Borderline personality disorder Attachment behavior Parent and child -- Psychological aspects Psychology, Pathological UCTD Thesis (MA) -- University of Stellenbosch, 2006. ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Attachment theory aims to provide a general theory of personality development. Attachment research has a responsibility to investigate the correlation between childhood attachment, adult attachment, aspects of personality development and psychopathology. The purpose of this literature review is to provide the reader with a summary, and critique of current research and knowledge on parent-child attachment - with a particular emphasis on the development of disorganized attachment in infancy and its connection to the development of Borderline Personality disorder. In this paper, essential propositions from attachment theory regarding the complex relation between early experience and psychopathology will be elaborated. These include formulations concerning (i) Disorganized attachment and psychopathology with a specific focus on Borderline Personality disorder (BPD); (ii) The correlation between BPD and disorganized attachment; (iii) Attachment theory and its implications; (iii) Causes of disorganized attachment and the role of early experience on later functioning and, (iv) implications for treating BPD patients. This literature review aims to stimulate future research on the predictive validity of attachment disorganization with relevance to the treatment of Borderline Personality Disorder.
