Because RAD is lacking a background of significant research due to its rarity, the causes and risk factors as to why children develop reactive attachment disorder are not entirely conclusive. Some examples of causes that have been linked to possibly impacting the development of RAD include:
Central Nervous System (Brain and Spinal Cord) and Peripheral Nervous System (Cranial Nerves, Spinal Nerves, and Ganglia). This is the control center for the entire nervous system.All body sensations must be relayed from receptors to the CNS if they are to be interpreted and acted on. All of the nerve impulses that stimulate muscles to contract and glands to secrete must also originate in the CNS.

The central nervous system (CNS) is the processing center for the nervous system. It receives information from and sends information to the peripheral nervous system. The two main organs of the CNS are the brain and spinal cord. The brain processes and interprets sensory information sent from the spinal cord. Both the brain and spinal cord are protected by three layers of connective tissue called the meninges. Within the central nervous system is a system of hollow cavities called ventricles.
