In reviewing the preceding articles, I emphasize the predominance of relational theories in the study of development as a way of demonstrating the evolutionary and relational extremity of reactive attachment disorder (RAD). The lack (or distortion?) of mutuality, RAD's defining feature, has implications for all aspects of development, not least of which is self-regulation. I review each article in this special issue, emphasizing important features, integrating across studies, expanding their links to attachment theory, and recommending future directions. Finally, I conduct two meta-analyses of the samples in this special issue, one meta-analysis addressing convergent validity of RAD assessment instrumentation developed by authors represented here and the other addressing the links between RAD and internalizing and externalizing behaviors. This special issue exploits the disaggregation of reactive attachment and disinhibited social engagement disorders to move the field forward in remarkable ways, both methodologically and substantively.
在回顾前面的文章时,我强调了关系理论在发展研究中的主导地位,以此来展示反应性依恋障碍(RAD)的进化和关系极端性。RAD 的定义特征是缺乏(或扭曲?)互惠性,这对发展的各个方面都有影响,尤其是自我调节。我回顾了本期特刊中的每一篇文章,强调了重要的特征,整合了研究成果,扩展了它们与依恋理论的联系,并为未来的研究方向提出了建议。最后,我对本期特刊中的样本进行了两项元分析,一项元分析是关于在这里发表文章的作者所开发的 RAD 评估工具的收敛效度,另一项是关于 RAD 与内化和外化行为之间的联系。本期特刊利用反应性依恋和去抑制性社会参与障碍的细分,以显著的方法和实质性的方式推动该领域向前发展。
