Abstract

According to Bowlby (1969/1982), attachment constitutes the first affective bond that the child forms with the primary caregiver. Bowlby, drawing from object relations theory, suggested that in the first year of life it is in the infant’s interest to seek out proximity to the attachment figure when under stress (Bretherton 1985). Thus, to foster proximity, the child and mother are involved in many interactions. According to Bowlby, the responsiveness of the mother to the child’s signals will determine the nature of their relationship, which the child will internalize via working models. The working model comprises the representation of the child’s knowledge about the world and about significant persons in the world, including the self (Bowlby 1969/1982). These models are useful in guiding behaviors in new situations
