John Bowlby (1907-1990)
  1. Defintion
    1. AB: ‘any form of behaviour that results in a person attaining or maintaining proximity to some other clearly identified individual who is conceived as better able to cope with the world. It is most obvious whenever the person is frightened, fatigued, or sick, and is assuaged by comforting and caregiving’ (Bowlby, 1982: 668).
      1. strong emotional bond (infant & caregiver)
      2. History
        1. Psychoanalytical
          1. normal resolution of the oral stage of psychosexual dev - oral needs (e.g. sucking) are met
          2. Behavioural
            1. formed through reinforcement: food =PR -> associated with mother = SR
          3. 1940
            1. maladjusted’ children, who were affectionless and prone to stealing and traced their symptoms to histories of maternal deprivation and separation.
            2. 1948 (with J Robertson)
              1. observed the distress hospitalised children separated from their parents experienced (protest, despair and detachment) = WHO report (1951).
              2. 1958
                1. first formal statement of attachment theory
                  1. at birth, babies are equipped with species-characteristic instinctual behaviours that promote proximity with a caregiver (e.g. crying, smiling).
                    1. infant able to discriminate between people and direct these behaviours appropriately. With development of internal representations of principal caregivers, infant can form attachments.
                    2. Stage theory of attachment
                      1. Pre-attachment: (0-2months) indiscriminate social responsiveness
                        1. Attachment in the making (1-6months) orientation to social stimuli directed towards one or more discriminated caregivers
                          1. clear-cut attachment (6-30months) maintenance of proximity to attachment figures, separation protest and wariness of strangers.
                            1. Goal-corrected partnership (24-48months) insight into the caregiver’s feelings & goals leading to co-operative interaction & partnership.
                        2. Schaffer and Emerson (1964):60 infants (2-yrs) measured separation protest & stranger anxiety. 1/2 showed 1st specific attachment between 6-8months, Fear of strangers began about a month later (stage 2 & 3 of B’s theory). 18 months 87% had more than one attachment figure; 75% had attached to the father, mother was most commonly.
                          1. role of the primary caregiver is to provide a safe haven in the event of a threat and a secure base from which to explore the environment = basis for MA theory
                        3. Internal Working model
                          1. From birth, the infant gradually construct expectations of regularities in what happens to them. They then organises these expectations internally into ‘Internal Working Models’.
                            1. (1969): a child’s attachment relationship with their primary caregiver leads to the development of an internal working model. This internal working model is a cognitive framework comprising mental representations for understanding the world, self and others. They can be of the physical environment, of ourselves, of others, or of relationships.
                              1. Internal working models of the self and primary caregiver have special significance (‘attachment representations’): If the primary caregiver is available and supportive, a working model of the self as ‘lovable’ is constructed or, if the caregiver is rejecting, the model of the self is constructed as being unworthy. i.e. when your young, the way others treat you influences how you see yourself.
                                1. A person’s interaction with others is guided by memories and expectations from their internal model which influence and help evaluate their contact with others (Bretherton, & Munholland, 1999). Around the age of three these seem to become part of a child’s personality and thus affects their understanding of the world and future interactions with others (Schore, 2000).
                                2. According to Bowlby (1969) the primary caregiver acts as a prototype for future relationships via the internal working model. There are three main features of the internal working model: (1) a model of others as being trustworthy, (2) a model of the self as valuable, and (3) a model of the self as effective when interacting with others
                                  1. It is this mental representation that guides future social and emotional behavior as the child’s internal working model guides their responsiveness to others in general.
                              2. Bartholomew and Horowitz (1991) model of adult attachment
                                1. Securely: positive views of both self and others, comfortable with either intimacy or autonomy (Bartholomew & Horowitz, 1991). like securely attached infants
                                  1. Preoccupied: negative view of self and a positive view of others, due to inconsistent care giving.
                                    1. fearful attachment: negative views of both self and others. socially avoidant because they are fearful of their own vulnerability in intimacy.
                                      1. Dismissing: positive view of self and a negative view of others, due to earl unresponsive care.
                                2. Intergenerational continuity
                                  1. parent's early attachment experiences led to their attachment style (dismissing, autonomous, or preoccupied) which then influences their parenting behaviour therefore influencing their child’s attachment experiences and so on
                                    1. van Ijzendoorn (1995): meta-analysis of 18 studies = correlation between parent’s attachment and infant’s attachments.
                                3. changing styles
                                  1. developmental outcomes are dependent on entire history of experience, as well as current circumstances, not just early care. Therefore, you can create a secure attachment later in life through others.
                                    1. Roisman et al (2002): 23yr & found that individuals can overcome early negative childhood experiences and develop secure working models, referring to these as ‘Earned secure’ people.
                                      1. Scharf (2001): Israeli kibbutz = even in childhood, internal working models can change. This was shown through Children who switched to family sleeping arrangements aged between 3 and 6 years showed no difference in attachment representations from family-reared adolescents.
                                    2. Biology
                                      1. 1969: believed that adult attachment style remains linked to the psychological and biological systems that regulate threat appraisal, stress response, and recovery from stress.
                                        1. Shaver and Mikulincer (2007): Individuals high in attachment anxiety are hyper-reactive to threats, tend to report greater levels of perceived stress, and also are much more likely to ruminate over the event
                                          1. Shaver and Mikulincer (2007): Those high in attachment avoidance are more likely to employ defensive regulation mechanisms, such as repression, to allow them to control unpleasant emotionally stressful situations
