classifications comes? 4. What can teachers do during instruction to promote students’ trust and secure attachment?

  2. Question 1:What is attachment? • Attachment is the close emotional bond or relationship the student has with others (e.g., teachers) that is characterized by affection and the desire to maintain proximity with the other.

  3. Three Types of Attachment • 1. Secure Attachment High trust, high closeness, and high confidence in the availability of the other person in times of need. Two Types of Insecure Attachments • 2. Anxious attachment Strong desire for relatedness with the attachment figure but mixed with mistrust, a fear of rejection, and insecurity about how the other person will respond in times of need. • 3. Avoidant attachment Low desire for relatedness mixed with high mistrust and a preference to maintain one’s emotional distance from the other person.

  4. Question 2:Why are students’ attachment classifications important? • Securely-attached students, compared to insecurely-attached students, show greater: • 1. Academic success (grades, school retention) • 2. Peer popularity (friendships, sociability) • 3. Capacity to cope with negative emotions (frustration, anger). • 4. Prosocial (vs. aggressive) behavior.

  5. Question #3:Where do students’ attachment classifications come? • From continuous exposure to high vs. low quality relationships with the important people in their lives (e.g., parents, peers, teachers).

  6. Attunement Relatedness Teacher’s Provision of a High-Quality Relationship Students’ Secure vs. Insecure Attachment Style Supportiveness Gentle Discipline High Quality Relationships

  7. Question #4:What can teachers do during instruction to promote students’ secure attachments? More: Rather than: • Attunement * Lack of Awareness • Relatedness * Neglect • Supportiveness * Control • Gentle Discipline * Power Assertion

  8. Quality of Relationship with Caregivers * High-Quality Relationship * Low-Quality Relationship Positive School-Related Outcomes * Academic success * Peer Popularity * Ability to manage negative emotions * Prosocial (not aggressive) behavior Mental Models Mental Model of Self Am I lovable? Do I deserve attention and care? Mental Model of Others Are others responsive? Are others trustworthy? Putting It All Together:Attachment Theory in a Nutshell

  9. Your Own Attachment Style(Select one of the following) • I find it relatively easy to get close to others and am comfortable depending on them and having them depend on me. I don’t worry about being abandoned or about someone getting to close to me. • I find that others are reluctant to get as close as I would like. I worry that others don’t really love me or want to stay with me. I want to merge completely with others, especially love partners, and this desire sometimes scares others away. • I am somewhat uncomfortable being close to others; I find it difficult to trust others completely, difficult to allow myself to depend on them. I become nervous when anyone gets too close, and often, others want me to be more intimate with them than I feel comfortable being.
