Attachment Security of 12 Month Old Korean Infants: Relations with Maternal Sensitivity and Infants' Temperament.
Park, Kyung Ja
Early Child Development and Care, v167 p27-38 Apr 2001
Examined relationship of maternal sensitivity and infant temperament to attachment security among Korean 1-year-olds. Found that securely attached infants showed more secure-base behaviors and compliance, enjoyed physical contact, and showed fewer fussy/difficult behaviors than did other infants. Infant gender, but not security status, related to maternal sensitivity. Boys of sensitive mothers were less compliant than boys of insensitive mothers. (Author/KB)
