- Abstract
The article discusses the behavioral and biological effects of disruptions in children's relationships with their caregivers. A study of children's behavioral and biological reactions to disruptions in care revealed that young children who have been placed into foster care show atypical patterns of cortisol production across the day. The study also found that when children experience disruptions in care, their reactions and behaviors vary depending on their age.
