Young Children in Brief Separation
Produced By James and Joyce Robertson

Young Children in Brief Separation is a classic five-film series on the responses of healthy young children to separation from their mothers. The Robertsons observed in detail the behavior of five children, ages 1 to 2, whose mothers were hospitalized for 9 to 27 days for the birth of a new baby.

The films, as a series, compliment each other by showing how the young child's ability to cope with separation from the mother is affected by age and by the level of maturity, the parent-child relationship and the quality of substitute care.

Going to Hospital
Two Films by James Robertson

Going to Hospital records the experiences of two young children, both admitted to the hospital for minor operations.  The films objectively contrast the impact of the hospital experience on a child who is left alone with a child whose mother is present throughout the child’s admission to the hospital. 

Produced by James Robertson, these two films had a profound effect on hospital administrators and health care providers and resulted in liberalizing pediatric hospital visitation restrictions in the United Kingdon and throughout the world.

 

From Our Groundbreaking Conference on Pediatric Psychological Trauma

Neurobehaviorial Development of Young Children
Neuroscience and Early Trauma

Allan Schore, Ph.D.

A large body of experimental and clinical data now indicates that early trauma impacts the later capacities of the right brain and the body's ability to regulate an array of affective and motivational states, including pain states.

In this presentation from our 2010 Pediatric Psychological Trauma Conference, Dr. Schore describes the mechanisms by which overwhelming experiences impact the developing brain and mind, including the use of the bottom-line defense of dissociation.
