Danger, Development and Adaptation: Seminal Papers on the Dynamic-Maturational Model of Attachment and Adaptation

By Patricia McKinsey Crittenden

Danger, Development and Adaptation is a collection of landmark journal articles and book chapters by developmental psychologist Patricia M Crittenden. This selection of writings highlights Crittenden's contribution to attachment theory and research, including her observation of the compulsive A, coercive C, and combined A/C patterns; the application of attachment theory to cases of child maltreatment, parent and child mental illness, and criminality; and the development of the Dynamic-Maturational Model (DMM) of Attachment and Adaptation. The selected papers also serve as an introduction to the DMM, showing the history of research and clinical experience that informs the model.
