New findings from Columbia University in the area of depression described.
"To investigate women's attachment style in relation to risk for pregnancy-specific distress and perinatal depression. During the 2nd trimester, 186 women were evaluated for Axis I psychiatric disorders," researchers in the United States report (see also Depression).
"In the 3rd trimester they self-reported: attachment style, pregnancy experience, current life stress, and symptoms of depression and anxiety.

The researchers concluded: "An approach to perinatal psychiatric disorders that includes psychological factors such as attachment could improve screening, and provide pregnant women with specifically-tailored psychosocial interventions focused on modifying attachment schemas."
Monk and colleagues published their study in Archives of Womens Mental Health (The relationship between women's attachment style and perinatal mood disturbance: implications for screening and treatment. Archives of Womens Mental Health, 2008;11(2):117-129).
