The understanding
of individual differences in development outcomes
of children with
congenital development disorders is a transactional
process which
includes interplay between risk factors (e.g., child’s
level of
functioning) and environmental protective factors. Parent-child
quality of
interaction is a major protective factor for better
developmental
outcomes for children in general, and especially for
children with
developmental risks or disabilities. This interaction
includes parental
sensitivity as well as regulated and well-attuned
teaching behaviours
that are adapted to the child’s special needs.
Qualitative
parent-child interaction served as a target for many early
interventions. In
this talk I will present theoretical aspects
characterizing
qualitative parent-child interaction as well as the
meditational model
for early intervention that focuses on enhancing
parent-child
interaction in children with developmental disorders.
