Mini-Conference on Father-Child Attachment

Hosted by the Society for Emotion and Attachment Studies (SEAS) and the Special Interest Research Group on Father-Child Attachment and Relationships. 

The mini-conference series features three min-conferences, each hosted by a Special Interest research Group of the SEAS. The Mini-Conference on Father-Child Attachment is the first of the series. The mimi-conference helps advance the field of father-child attachment and relationships, a topic that has received less interest when compared to mother-child relationships. Much remains unknown about father-child relationships, their precursors, and their outcomes. because growth is fostered through collaboration, we consider it critical for researchers to have a venue to present their latest work and to discuss ways forward.

The mini-conference on Father-Child Attachment, which features important presentations on themes related to attachment relationships, and fathering more broadly. We hope that this event will foster discussions among scholars from all levels and backgrounds, and facilitate the formation of productive collaborations for years to come.
