The Influence of Sensitive Care on Attachment Behavior
Abstract
J. Bowlby's (e.g., 1980) adaptational theory, based on research of the infant and child in the context of attachment behavior, is an example of the instinctive behavior that decreases the risk of danger and increases safety. The role of fathers and mothers in shaping attachment behavior are different. Research indicates that attachment patterns are highly dependent on the nature of mothering received in the first year.
