Influence of Attachment and Separation Experience on Separation Distress at 18 Months.
Jacobson, Joseph L; Wille, Diane E.
Developmental Psychology, v20 n3 p477-84 May 1984
Distress in response to brief maternal separations was examined in a sample of 93 predominantly home-reared infants using the Ainsworth strange situation paradigm. At 18 months, the age when separation protests begin to decline, securely attached infants are better able than anxiously attached infants to tolerate maternal separations. (Author/RH)
