Harlow and Suomi (1972) raised 4 newborn male monkeys in total isolation for 6 months and then placed each one with a normally raised 3 month old female ‘therapist’ monkey for 2 hours 3 times a week, gradually increasing the amount of contact time.
After 12 months, their behaviour was almost normal and by 3 years old, what happened?

A

After 12 months, their behaviour was almost normal and by 3 years old, they:

  1. Had totally recovered
  2. Were able to live among normally raised monkeys

Q

The findings of Harlow et al’s (1965) study suggest that social interactions are essential for normal social and emotional development to occur.

After 12 months, their behaviour was almost normal and by 3 years old, they had totally recovered and were able to live among normally raised monkeys.
What does this suggest?

A

This suggests that the effects of total isolation are reversible

Q

Evaluation:

Harlow’s isolation studies influenced who?

A

Harlow’s isolation studies influenced Bowlby

21
Q

Evaluation:

Harlow’s isolation studies influenced Bowlby in doing what?

A

Harlow’s isolation studies influenced Bowlby in devising his maternal deprivation hypothesis

22
Q

Evaluation:

Harlow’s isolation studies influenced Bowlby in devising his maternal deprivation hypothesis, where he saw what?

A

Harlow’s isolation studies influenced Bowlby in devising his maternal deprivation hypothesis, where he saw any disruption of the attachment bond as having serious, irreversible effects

23
Q

Evaluation:
Who (what year), a student of Harlow’s, believes that Harlow’s research was so unjustifiably unethical that what was born out of it?

A

Sackett (2002), a student of Harlow’s, believes that Harlow’s research was so unjustifiably unethical that the American animal liberation movement was born out of it

24
Q

Harlow’s research raises serious ethical concerns as to the degree of harm it caused to monkeys, many of whom died.
Harlow’s wife died in 1971 from cancer, plummeting him into severe depression (treated with electroconvulsive therapy, ECT), after which he developed a morbid interest in the origins of mental illness, which may explain his what?

A

Harlow’s wife died in 1971 from cancer, plummeting him into severe depression (treated with electroconvulsive therapy, ECT), after which he developed a morbid interest in the origins of mental illness, which may explain his:
