Child''S attachment to his mother and attachment relations in close adults

Street 14, 156001, Kostroma, Russia. Studies on children's attachment relations show that the aspects of mother-child relations are the main reason for the attachment quality development. Researchers dispute about attachment type transfer across generations. Our research, conducted in the framework of intergenerational transfer of individual's relations system, investigates the co-relation between indicators of attachment and affection of mothers and grandmothers and child's attachment to his/her mother. The study involved 30 triads (child - mother - grandmother). Our research showed that the demonstration of confidence in relations of proximity by adults bringing up the child (mother, grandmother) helps to develop the need for sensitivity in behaviour of the child.
