The Bucharest Early Intervention Project found that the more sensitive and responsive the care children received, the fewer signs of Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) the children showed. This suggests that interventions aimed at improving the quality of care for children can have a positive impact on their attachment outcomes. Option A is incorrect because some children raised in the orphanage did develop an attachment. Option B is incorrect because the study found more children showing signs of Disinhibited Social Engagement Disorder (DSED) than RAD. Option D is incorrect because the study found that children who were placed with a family after age 24 months also showed improvement in their outcomes, although not as much as those placed before the age of 12 months.
