Awakening and Growth of the Human Infant: The Nature of Human Attachment in Infancy

This video, with Michael Trout, provides a historical overview of infant mental health with current thoughts on the process by which human infants and their primary caretakers develop a bond.

The video examines what difference the bond makes to the infant's mental, motor, physical, and emotional development and how we may notice when such a bond is absent or conflicted throughout various stages of the infant's growth and maturity.

Includes narrative and vignettes from both healthy and conflicted caregiver-infant dyads. Suitable for parents and educators as well as for use as an introduction to more in-depth training of clinicians.
