Imprinting - ANSWER The process by which birds and other infrahuman animals develop a

birth.
Insecure-ambivalent attachment - ANSWER Babies tend to become very upset at the
departure of their mothers and exhibit inconsistent behavior on the mother's return, sometimes
seeking contact, sometimes pushing their mothers away. (This is sometimes referred to as insecure-
resistant or anxious-ambivalent attachment.)
Insecure-resistant or anxious-ambivalent attachment - ANSWER Insecure-ambivalent
attachment is also called...
Insecure-avoidant attachment - ANSWER Babies seem not to be bothered by their mother's
brief absences but specifically avoid her when she returns, sometimes becoming visibly upset.

when reunited with their mother after separation.
Internal working model - ANSWER A person's mental representation of himself or herself as
a child, his or her parents, and the nature of his or her interaction with the parents as he or she
reconstructs and interprets that interaction.
Maternal bond - ANSWER Feeling of attachment or bond by a mother to her infant, perhaps
influenced by early postnatal contact.
Secure attachment - ANSWER Babies are able to explore novel environments, are minimally
disturbed by brief separations from their parents, and are quickly comforted by their parents when
they return.
Secure base - ANSWER A safety zone that the infant can retreat to for comfort and
reassurance when stressed or frightened while exploring the environment.
Separation distress or protest - ANSWER An infant's distress reaction to being separated
from the attachment object, usually the mother, which typically peaks at about 15 months of age.
Strange Situation Procedure (SSP) - ANSWER A research scenario in which parent and child
are separated and reunited so that investigators can assess the nature and quality of the parent-infant
attachment relationship.
Adult Attachment Interview (AAI) - ANSWER Developed by Mary Main and her colleagues.
, In this interview, adults are questioned about their childhood relationships with their parents, and
based on the coherence of their narratives, are classified into one of three groups (autonomous,
dismissing, preoccupied)
Autonomous adults/attachment - ANSWER These adults reveal in their interviews that
although they value close relationships with their parents and others, they talk in an internally
consistent and seemingly objective manner about these childhood relationships.
They tend not to idealize their own parents but have a clear understanding of their relationships with
them and are able to describe both their positive and negative traits.
Mother is not dealing with unresolved concerns about her own experience and thus is able to be
sensitive to her child's communications.
Dismissing adults/attachment - ANSWER These adults dismiss and devalue attachment and
often claim that they cannot recall incidents from their childhoods.
When they do remember anything, it is often a recollection of an idealized parent: "I had the world's
greatest mom!"
Mother is reluctant to acknowledge her own attachment needs and thus is insensitive and
unresponsive to her child's needs.
Preoccupied adults/attachment - ANSWER These adults are preoccupied with earlier family
attachments.
They recall many conflict‐ridden incidents from their childhoods and cannot organize them into a
coherent pattern.
Mother is confused about her attachment history and thus is inconsistent in her interactions with her
child.
secure - ANSWER A child who has an autonomous mother is likely to have what kind of
attachment? (secure, insecure-avoidant, or insecure-ambivalent?)
insecure-avoidant - ANSWER A child who has a dismissing mother is likely to have what kind
of attachment? (secure, insecure-avoidant, or insecure-ambivalent?)
insecure-ambivalent - ANSWER A child who has a preoccupied mother is likely to have what
kind of attachment? (secure, insecure-avoidant, or insecure-ambivalent?)
Attachment Q-set - ANSWER Is based on a lengthy observation of the child at home or on the
judgment of the parent or other caregiver who knows the child well.
The mother, other caregiver, or observer sorts a set of 90 cards containing phrases that describe a
child's behavior into sets ranging from those that are most descriptive of the child to those that are
least descriptive.
This method, which is useful for children between the ages of 1-5 years, provides a score reflecting
how much children resemble a prototypically securely attached child, but it DOES NOT classify the
type of attachment insecurity
