Harry’s Harlow Monkeys Experiement
monkeys got a wire fake mom that dispensed food or a stuffed animal, even though the wire one dispensed food the monkeys went to the stuffed animal

Monkeys/humans formulate attachment with comfort ex: skin to skin contact
28
Konrad Lorenzo's Ducks
imprint on whatever they see first when they hatch or are around them the most
29
John Bowlby's interest in humans
asked how humans formulate attachment. (interaction, physical contact, closeness) ex: babies cry to keep parents close by
30
primary caregiver
the person that responds to the baby's responses the most is the person children attach to, isn't always paternal
31
Mary Ainseworth
made the "strange situation" to understand human attachment with kids to their caretakers, the study isn’t concrete
32
Strange Situation Experiment
Puts baby in a room and has mom come and go. What is the kids reaction to mother leaving? What is the kids reaction to mother coming back?
33
Secure attachment
- kid sad when mom leaves, happy when she comes back - child centered home -kids needs priority
34
Avoidant attachment-
kid doesn’t react to mom leaving, kid doesn’t react when mom comes back. Mary said child is neglected, parent-centered home, parents’ needs take priority
34
Insecure attachment styles:
avoidant, ambivalent, disorganized
35
Longitudinal research
study same participants for years, expensive, and hard. These studies are really good for solid evidence
35
Disorganized attachment
no clear pattern, but when the mom came back the kid would stop then slowly approach the mom. Mary said the kid was abused, kid doesn’t know how mom will react
35
Ambivalent attachment
kid will not let mom go, kid is hsyerical when mom leaves, when mom comes back the kid is happy but the kid gives distance to mom. Mary said there was inconsistency, either present or neglectful.
36

personality, nature

relationships (similar to attachments)
39
Secure relationships
secure people that have trust in their relationship
40
Avoidant relationships
you have something they want, they ask about you (great daters) they want to get something from you
41
Ambivalent relationships
no trust in relationship, lots of attention/obsessive/clingy, "love bombing"
42
Disorganized relationships
abusive in the relationship
43
Jonathan Haidt
social psychologist who studied morality and claims “morality is intuition”, people will come to a moral conclusion and find things to justify that opinion
44
Realism to Relativism
kids moral reasoning in the beginning is seen as right or wrong, very black and white views; as we grow up we see the gray area (“you do you”)
45
Prescriptions to Principles-
kids are given rules/limitations (sharing, patience → fairness) are turned into something abstract like fairness and equity which beocmes our personal values
46
Outcomes and Intentions
kids care about the outcome, adults don’t hold people as morally accountable if the intent to cause harm/pain was not there
47
Lawrence Kohlberg
moral physcologist, wanted to show there were superior ways of thinking in moral situations
48
Preconventional stage
-lowest quality -looks at consequences or the outcomes -bad feelings result of bad behavior (in Kohlbergs opinion)
49
Conventional stage
middle quality of moral reasoning, maintaining social harmony, looking at rules/laws, not consequences (in Kohlbers opinion)
