In the present study we investigated key sources of continuity and change from mother-child attachment security in early childhood (at 15, 24, and 36 months) to state of mind regarding attachment in late adolescence. Given the opportunity provided by the large longitudinal SECCYD sample that included assessments over time of important potential sources of change and continuity in attachment security, we were uniquely positioned to address this question. Moreover, although the SECCYD did not recruit a high-risk sample at birth, the relative socio-demographic breadth of the sample compared with the more uniform low-risk attachment samples studied by most other investigators is a clear advantage. Analyses included comparisons of those who changed from secure to insecure versus those who were stably secure; those who changed from insecure to secure versus those who were stably insecure, and (for reference) those who were stably secure versus those who were stably insecure. On the basis of theory and extant empirical evidence, we included, as predictors, assessments over time of observed maternal and paternal sensitivity, presence of the father in the home, maternal and paternal depression, and number of negative life events.
