We investigated how past and current caregiving experiences impacted emotional event processing by examining inter-subject functional correlation in 7- to 15-year-olds during narrative movies depicting separation and reunion. Early adversity impacted amygdala interactions with the hippocampus, but medial prefrontal-amygdala connectivity and the content of later recall was shaped by attachment security to current caregivers. This suggests that current attachment can have a redemptive effect on attachment schemas formed in early childhood.
