3.7 Strange Situation
  1. Ainsworth (1969)
    1. Performed a controlled observation designed to measure the security of attachment. 5 behaviours were judged: proximity seeking, exploration, stranger and separation anxiety, and reunion.
      1. 7 stages:
        1. 1. Baby encouraged to explore.
          1. 2. Stranger comes in and approaches the baby.
            1. 3. Baby and stranger left alone.
              1. 4. Caregiver returns
                1. 5. Baby is left alone
                  1. 6. Stranger returns
                    1. 7. Reunion with caregiver
                    2. Findings: 3 Attachment types
                      1. A: Insecure Avoidant - Little to no reaction when caregiver leaves. Makes little effort and may avoid contact upon reunion.
                        1. 15%
                        2. B: Secure Attachment - Moderate separation distress and stranger anxiety. Requires and accepts comfort during reunion.
                          1. 70%
                          2. C: Insecure Resistant - Seeks greater levels of proximity, high levels of separation and stranger distress. Resists comfort when reunited with caregiver.
                            1. 15%
                        3. Evaluation
                          1. Strengths:
                            1. Interreliability between observers.
                              1. Predicts aspects of later development. Showed that securely attached babies had better later attachments. Suggests that strange situation measures something real.
                              2. Weaknesses:
                                1. May not be valid in other countries.
                                  1. Lacks population validity. Original study used American infants which cant be generalised to other countries.
