Merger
editIt seems to me that this has much to do with the concept of Anaclitic depression, and the two pages may benefit from merging. Pthag 17:17, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
- Merger seems reasonable. I'm going to be bold. A quick google search suggests that "hospitalism" is the more commonly used term so I'm going to point the redirect in that direction for now. Thanks. Rossami (talk) 21:23, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
There should be some discussion of Bowlby and the entire concept of attachment, since this was the foundation of it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.65.182.238 (talk) 14:37, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
Hypothesis: Anaclitic depression = subtype of depression ?
editI did a quick search and anaclitic depression is (for some) a suggested subtype of depression: anaclitic and introjective depression. I am a little concerned that, to the reader, the redirect suggests the terms hospitalism and anaclitic are identical. Which I think is not the case.

Quote1:
Extensive research (see summaries in Blatt, 2004; Blatt & Zuroff, 1992; Luyten, Corveleyn, & Blatt, 2005) documents the validity of the anaclitic–introjective distinction [...]
Quote2: studies from several strands of research, including both psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral approaches, over several decades, have identified two fundamental dimensions in depression (Arieti & Bemporad, 1978, 1980; Beck, 1983, 1999; Blatt, 1974, 1998, 2004; Blatt, D’Afflitti & Quinlan, 1976; Blatt, Quinlan, Chevron, McDonald, & Zuroff, 1982): an anaclitic1 dimension and an introjective2 dimension (Blatt & Maroudas, 1992). The anaclitic dimension involves feelings of loneliness, abandonment, and neglect, emphasized in the research on “simple depression.” In contrast, the introjective dimension involves feelings of failure, worthlessness, and guilt, as emphasized in research on melancholic depression and manic-depressive psychosis.
