literally the best teacher I have ever come across, so grateful!! got me 23/24 on my memory unit assessment binge watching for my mock now haha. Thankyou so much for all the effort you put into these videos, they truly help so much I actually understand psychology now!! never stop uploading these
Wow, thanks! Delighted the videos have been helping you achieve such great grades! Really appreciate your kind and encouraging comment 😀 More videos coming soon!
New here, your video and explanations are outstanding. They're simple but informative 👏🏽 I'm working toward my degree in social work, so learning how the brain develops and how/why it determines adulthood outcomes is imperative. I'll be watching the rest of your videos. Thanks so much!
Welcome 😀 Delighted you came across the channel and especially that the strange situation video was helpful for you! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment. All the best with your social work degree - hope the other videos are helpful too. Check out the videos on Bowlby's Maternal Deprivation Theory and the Romanian Orphans which is more content relevant to early development and its impact on adulthood
Hey i loveeee your videos they are so so useful but ive noticed that you dont have any videos on biopsychology, would you ever consider making them in the future because i think its the hardest topic in A level psychology and i know i would understand the topic a lot better if you made videos on them THANKS FOR THE HELPPP
Hi Sofia 😊 Thanks so much for your kind and encouraging comment. Delighted the videos are helping you 👍 And funny you should ask…I’m just about to finish Attachment and start Biopsychology next!
Good question - I found in reading different studies that some used one-way and others two-way. Quite confusing! But one-way is actually correct. Check this out: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-way_mirror
Proximity seeking in many ways is connected to them all - i.e. for exploration and secure base behaviour the level of proximity seeking (how much they return to the mother or not), influenced the type of attachment.
Did she test the mother with different children? I mean with first one of her children and then with another? Did she test the baby with both parents? First with the mother and then with the father, and switching off so that one baby is first tested with mother and the next baby is first tested with father.
Hi Diane - great questions. I hope the following is helpful and points you in the direction of where you can find some answers: A recent study in 2023 titled "The First 20,000 Strange Situation Procedures: A Meta-Analytic Review" provides interesting reading on the subject (Study link: discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/10173021/). From their analysis they reported the following: "Results revealed that the global distribution of SSP attachment was 51.6% secure, 14.7% avoidant, 10.2% resistant, and 23.5% disorganized. There were no differences in the distribution among mothers and fathers, and no child age or sex differences." Further reading of this meta-analysis, notably the Discussion section, includes the following: "Parent Gender. The distribution for infant-mother secure attachment was 51.2%, and for fathers it was 61.2%. While these percentages vary, they were not statistically different. Our distribution results are consistent with a meta-analysis by De Wolff and Van IJzendoorn (1997) of eight studies that showed that the distribution of secure attachment among mothers and fathers was not statistically different. Combined with evidence showing that father-child attachment relationships hold comparable associations with developmental outcomes, such as behavior problems (Deneault et al., 2021), these findings suggest that attachment relationships are comparable regardless of parental gender, which is an important contribution to the literature." If you follow the link to the article you can focus in on the more specific areas that might relate to each of your questions. Hope that helps 😀
@@BearitinMIND Thank you. I also know that human adults have different personalities, preferences and manners of interacting (think extrovert, introvert, easy going, rigid, etc) as well as different brain chemistries. How might these kinds of factors affect babies? I am so tired of society and studies blaming the mother.
@@dianedavidson5283 Very good questions - I have to say that I've not read the latest research on this particular area in relation to personality types and brain chemistries. From what I have read in the literature, the relationship a child forms with their caregiver in their early years of life is highly important - and such psychological findings have gone to shape society and policy so that parents are supported in ways that enable them to have time to develop this attachment. Thanks for your questions and engagement with the topic - keep on exploring!
The 4th attachment type is briefly covered at 08:49: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MGDo6ktUXOA.htmlsi=6Jqgt2jHPS74Fzrl&t=529 And if you want to explore a 5th attachment type check this video out on the Romanian Orphans: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gYzXvt15sLI.htmlsi=FM0j4Z6byo821NVe
