This paper begins by outlining four aims of the U.N. | |
Convention on the Rights of the Child, namely: (1) to | |
create developmental environments which facilitate | |
interaction between adults and children; (2) to develop | |
adults' sensitivity for children and to increase their | |
level of knowledge of the young child's needs; (3) to | |
give adults the ability to provide for children's | |
developmental needs in situations of extreme adversity; | |
and (4) to develop the structure of institutions that | |
serve children. After a discussion of theoretical issues | |
relating to children's attachments and adult-child | |
relationships, the paper examines a type of intervention | |
program designed to facilitate caregiver-child | |
interactions. In this intervention, caregiver-child | |
interactions are videotaped. The videotape recordings are | |
then viewed by the caregiver and a professional | |
instructor or psychologist in order to improve the | |
interactions between the caregiver and child. An example | |
of such an intervention, implemented in Jordan and | |
reported in 1991, is described in an appendix which | |
analyzes the children's problems that the intervention | |
attempted to address, lists the short- and long-term | |
goals of the intervention as well as the steps involved | |
in the intervention, and reports the results of the | |
intervention. (Contains 23 references.) (MM) | |
