bowlbys theory of attachment SOMAGIC
social releasers
babies are born with a set of innate cute behaviours there are social releasers because their purpose is to attach to adults
has to be reciprocal
monotropy
forming one special attachment with your mother
bowlby placed the emphasis on a child's development to one primary caregiver
law of continuity: more constant and predictable a child's care the better quality of attachment
law of accumulated separation: the effects of every separation from the mother add up
adaptive advantage
attachments enable us to effectively adapt to our environment e.g learning to walk and being fed so that we are more likely to survive
Bowlby saw humans like other animals we need an innate tendency to form attachments with a caregiver
good quality care
all about quality not quantity of care so mothers are responsive to their childs needs
internal working model
your first template schema for your adult relationships in the future
internal working model serves as a model for what future relationships should be like
if a child has a loving relationship with mother then their future relationship will be secure
if they suffer poor treatment then they will portray that
critical period
babies must form an attachment within the first 12 months otherwise they would be damaged socially emotionally and intellectually
as reciprocity grows between baby and parent then an attachment is formed
