used a group-based inter- vention for parents as an alternative method to enhance infant attachment security. The group involved 76 mothers in an eight-session attachment group called "Right from the Start" (RFTS) and was compared to home visits for such services. An analysis of results indicated no significant differences between RFTS and home visiting, with both groups showing small improvements in infant attachment security and maternal sensitivity. RFTS cost significantly less and was more cost effective than home visiting. Furthermore, it was not significantly different in terms of participation rates, client satisfaction, or follow-up service requests. Niccols concluded that RFTS is as effective as home visiting in improving infant attachment security and maternal sensitivity.
