Assessing the Use of the Child Attachment Interview in a Sample of Israeli Jewish Children.

CONCLUSIONS: The clinical sample concordance rate, which was lower than in previous studies, indicates that parental concordance rates should be further investigated using different samples and countries. The study's findings regarding the difference that can be found between parental attachment classifications show the instrument's relevance in cases which the parental representations may differ. In these cases, using an instrument that does not examine the attachment toward both parents might not suffice. Study limitations and further implications are discussed.
