ABSTRACT

Cornerstones in attachment research is a landmark history of five major research groups that have helped establish the empirical foundations of the Bowlby-Ainsworth attachment tradition. This essay highlights Duschinsky’s use of historical methodology rather than the narrative-style review more familiar to psychologists. We then turn to a recurring theme in the book, the inconsistent use of language and theoretical misunderstandings, especially as they arise at the interface between attachment study and more applied disciplines. We discuss Duschinsky’s sociological analysis of how these difficulties arose and are maintained and our own perspective, which emphasizes more difficulties attending communication across declining and emerging paradigms. We expect Cornerstones will be a significant asset as we try to establish new modes of collaboration and communication with educators, clinicians and other practitioners who work not with abstractions and populations but with individuals presenting complex histories and living complex lives.

摘要

依恋研究的基石是五个主要研究小组的里程碑式历史，它们帮助建立了鲍比-安斯沃斯依恋传统的经验基础。这篇文章强调了 Duschinsky 对历史方法论的使用，而不是心理学家更熟悉的叙事式评论。然后我们转向书中反复出现的主题，语言的不一致使用和理论误解，尤其是当它们出现在依恋研究和更多应用学科之间的界面时。我们讨论了 Duschinsky 对这些困难如何产生和维持的社会学分析以及我们自己的观点，它强调了在衰落和新兴范式之间进行交流的更多困难。我们期待基石 当我们试图与教育者、临床医生和其他从业者建立新的合作和交流模式时，这些从业者将成为一项重要的资产，这些从业者不是与抽象和人群一起工作，而是与呈现复杂历史和生活复杂生活的个人一起工作。
