Abstract
A relationship-based model for the study of self-reliance in preschool children is presented. The application of this model is illustrated through the use of two case studies from an ongoing study of young children with motor impairments. Individual differences in degree and quality of self-reliance are related to differences in security of the children's attachments to their major caregivers, as well as to differences in those caregivers' “working models” of important family relationships.
