In order to see how particular attachment types affect later development.
Is the Strange Situation reliable?
-Development of children often took place at around the same time in various cases.
Is the StrangeSituation not reliable?
-Attachments could MEAN DIFFERENT THINGS to different people e.g. SECURELY ATTACHED TO MOTHER BUT NOT FATHER.
--->Thus SSR evaluates particular relationships
What did VAN IJZENDOORN state?
-Children have relationships of different qualities- wouldnt it be better to evaluate ALL RELATIONSHIPS and gain an AVERAGE.
--->SS is valid but needs to look at more than one relationship
What are the causes of attachments?
1)AINSWORTH ET AL: CAREGIVER SENSITIVITY: Schaffer and Emerson
2)KAGAN: TEMPERAMENT HYPOTHESIS: innate characteristics of the child.
