645 ENGLISH SUMMARY resemblance to Movement-as-anchor. This is not surprising, as the founders have collaborated for many years. Additionally, CSL, Floortime/FloorPlay, Heijkoop Method, and Theraplay also exhibit a reasonable number of similarities to Movement-as-anchor age based on the criteria used. However, what is interesting is the complete lack of agreement between Movement-asanchor on one hand, and FGC, MST, and the Presence approach on the other hand. The essential distinction between Movement-as-anchor and these three methods seems to be most evident in their respective principles and approaches. They are described at a much more abstract level than within Movement-as-anchor. For example, the principle of FGC is formulated at a sociological level, namely the right of the citizen in a democratic society to take control. The Presence approach also revolves around a right, but at an ethical level. Every individual, from someone with intellectual disabilities to a murderer, has the right to be treated with dignity. In fact, FGC and the Presence approach are not intervention methods, but rather approaches that focus on treating individuals with dignity. The principle and approach of MST aim at reducing problem behaviour within the family system and supporting parents in enhancing their parenting skills. In Movement-as-anchor, the primary focus is not on the problem behaviour, but rather on improving the underlying interaction structure of the person seeking help and their environment, with the goal of developing reciprocity. The perceived similarity between FGC, the Presence approach, MST, and Movement-as-anchor is most likely and primarily due to the involvement of the network, as well as the attention given to the context and the family system. The perceived similarities between VHT and Movement-as-an-anchor is probably because both intervention methods aim at stimulating or improving communication between parent and child. VHT shows successful or pleasant moments of contact to parents by means of video footage. For transfer of successful moments of contact, VHT mainly relies on verbal communication. Verbal communication can certainly be effective, but it also carries the danger of being open to various interpretations. Words such as friendly, kind, cosy, responsive, sensitive, or inviting can be subjectively interpreted. If people recognise ‘pleasant moments in video footage, this is helpful and a great tool for becoming aware of one’s own actions. However, if this does not work, then we need to express ourselves more precisely in terms of the therapist’s actions, and that is where Movement-as-anchor provides concrete guidance. Even in COPL, Floortime/FloorPlay, Heykoop Method, and Theraplay, communication and interaction between parent/therapist and child/client are central. The aim is to learn to ‘look differently’ at the client and their behaviour, paying attention to moments of togetherness and the emotional needs of the client. The success of these methods could potentially be attributed to the unconscious actions of the therapist. It is not unlikely that they utilise movement features such as direction, speed, distance, A
