Document Summary
Atachment and love are necessary but not suicient to maintain relaionship. Must be a purposeful posiive relaionship behaviours. Maladapive parental behaviours: physically unable to be there for child; chaoic. Atachment system=proximity seeking acions; sharing emoional and physical space. Insecure atachment predicts developmental struggles, mood irregulariies, hard to cooperate with: fragile relaionships and hard to ind new ones. Strange situaion assessment: process of child, caregiver, stranger exiing and entering room strategically, rate atachment as secure, insecure-avoidant, insercure-resistant. Acions of love are perceived diferently by westerns and easterns: easterns describe it as trust, respect, guidance; western disagrees. Love also diferent for males and females: males saw it as money; females saw it as listening/talking/physical afecion. Cogniive model and mindful state of how we see world, gather info, make decisions: posiive mindful state is obviously beter, negaive can lead to diiculty overcoming desires; faulty relaionships. Re-assess labels of caregiver experiment into 4 categories: secure, dismissing, preoccupied, unresolved/disorganized, adult-atachment interview (aai) becomes gold standard.
