A Comparison of the Mother's and a Stranger's Control over the Behavior of Infants
Corter, Carl M.
Child Development, 44, 4, 705-713, Dec 73
In a study of attachment behavior 10-month-old infants were observed under three conditions: with the mother, with an adult female stranger, and when both were present. Infants directed more social responses to the mother, but the stranger evoked more exploration behavior than distress. (ST)
