Psychometric properties of the French Infant-Toddler Working Alliance Inventory Short version (IT-WAI-S).

Objective: Therapeutic alliance has been little investigated in infant and toddler therapy, with no tools specifically adapted to this population. However, we have developed the Infant-Toddler Working Alliance Inventory-Short form (IT-WAI-S) which is based on the Working Alliance Inventory. The aim of this study was to assess the psychometric properties of this original French tool, in its two versions: for parent (IT-WAI-SP) and for therapist (IT-WAI-STh).

Attachment patterns, self-compassion, and coping strategies in patients with chronic pain.

Introduction: In the recent year's literature, attachment insecurity is described as a vulnerability factor among patients with chronic pain, associated with poor pain coping, anxiety, depression, catastrophizing, greater pain intensity, and disability. Self-compassion, on the other hand, is described as a protective factor, associated with lower levels of negative affect, catastrophizing, depression, and anxiety in patients with chronic pain.

Methods: In this study, we aim to explore the association between attachment, self-compassion quality, and coping strategies, in patients with chronic pain.

[Changes in autonomy and attachment to parents and caregivers during transition to adult services].

The transition from pediatric to adult care is a risky period in the care of a child or adolescent with a chronic illness. This pivotal stage is also part of an evolutionary process of individuation and empowerment that is both global and specific. The security felt, both in relationships with parents and caregivers, is fundamental to these processes.

Attachment, Feeding Practices, Family Routines and Childhood Obesity: A Systematic Review of the Literature.

Childhood obesity is considered a major public health problem. To help prevention and intervention programs targeting families with obese children, this paper is aimed at synthesizing multifactorial and transactional data resulting from studies and reviews assessing relational factors between the child and his or her parents and the child's obesity risk, including the child's and CG's attachment quality, parental feeding practices, and family routines. It is also aimed at assessing the mediation of these links by specific self-regulatory capacities across different developmental periods (0-2, 2-8, and 8-18 years old).

A Controlled Trial Evaluating the Impact of a Home-Visiting Program on Maternal Disruptive Communication in a Vulnerable Population.

Attachment disorganization is a significant high-risk factor for infant mental health. Its association with high-risk psychosocial contexts has been clearly identified, but the link between these difficult social contexts and maternal disruptive communication has been poorly explored. The CAPEDP (Compétences Parentales et Attachement dans la Petite Enfance; Parental competences and attachment in early childhood) study assessed the effects of a manualized home-intervention on the mental health of children and its major determinants.
