Predicting Student Perceptions of School Connectedness: The Contributions of Parent Attachment and Peer AttachmentDixon, Jennifer Anne 14 December 2007 (has links)
This study explored the relationship between attachment quality and school connectedness in a high school sample of adolescents. Although there is a literature related to adolescent attachment quality and its effects on adjustment and development, relatively little attention has been paid to the relationship between parent and peer attachment and school connectedness. Further, these attachments and connections have yet to be examined among general and special education populations. Attachment quality has been correlated with identity development, self-esteem, competence, and psychopathology and has been investigated as a mediator in the relation between risk and resilience. School connectedness centers around the theory that when adolescents perceive consistent personal power, attention, and praise, they develop a sense of attachment to their school environment. Further, school connectedness, attachment to family, and positive peer bonds, respectively, have been viewed as protective factors, i.e., preventing adolescents from engaging in health risk behaviors (i.e., violence, risky sexual behavior, drug use, and dropping out of school) (U.S. Department of Education, 2006). The present study included 157 students, aged 15 to 18 years who participated in a longitudinal study (The Longitudinal Study of Co-morbid Disorders in Children and Adolescence). Using quantitative methodologies, analyses examined the relationships among gender, ethnicity, risk status and parent attachment, peer attachment, and school connectedness. Measures included self-report questionnaires of attachment quality and school connectedness in adolescence. Several major findings from the present investigation include: (1) higher ratings of attachment to parents were associated with higher ratings of school connectedness; (2) higher ratings of attachment to peers were associated with higher ratings of school connectedness; (3) students at risk reported less school connectedness than not at risk students; and (4) the effects of peer attachment on school connectedness were moderated by risk group.

高風險家庭兒童之依附品質探究─以社會工作者角度觀之 / The Research of Children Attachment Quality in High-Risk Families -From the Perspective of Social Workers葉芳伶, Yeh, Fang Ling Unknown Date (has links)
兒童的依附品質就如同樹木的根基和莖葉,是身心健全成長的關鍵;然而,並非每一個家庭皆能滿足兒童的依附需求,特別是當家庭遭逢風險事件。本研究旨在探究高風險家庭中兒童之依附品質。
研究目的有三項,包含探究高風險家庭中兒童與主要照顧者之依附品質;風險因子對兒童依附關係所產生的衝擊;社會工作者(以下簡稱社工)對於兒童依附關係修復之處遇方式。本研究採質性研究之深度訪談法,訪談主體為社工,係以臺北市五間高風險家庭承辦單位之督導與社工為選樣對象,一共徵得二位督導、七位社工同意受訪。研究結果茲分為四面向,敘述如下:
一、高風險家庭兒童的依附對象多元,兒童除透過主要照顧者獲得依附滿足外,亦會向他人尋求情感連結。其中,兒童的依附行為包含正向的、矛盾的,以及負向的依附行為。
二、本研究參考相關文獻,以「照顧品質」、「信任關係」、「溝通品質」、「親疏遠近」四面向為主軸以探究兒童的依附品質。研究結果顯示風險因子會直接或間接地影響兒童的依附品質;其中,風險因子對「照顧品質」、「親疏遠近」的衝擊最大。
三、風險因子可能為不安全依附的預兆。本研究結果顯示家庭中經濟困難、婚姻關係不佳與物質濫用等風險因子,對兒童的依附發展有很大的衝擊。
四、高風險家庭社工對於兒童依附關係的修復,除透過直接服務外,社工亦會尋求替代性資源作為兒童的安全堡壘,以修復其依附關係。
最後,本研究亦針對高風險家庭兒童的依附修復策略和未來研究方向提出相關建議,以作為未來實務工作和更進一步研究之參考。 / The attachment quality of children is like the roots and leaves of tree, which is the key to complete well-being and optimal development of children. However, it is unfortunate that not every family can satisfy the attachment need of children, especially when one is struck by risk events. The research focus on children attachment quality in high-risk families.
The three purposes of the research are as follows: analyzing the attachment quality between children and primary caregiver in high-risk families; probing into the impact incurred from the risk factors to the children attachment; exploring the practical intervention of the social workers adopted to fix the children attachment. The study conducted the method of qualitative research, utilizing in-depth interview to the social workers. The research recruited two supervisors and seven social workers from the five agents of high-risk families in Taipei City. The results of the research can be presented in the four following prospects.
1.The attachment figure of children in high-risk families can be diversified. They might seek affectional bond from people other than primary caregivers for their special family background. To find the attachment satisfaction, their attachment behaviors might include positive attachment behavior, ambivalent attachment behavior, and negative attachment behavior.
2.The research referred to related literature and established four prospects, "Care Giving Quality", "Trust Relationship", "Communication Quality", and "Intimacy Nurturing" to explore the children attachment quality. The results point out that the risk factors might influence the children attachment quality directly or indirectly. Among all of prospects, the risk factors can cause greatest influence to "Care Giving Quality" and "Intimacy Nurturing".
3.The appearance of risk factors might cause the insecure attachment. Especially economic difficult, crisis in marriage, and substance abuse can greatly influence the children attachment quality.
4.Social workers can provide direct services or seek alternative resources as secure base to fix the children attachment in high-risk families.
Lastly, the research proposes attachment fix strategies for children in high-risk families and points out the potentialities of the topic, hoping the results of the research may enrich the related understanding and serve as a reference for practical fieldwork and future studies.
