Abstract: Emotional development of handicapped children is examined from the perspective of attachment-separation-individuation theory. Data suggests that handicapped children are at greater risk of disordered patterns of interaction, delayed progression through stages of attachment-separation-individuation, and incomplete internalization of object and self-constancy. Specific risk factors and patterns are described. (MCK)
