HUAIQUIAN-BILLEKE, Claudia; MANSILLA-SEPULVEDA, Juan e LASALLE-RIVAS, Viviana. Attachment: Representations of educators in kindergartens in Temuco, Chile. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2016, vol.14, n.2, pp.1119-1129. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.14216100115.
This research presents the results of a study that describe the perceptions of attachment among 38 preschooler educators that belong to the National Kindergarten Board. The objectives were to describe the significance of the concept of attachment for educators and to identify their criteria for assessing levels of attachment. This is a qualitative descriptive study. Semi-structured interviews and ethnographic observations were used as tools to collect data. Among the most relevant finding from the study were the inappropriate use of attachment theory by the educators, which affects t heir knowledge of disciplinary techniques that they use to make methodological decisions regarding their professional practices. The kind of perceptions that educators have are social, experiential and based on classifications, which means that attachment is a relational process that has a long-term impact when lasting affective bonds are created.
