I'm looking for measurements of attachment in pre-school children for my dissertation and needing a measurement that does not require training or the caregiver present.
I think Rene Gilles' adapted methodology for examining children's attachment may be appropriate for your research. She has developed criteria for evaluating emotional attachment. Very appropriate, but for children 5 years old is the model of N. Kaplan, who also measures the types of emotional attachment in children.
Thank you for your question. For measure-in-children (ECD=3-5 yrars age) use Shakira Tape for soon result (see in google)/ Child Mid-Upper Arm Circumeference (MUAC). Others are height-for-age (stunting), weight for age. I recommended please see anthropometric indicator measurement guide, webside: www.fantaproject.org. If you could not find pls write me.
