- Deprivation: situations in which attachment is broken- temporarily or permanently.
- Evaluation of Robertson and Robertson
- Buficulo et all suggested that the negative effects may only surface if there are triggers later in life.
- Barrett found that not all children are effected by emotional deprivation because securely attached children coped well.
