In a randomized trial with 246 children in 20 Head Start classrooms, children exposed to the PATHS program had higher emotion knowledge skills and were
rated as more socially competent and less socially withdrawn at the end
of the school year.26 When PATHS was implemented along with a language and literacy curriculum in a separate study in 44 Head Start classrooms, significant reductions in children's
aggressive behaviour were also observed.27
Children who have disorganized attachment with their primary attachment figure have been shown to be vulnerable to stress, have problems with regulation and control
of negative emotions, and display oppositional, hostile -
aggressive behaviours, and coercive styles
of interaction.2, 3 They may exhibit low self - esteem, internalizing and externalizing problems in the early school years, poor peer interactions, unusual or bizarre
behaviour in the classroom, high teacher
ratings of dissociative
behaviour and internalizing symptoms in middle childhood, high levels
of teacher -
rated social and behavioural difficulties in class, low mathematics attainment, and impaired formal operational skills.3 They may show high levels
of overall psychopathology at 17 years.3 Disorganized attachment with a primary attachment figure is over-represented in groups
of children with clinical problems and those who are victims
of maltreatment.1, 2,3 A majority
of children with early disorganized attachment with their primary attachment figure during infancy go on to develop significant social and emotional maladjustment and psychopathology.3, 4 Thus, an attachment - based intervention should focus on preventing and / or reducing disorganized attachment.
