Author: Maria Gustafsson and Sofie Ingström Title: ”Ett medlevarskap det är något alltså, något alltså jättespeciellt” - En studie om hur ett behandlingshem kan påverka anknytningsmönster. Keywords: relationships, attachment, home of treatment for youth, youth, significant others, trust. In our essay we had an aim to see how Hassela, Gotland affected the youths who lived there. We wanted to know if they had a secure or insecure attachment to their parents and if the attachment was affected after a time at Hassela. We were interested in what kind of attachment figures they had before they came to Hassela, Gotland and how they looked at themselves and others before they came there and if that had been changed. We used a qualitative method and we did ten interviews with youths who had been at Hassela, Gotland eight months or longer. We based our analysis on the attachment theory. We also used a theory about significant others. All of the youths in our interviews had some kind of insecure attachment to one or both of their parents before they arrived to Hassela, Gotland. Everyone had a problem in trusting grown-ups and forming relationships. A majority of the youths had been changed in some way. After the visit many youths were able to trust people, which probably made it easier for them to form good and healthy relationships in the future. Some of the youths had not changed as much as others, and were still trying to find out how to form real relationships and how to trust people.
