About attachment mind maps
GoConqr OriginalUsing attachment mind maps
Start with “Strange Situation Mary Ainsworth” if you want to follow a study procedure. Its branches set out what happens as a parent, child and stranger enter the room. For a different starting point, “Bowlby’s Theory of Attachment” maps ideas about attachment as adaptive and innate.
Other maps focus on evidence. “Classic evidence: Bowlby (1944)” includes methodology and participants, while the map on Takahashi’s cross-cultural study covers aims, procedures, findings and evaluation. These give you different ways to organise revision around a study.
Move between formats
Follow the branches of a map, then try recalling its main points without looking. Return to any branch you missed and check the detail. When you want to test recall in a different format, switch to a quiz on the Attachment unit page, then return to the map if you need another look.
Choose a map and follow its branches at your own pace.
