Abstract
|
|
|
The purpose of this study was to explore whether the use of guided imagery had any effect on parental fetal attachment scores by testing hypotheses de-rived from Rogers¢¥ (1980) Principle of Integrality. The experience of guided imagery was postulated to pattern the human energy field. The findings suggest that Rogers¢¥ Principle of Integrality may provide an explanation of attachment behaviors experienced during guided imagery. The findings from this study add to an emerging body of knowledge which is attempting to address the relation-ship between guided imagery and parental fetal attachment behaviors. However, the findings were not conclusive. Findings were discussed in light of the Rogerian Conceptual framework.
This was an initial investigation, using guided imagery, to ficilitate parental fetal attachment behavior, and the relationships between these variables require further investigation.
