SANTELICES A, María Pía  y  PEREZ C, Francisca. Children's Attachment Evolution with the Educational Staff in Chilean Child Care Centers. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2013, vol.12, n.3, pp.821-832. ISSN 1657-9267.

The present study pretends to evaluate the bond that the children develop with their care centre staff in Chilean crèches, analyzing the caregiver sensitivity and the cooperative child response. A group of 43 toddlers between 8 months and 2 years old in interaction with their principal care giver at the child centre, was observed in three different moments during a year. Results show that the care centre staff maintain their sensitivity, decrease their controlled response and increase significantly their non responsiveness in time; while children increase in a significantly way their cooperativeness and diminished significantly their ambivalent response.

Palabras clave : Alternative Care; Multiple Attachment; Sensitivity; Educational Staff; Chile.
