Bowlyb's Evolutionary theory-
A01:
Attachement- innate human survival mechanism.
*Maintains proximity to caretaker
*Provides secure safe base for child to explore the world.
*Helps child regulate emotions.

> Child selects special attachment figure (monotropy)
>Attachment must occur within Critical period (2.5 years)...or there will be long lasting negative effects.
>Will effect emotional and intellectual development.
Primary attachment= Template for future social relationships
Internal working model=Realtionship with primary caregiver gives expectations for fututre relationships.
Continuity hypothesis=Attachment type remains stable as child develops (stable child=stable adult)
Maternal deprivation= Primary and full dep:
Primary:Leads to anxiety, depression and excessive need for love.
Full:(Lack for 1st 6 months) leads to impossiblity of making bonds.

A02:
Supporting Bowlby=
*Goldfarb - Looked at kids growing up in institutions
*Spitz and Wolf -observed mothers in penal institutions caring for babies for 1st year.
*Rhesus -Monkeys: wanted comfort not food.

Opposing Bowlby=
*Rutter - studided group of delinquents on the isle of wight and found no connection between delinquency and seperation form mother.
