Incorporating an Attachment Q-Set into Parent-Child Relationship Assessment and Support in Early Head Start

Description:
The University of Washington-Puget Sound Educational Service District Early Head Start (EHS) Program Partnership assessed the reliability, validity, and utility of the Toddler Attachment Sort-45 (TAS45) for measuring parent-child attachment relationships for low-income children. Project staff trained staff and supervisors at the EHS program to use and incorporate the TAS45 into periodic assessments of child development and parent-child interactions. Further, the project planned to develop a dissemination package promoting the use of the TAS45 to assess and support parent-child attachment relationships. Participants included children in home-based and center-based EHS programs. Project results contribute to the body of knowledge about the adaptation of research-based tools into best practices of an EHS program.
