A collection of observations that has led us to a set of concepts/propositions that helps us to organize, describe and predict behavior
Lay Beliefs and Parental Behavior
Theories about child rearing help us understand parenting and prescribe the ways in which parents should behave.

- Anal (12 month to 3 year stage)
- Phallic Stage (3-6 yrs)
- Latency (6-12 years old)
- Genital Stage (12+)
Attachment Theory
- (Freud) The HEART OF ATTACHMENT THEORY: First to identify that there’s a realtionship between early life experience and later developmental outcomes.
- Harry Harlow’s work
- Main idea of attachment theory: Love is paramount in appropriate and typical development
- Mary Ainsworth (Bowlby’s student)

Sensitive parenting
at minimum, the parent responds promptly and appropriately as well as is available to help calm a distressed infant and help/ him self-regulate.
Secure
- using mom as secure base
- Secure: my needs will be known and met, I will be attuned to and emotionally regulated and I can freely explore my environment safely.
- When mom is in new environment, they wanna check it out but they keep going back to their mom
- Want child to be eager to explore independently but also to keep checking in
- Notices when mom leaves and protests
- When mom returns infant goes straight to mom and then returns to play
Anxious avoidant
- Doesn’t use mom as secure base
- Isn’t upset when mom leaves
- Ignores care giver
- Either approach or ignore the mom when she returns
- Unique from anxious resistant because of lack of protest when mom leaves!
Anxious resistant (ambivalent)
- Doesn’t use mom as secure base
- When caregiver departs is extremely upset and can’t be comforted
- When mom comes back is like “whatever, forget you”
Disorganized
The most damaging form of parenting is not consistently bad parenting, it’s unpredictable parenting!
Insecure
Insecure: emotional needs won’t be met, hold tightly to whatever you get (anxious resistant) or repress emotions, forget you, don’t need it any way (anxious avoidant)
Classical Conditioning:
Watson and Pavlov: Classical conditioning involves learning a new behavior merely by the process of association
1) Unconditioned stimulus: you will react naturally to something
2) Conditioned Stimulus: what you introduce and pair with the unconditioned stimulus
Operant Conditioning
REINFORCEMENT OR PUNISHMENT
