Abstract
This exposition provides a theoretical framework for designing and implementing prevention programs for students in school-related transitions (e.g., entering kindergarten, transition to high school). For this purpose, an anchor point is defined in an ecological and developmental perspective as an element of the person-in-environment system that facilitates transaction between the person and the environment. Depending upon the context, anchor points can lead to adaptive transaction or maladaptive transaction. Features and examples of anchor points are discussed and proposed are procedures to plant positive anchor points which lead to adaptive transaction and children's development in a new person-in-environment system. Finally, its strengths in prevention programs for school-related transitions are addressed.
