Research on monotropy
and multiple attachments
- BOWLBY (1969)
- Infants need one special
attachment relationship in order to
develop a (positive) internal working
model, which is the basis for all
other relationships
- The internal working model is an organismal
schema that is concerned with the relationship
between oneself and one's primary caregiver
- Without having one primary
sensitive caregiver, an infant
would be unable to form an
internal working model which
would have a negative effect on
their future relationships

attachment relationship in order to
develop a (positive) internal working

attachments with many caregivers and still
develop into psychologically healthy adults
