United Kingdom: Experts express concerns over infant mental health assessment (Press release)
University of Cambridge – October 11, 2017

The consensus statement, published in the journal Attachment & Human Development, highlights the appropriate use and current limitations of a classification known as ‘Disorganised Infant Attachment’, which has been in use for over 30 years.
