In particular, adult attachment style is a key explanatory factor for understanding problems in human relationships.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis practical book introduces and explains an easily accessible assessment tool for adult attachment style, the Attachment Style Interview (ASI). Based on extensive research study, it discusses appropriate interventions and case assessments that can be made to help families in need. Simpler than the Adult Attachment Interview, which requires expert administration, the ASI is an invaluable and evidence-based resource. Presenting clear and concise descriptions of the measure and summaries of the attachment models developed, this text provides discussions of its relevance for different practice contexts, and uses a range of worked case studies to illustrate its principles and applications. It details attachment issues in different relationship domains to cover areas of risk and resilience relevant for practice such as: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cli\u003eAdult depression and anxiety and stress models \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cli\u003ePartner difficulties including domestic violence \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cli\u003eChildhood neglect and abuse as a source of attachment problems \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cli\u003eParenting and intergenerational transmission of risk \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cli\u003eInterventions, service application and use in family therapy. \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eUnderstanding Adult Attachment in Family Relationships\u003c\/em\u003e provides an important reference for all practitioners working with children, adolescents and families, especially those undertaking further study.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAntonia Bifulco\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of Lifespan Psychology and Social Science, Director of Lifespan Research Group, Centre for Abuse and Trauma Studies at Kingston University, London, UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeraldine Thomas\u003c\/strong\u003e is a specialist therapeutic service provider and consultant working in partnership with Early Help Services for Children, Young People and Families and Looked After Children in Kensington and Chelsea, London, UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 352\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.74 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 26, 2012\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51750825132320,"sku":"9780415594332","price":103.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/57fe4102471764110eb4312a463a241e.webp?v=1779958689","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/understanding-adult-attachment-in-family-relationships-research-assessment-and-intervention-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
