- Attachment 1
- Caregiver-Infant Interactions
- Reciprocity
- Mother and infant respond to each other and can elicit responses in each other
- AKA "turn-taking" = vital for conversation
- Active Involvment
- Caregivers and infants play a role in starting interaction, and seems to take it in turns. Brazelton et al. 1975 therefore termed this a "dance" as you respond to your partner's moves
- Interactional Synchrony
- Caregiver and infant carry out the same actions simultaneously. Actions and s emotions are mirrored
- Meltzoff & Moore (1977)
- Found synchrony occurring with infants as young as 2 weeks old.
- Isabella et al. (1989)
- Observed 30 mothers and infants and assessed the degree of synchrony and then mother-infant attachment quality. More synchrony= better attachment
- Reciprocity
- Stages of Attachment. Schaffer & Emerson 1964
- 1. Asocial: Same reaction to humans as inanimate objects, yet prefers people, especially those more familiar
- Role of the Father
- 75% of the infants in Shaffer & Emerson's 1964 study had attached to their father by 18 months old
- The father forms a "playmate" role, more likely to allow and engage in "risky play". This attachment is the basis for all other social relationships into the infant's future
- The father role becomes increasingly important in the teen years, particularly for males
- Fathers can become the primary attachment and show the sensitivity and response this requires if for any reason they are the primary caregiver
- Primary attachment and responses between mother and baby aren't biological
- Fathers break the initial biological attachment between mother and infant
- Primary attachment and responses between mother and baby aren't biological
- Fathers can become the primary attachment and show the sensitivity and response this requires if for any reason they are the primary caregiver
- The father role becomes increasingly important in the teen years, particularly for males
- Lorenz 1952 VS Harlow 1958
- Lorenz 1952
- Divided a group of greylag geese eggs. Half incubated and half left in nest.
- Eggs he incubated imprinted on him and those in nest imprinted on mother goose
- Gees that had imprinted on Lorenz eventually searched for human mates
- Eggs he incubated imprinted on him and those in nest imprinted on mother goose
- Divided a group of greylag geese eggs. Half incubated and half left in nest.

- The Learning Theory
- The Learning Theory relies on the idea that the provider of food is the primary attachment figure, through operant and classical conditioning
- UCS > UCR
- Neutral Stimulus > No repsonse
- CS > CR
- Neutral Stimulus > No repsonse
- UCS > UCR
