• TITLE: The Effect of a Mother’s Level of Attachment and Her Emotional Intelligence on a Child’s Health during Its First Year of Life

  AUTHORS: Elena Nikolaeva, Vera Merenkova

  KEYWORDS: Health; Emotional Intelligence; Attachment; A Child in Its First Year of Life

  JOURNAL NAME: Psychology, Vol.4 No.5, May 22, 2013

  ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility of predicting the health of a child during its first year by using the mother’s emotional intelligence and the level of her attachment to the child. Serving as test subjects were 50 mother-child pairs during the first year of life and 50 mother-child pairs during the second year of life (altogether 200 individuals). It was shown that the likelihood of dismissing a diagnosis given to a child at a maternity clinic depends on the level of the mother’s acceptance of the child and not on her emotional intelligence and anxiety.
