Objectifs : L’objectif de notre recherche est d’évaluer l’influence de l’insensibilité émotionnelle 
sur le système d’attachement chez des enfants d’âge préscolaire (entre 3 et 5 ans). Ce mémoire 
s’intéresse spécialement aux représentations que ces enfants se font de la relation d’attachement à leurs parents au travers de récits à compléter et de dessins de la famille. Il sera aussi intéressant de voir comment l’insensibilité émotionnelle va se refléter dans ceux-ci. 
Méthodologie : Ce mémoire s’inscrit dans le projet de thèse d’Elodie Mormont. Notre échantillon 
est composé de trois enfants avec insensibilité émotionnelle, tous d’âge préscolaire. Lors de la 
première phase de la recherche, l’insensibilité émotionnelle était mesurée grâce à l’Inventory of 
Callous Unemotional traits (ICU, Frick, 2004). De plus, les parents ont rempli un questionnaire 
évaluant le profil d’attachement de leur enfant : l’Attachement Insecurity Screening Inventory 
(AISI, Polderman & Kellaert-Knoll, 2008). Lors de la seconde phase, le profil d’attachement était 
évalué à l’aide de l’Attachment Story Completion Task (ASCT, Bretherton, Ridgeway, & Cassidy, 
1990) et du test du dessin de la famille (Corman, 1961). Les aspects qualitatifs retrouvés dans les récits et les dessins produits par les enfants sont ce qui nous intéressait le plus. Enfin, le Modified Crowell Procedure (Crowell & Feldman, 1988), le Parent Development Interview (Sleed & al., 2018) et le Five Minute Speech Sample (Magana et al., 1986) ont été administrés pour nous renseigner sur la relation entre l’enfant et son parent. 
Résultats : Les données obtenues à l’ICU et à l’AISI ont permis de mettre en évidence un lien 
entre l’attachement et l’insensibilité émotionnelle, plus particulièrement le facteur « uncaring » 
(indifférence) de celle-ci. Ensuite, le codage et l’analyse des aspects qualitatifs des récits de 
l’ASCT et du dessin de la famille ont mis en évidence des caractéristiques du profil désorganisé 
chez nos trois sujets et du profil évitant chez l’un d’entre eux. Les éléments les plus saillants étaient des thématiques d’agression et de destruction ainsi que des tournures chaotiques lorsque le lien d’attachement était mis en jeu dans les histoires. Enfin, les variables impactant la qualité de la relation ont été évaluées. 
Conclusion : Un plus grand échantillon et un groupe contrôle permettraient de généraliser nos 
résultats à la population. Impliquer les pères serait aussi judicieux à l’avenir. En tout cas, continuer d’investiguer les liens entre l’attachement insécure et l’insensibilité émotionnelle est intéressant afin de trouver d’éventuelles interventions.

Disruptive behavior disorders (DBD) refer to a group of conditions that typically share difficulties in modulating aggressive conducts, self-control, and impulses, with resulting behaviors that constitute a threat to others’ safety and to social norms. Problematic issues with self-control associated with these disorders are commonly first observed in childhood, but may often persist into adolescence and adulthood, or pose a developmental risk for subsequent negative outcomes. The clinical management of DBD in childhood and adolescence has seen great advances in recent years, and research has also focused on identifying early signs, predictors, and risk factors, which may help clinicians to disentangle and subtype the heterogeneous manifestations of BDB. This has allowed significant progress to be made in defining specific developmental trajectories, targeted prevention programs, and timely treatment strategies. The principal aims of this Special Issue were thus to address three core features of DBD clinical management, the multidimensional assessment of callous–unemotional traits, empathic faults and emotional dysregulation, and the available treatment options. In this Special Issue, twelve relevant contributions, including ten original articles, one systematic review, and one study protocol, which provide novel insights for the assessment and treatment of DBD in clinical practice, have been collected by the editors.
