Abstract
Intervention with infants, preschoolers, and their families requires that the child and adolescent psychiatrist shift perspective from a one-person psychology to a multiperson or “relational” psychology. Assessment and intervention with children younger than 5 years therefore necessitate that the clinician pay close attention to the unique characteristics of the parent–child relationship. These characteristics include adaptation to each other's temperaments, developmental capacities, and biological and psychological needs and desires, and to the demands of the particular environment with which the parent–child relationship contends.
