TCI

Service Description

The TCI, with the addition of the “frustration & repair” task, enables professionals to use a 5-minute procedure to estimate 2-5 year-olds’ attachment strategy with their parents. That is, the TCI provides information about both interaction and attachment and extends this to 5 years of age. Instructor: Patricia M. Crittenden, Ph.D., Prerequisites: 1) Before the course: ICI, SSP, or PAA 2) Before taking the reliability test, Attachment & Psychopathology Language: The course will be in English, although the interactions will be in several languages.
