Orientation: Dyadic trauma is contagious. Converging neurosynchronistic constructs and the application of attachment focused-somatic experiencing (AF-SE) to traumatised dyads have revealed phenomena that required examination of the relationship between trauma, attachment and community psychopathology.Research purpose: The phylogenetic impact of trauma on attachment is under-reported in attachment traumatology. The purpose of the study was to introduce the theory of dyadic trauma, and SPA and interpersonal neurosynchronistic phylogenesis (INP) as constructs to explain the relationship between trauma, attachment and community psychopathology.Motivation for the study: Widespread loneliness and loss of social cohesion indicate significant, trauma-driven phylogenetic shifts in secure phylogenetic attachment (SPA). Interpersonal neurosynchronistic constructs emerged to elucidate the phenomena.Research approach/design and method: Conceptualisation based on a synthesis of pertinent research provided for an analysis with theory adaptation as an approach. Secure phylogenetic attachment transposed interpersonally is compromised by maladaptive-interpersonal neurosynchronistic phylogenesis (M-INP). Attachment traumatology was chosen as the domain theory and INP as the method theory.Main findings: Maladaptive-interpersonal neurosynchronistic phylogenesis is complicit in community psychopathology. It was found that INP served as a valuable method theory in generating new insights regarding dyadic trauma, attachment and psychopathology. Three unique categories of attachment, namely SPA, the antithesis of trauma, traumatic and monozygotic attachment were proposed.Implications for practice: Attachment traumatologists are provided with a theoretical model, dyadic trauma and descriptive terminology to elucidate the phylogenetic impact of trauma on attachment.Contribution/value add: Specific nomenclature described the interpersonal neuro-dynamics of INP and its functional role in traumatic attachment thereby indicating a paradigm shift in attachment traumatology.

Orientation: Monozygotic twins offer a unique opportunity to examine the contagious nature of trauma in attachment dyads when one twin experiences trauma, but the other does not. Dyadic trauma is antagonistic to secure phylogenetic attachment (SPA).Research purpose: Attachment perturbations in trauma may be complicit in psychopathology. Somatic Experiencing (SE) is an effective treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and attachment focused somatic experiencing (AF-SE) resolves dyadic trauma.Motivation for the study: Monozygotic twins may share a unique form of sibling attachment, described here as monozygotic attachment, characterised by elevated somatic congruence resulting in suboptimal attachment. The study was conducted to determine whether dyadic trauma is contagious and compromises SPA and whether SE and AF-SE are effective treatments to restore SPA.Research approach/design and method: A quantitative experimental approach was used to examine the nature of trauma in monozygotic attachment and the significance of trauma in relation to psychopathology. Smartphone devices were used to record seven autonomic variables pre- and post-treatment for both twins: heart rate variability (HRV), three HRV index variables, heart rate, sleep duration and sleep disturbances. Mean and small sample t-tests were applied to determine statistical significance.Main findings: Results conclude that trauma is contagious in attachment dyads and contributes to psychopathology. Somatic Experiencing is an effective treatment for trauma. The AF-SE resolves dyadic trauma restoring SPA as the antithesis of trauma.Implications for practice: Traumatology and attachment theory may be linked theoretically to resolve trauma.Contribution/value-add: Secure phylogenetic attachment offers a new category of attachment theory that defines trauma in dyads and its relationship to psychopathology.

Orientation: Traditional models of planned change are no longer sufficient, amidst constantly changing contexts. Applied neurosciences provides a unique, integrated perspective on human functioning. This study employed a neuroscientific perspective to explore participants’ experiences of the neurobiological impact of emergent change.Research purpose: This study explored participants’ experiences of emergent change from an applied neurosciences perspective.Motivation for the study: The impact of emergent change on employees has been underestimated and under-represented in both the literature and practice. Exploring the original voices of employees, as well as the underlying neural mechanisms and their dynamic interactions that shape these experiences, offers new insights into this complex phenomenon.Research approach/design and method: Nine client-facing employees from a software development company in South Africa, selected through purposive sampling, participated in an interactive qualitative analysis (IQA) focus group and follow-up interviews. Data were collected and analysed by the participants, in keeping with the IQA protocol.Main findings: Experiences of emergent change were found to threaten individuals’ and teams’ basic psychological needs, with a significant impact on the physiological, emotional and interpersonal levels. The participants’ experiences reflected a dysregulation in mental operating network activation, in response to their compromised needs.Implications for practice: The findings imply the need for interventions to enhance employees’ resilience during emergent change by developing the internal stability and external adaptability of their mental operating networks. This aligns with developments related to well-being in the neuroscience literature.Contribution/value add: The study provides an insight into individuals’ and teams’ experiences of emergent change, which can be used to inform new approaches for research-informed interventions and practices aligned with applied neurosciences.
