Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy Identify styles of temperament and explore Describe the infant emotions , stranger wariness , and separation anxiety Describe the early theories of attachment Contrast styles of attachment according to the Strange Situation Technique Explain the factors that influence attachment Use theory to characterize psychosocial development during infancy Temperament Perhaps you have spent time with a number of infants . How were they alike ?

How did they differ ?

How do you compare with your siblings or other children you have known well ?

You may have Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy noticed that some seemed to be in a better mood than others and that some were more sensitive to noise or more easily distracted than others . These differences may be attributed to temperament . Temperament is the innate characteristics of the infant , including mood , activity level , and emotional reactivity , noticeable soon after birth . In a 1956 landmark study , Chess and Thomas ( 1996 ) evaluated 141 children temperament based on parental interviews . Referred to as the New York Longitudinal Study , infants were assessed on dimensions of temperament including Activity level , rhythmicity ( regularity of biological functions ) how children deal with new things ) adaptability to situations , intensity of reactions , threshold of responsiveness ( how intense a stimulus has to be for the child to react ) quality of mood , distractibility , attention span , and persistence . Based on the infants behavioral profiles , they were categorized into three general types of temperament Easy Child ( 40 ) who is able to quickly adapt to routine and new situations , remains calm , is easy to soothe , and usually is in a positive mood . Difficult Child ( 10 ) who reacts negatively to new situations , has trouble adapting to routine , is usually negative in mood , and cries frequently . Child ( 15 ) has a low activity level , adjusts slowly to new situations and is often negative in mood . As can be seen the percentages do not equal 100 as some children were not able to be placed neatly into one of the categories . Think about how you might approach each type of child in order to improve your interactions with them . An easy child will not need much extra attention , while a slow to warm up child may need to be given advance warning if new people or situations are going to be introduced . A difficult child may need to be given extra time to burn off their energy . A caregiver ability to work well and accurately 426 Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy

read the child will enjoy a , meaning their styles match and communication and interaction can flow . Parents who recognize each child temperament and accept it , will nurture more effective interactions with the child and encourage more adaptive functioning . For example , an adventurous child whose parents regularly take her outside on hikes would provide a good fit to her temperament . Parenting is bidirectional Not only do parents affect their children , children influence their parents . Child characteristics , such as temperament , affect parenting behaviors and roles . For example , an infant with an easy temperament may enable parents to feel more effective , as they are easily able to soothe the child and elicit smiling and cooing . On the other hand , a cranky or fussy infant elicits fewer positive reactions from his or her parents and may result in parents feeling less effective in the parenting role ( et , 2008 ) Over time , parents of more difficult children may become more punitive and less patient with their children ( Clark , Ready , 2000 et , 1999 , 2011 ) Parents who have a fussy , difficult child are less satisfied with their marriages and have greater challenges in balancing work and family roles ( Hyde , Goldsmith , 2004 ) Thus , child temperament is one of the child characteristics that influence how parents behave with their children . Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy 427

Temperament does not change dramatically as we grow up , but we may learn how to work around and manage our temperamental qualities . Temperament may be one of the things about us that stays the same throughout development . In contrast , personality , defined as an individual consistent pattern of feeling , thinking , and behaving , is the result of the continuous interplay between biological disposition and experience . Personality also develops from temperament in other ways ( Thompson , Winer , 2010 ) As children mature biologically , temperamental characteristics emerge and change over time . A newborn is not capable of much , but as capacities for control advance , temperamental changes in become more apparent . For example , a newborn who cries frequently does not necessarily have a grumpy personality over time , with sufficient parental support and an increased sense of security , the child might be less likely to cry . In addition , personality is made up of many other features besides temperament . Children developing , their motivations to achieve or to socialize , their values and goals , their coping styles , 428 Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy

their sense of responsibility and conscientiousness , and many other qualities are encompassed into personality . These qualities are influenced by biological dispositions , but even more by the child experiences with others , particularly in close relationships , that guide the growth of individual characteristics . Indeed , personality development begins with the biological foundations of temperament but becomes increasingly elaborated , extended , and refined over time . The newborn that parents gazed upon becomes an adult with a personality of depth and nuance . Infant Emotions At birth , infants exhibit two emotional responses Attraction and withdrawal . They show attraction to pleasant situations that bring comfort , stimulation , and pleasure , and they withdraw from unpleasant stimulation such as bitter flavors or physical discomfort . At around two months , infants exhibit social engagement in the form of social smiling as they respond with smiles to those who engage their positive attention ( 2005 ) Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy 429

ure Social smiling becomes more stable and organized as infants learn to use their smiles to engage their parents in interactions . Pleasure is expressed as laughter at to months of age , and displeasure becomes more specific as fear , sadness , or anger between ages and months . Anger is often the reaction to being prevented from obtaining a goal , such as a toy being removed ( 2010 ) In contrast , sadness is typically the response when infants are deprived of a caregiver ( 2007 ) Fear is often associated with the presence of a stranger , known as stranger wariness , or the departure of significant others known as separation anxiety . Both appear sometime between and 15 months after object permanence has been acquired . Further , there is some indication that infants may experience jealousy as young as months of age ( Hart , 2002 ) 430 Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy

Emotions are often divided into two general categories Basic emotions , such as interest , happiness , anger , fear , surprise , sadness and disgust , which appear first , and emotions , such as envy , pride , shame , guilt , doubt , and embarrassment . Unlike primary emotions , secondary emotions appear as children start to develop a and require social instruction on when to feel such emotions . The situations in which children learn conscious emotions vary from culture to culture . Individualistic cultures teach us to feel pride in personal accomplishments , while in more collective cultures children are taught to not call attention to themselves unless you wish to feel embarrassed for doing so ( 1999 ) Facial expressions of emotion are important regulators of social interaction . In the developmental literature , this has been investigated under the concept of social referencing that is , the process whereby infants seek out information from others to clarify a situation and then use that information to act ( Campos , 1983 ) To date , the strongest demonstration of social referencing comes from work on the visual cliff . In the first study to investigate this concept , Campos , and ( 1985 ) placed mothers on the far end of the cliff from the infant . Mothers first smiled to the infants and placed a toy on top of the safety glass to attract them infants invariably began crawling to their mothers . When the infants were in the center of the table , however , the mother then posed an expression of fear , sadness , anger , interest , or joy . The results were clearly different for the different faces no infant crossed the table when the mother showed fear only did when the mother posed anger , 33 crossed when the mother posed sadness , and approximately 75 of the infants crossed when the mother posed joy or interest . Other studies provide similar support for facial expressions as regulators of social interaction . Experimenters posed facial expressions of neutral , anger , or disgust toward babies as they moved toward an object and measured the amount of inhibition Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy I 431

the babies showed in touching the object ( 1986 ) The results for and olds were the same Anger produced the greatest inhibition , followed by disgust , with neutral the least . This study was later replicated using joy and disgust expressions , altering the method so that the infants were not allowed to touch the toy ( compared with a object ) until one hour after exposure to the expression ( Campos , 2004 ) At 14 months of age , significantly more infants touched the toy when they saw joyful expressions , but fewer touched the toy when the infants saw disgust . A final emotional change is in . Emotional regulation refers to strategies we use to control our emotional states so that we can attain goals ( Thompson , 2007 ) This requires effortful control of emotions and initially requires assistance from caregivers ( Posner , 2006 ) Young infants have very limited capacity to adjust their emotional states and depend on their caregivers to help soothe themselves . Caregivers can offer distractions to redirect the infants attention and comfort to reduce the emotional distress . As areas of the infants prefrontal cortex continue to develop , infants can tolerate more stimulation . By to months , babies can begin to shift their attention away from upsetting stimuli ( et al , 2006 ) Older infants and toddlers can more effectively communicate their need for help and can crawl or walk toward or away from various situations ( Cole , Armstrong , 2010 ) This aids in their ability to . Temperament also plays a role in ability to control their emotional states , and individual differences have been noted in the emotional of infants and toddlers ( Bates , 2006 ) Development of sense of self During the second year of life , children begin to recognize themselves as they gain a sense of self as object . In a classic experiment by Lewis and Brooks ( 1978 ) children to 24 months of age were placed in front of a mirror 432 Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy

after a spot of rouge was placed on their nose as their mothers pretended to wipe something off the child face . If the child reacted by touching his or her own nose rather that of the baby in the mirror , it was taken to suggest that the child recognized the reflection as or herself . Lewis and Brooks found that somewhere between 15 and 24 months most infants developed a sense of . is the realization that you are separate from others ( 2011 ) Once a child has achieved , the child is moving toward understanding social emotions such as guilt , shame or embarrassment , as well as , sympathy or empathy . Forming Attachments Attachment is the close bond with a caregiver from which the infant derives a sense of security . The formation of attachments in infancy has been the subject of considerable research as attachments have Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy 433

been viewed as foundations for future relationships . Additionally , attachments form the basis for confidence and curiosity as toddlers , and as important influences on . credit Peter Shanks ) Freud Psychoanalytic Theory According to Freud ( 1938 ) infants are oral creatures who obtain pleasure from sucking and mouthing objects . Freud believed the infant will become attached to a person or object that provides this pleasure . Consequently , infants were believed to become attached to their mother because she was the one who satisfied their oral needs and provided pleasure . Freud further believed that the infants will become attached to their mothers if the mother is relaxed and generous in her feeding practices , thereby allowing the child a lot of oral pleasure , 1985 , 435 ) Was Freud correct in his explanation for why infants became attached ?

Harlow Research In one classic study showing if nursing was the most important factor to attachment , Wisconsin University psychologists Harry and Margaret Harlow investigated the responses of young monkeys . The infants were separated from their biological mothers , and two surrogate mothers were introduced to their cages . One , the wire mother , consisted of a round wooden 434 Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy

head , a mesh of cold metal wires , and a bottle of milk from which the baby monkey could drink . The second mother was a rubber form wrapped in a heated blanket . The infant monkeys went to the wire mother for food , but they overwhelmingly preferred and spent significantly more time with the warm cloth mother . The warm mother provided no food but did provide comfort ( Harlow , 1958 ) The infants need for physical closeness and touching is referred to as contact comfort . Contact comfort is believed to be the foundation for attachment . The ' studies confirmed that babies have social as well as physical needs . Both monkeys and human babies need a secure base that allows them to feel safe . From this base , they can gain the confidence they need to venture out and explore their worlds . Theory Building on the work of Harlow and others , John developed the concept of attachment theory . He defined attachment as the affectional bond or tie that an infant forms with the mother ( 1969 ) An infant must form this bond with a primary caregiver in order to have normal social and emotional development . In addition , proposed that this attachment bond is very powerful and continues throughout life . He used the concept of a secure base to define a healthy attachment between parent and child ( 1982 ) A secure base is a parental presence that gives the child a sense of safety as the child explores the surroundings . Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy 435

Figure John said that two things are needed for a healthy attachment The caregiver must be responsive to the child physical , social , and emotional needs and the caregiver and child must engage in mutually enjoyable interactions ( 1969 ) Additionally , observed that infants would go to extraordinary lengths to prevent separation from their parents , such as crying , refusing to be comforted , and waiting for the caregiver to return . He observed that these same expressions were common to many other mammals , and consequently argued that these negative responses to separation serve an evolutionary function . Because mammalian infants can not feed or protect themselves , they are dependent upon the care and protection of adults for survival . Thus , those infants who were able to maintain proximity to an attachment figure were more likely to survive and reproduce . 436 Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy

Trust Mistrust As previously discussed in chapter , formulated an eight stage theory of psychosocial development . was in agreement on the importance of a secure base , arguing that the most important goal of infancy was the development of a basic sense of trust in one caregivers . Consequently , the first stage , trust mistrust , highlights the importance of attachment . maintained that the first year to year and a half of life involves the establishment of a sense of trust ( 1982 ) Infants are dependent and must rely on others to meet their basic physical needs as well as their needs for stimulation and comfort . A caregiver who consistently meets these needs instills a sense of trust or the belief that the world is a trustworthy place . The caregiver should not worry about over indulging a child need for comfort , contact or stimulation . Problems establishing trust ( 1982 ) believed that mistrust could contaminate all aspects of one life and deprive the individual of love and fellowship with others . Consider the implications for establishing trust if a caregiver is unavailable or is upset and prepared to care for a child . Or if a child is born prematurely , is unwanted , or has physical problems that make him or her less desirable to a parent . Under these circumstances , we can not assume that the parent is going to provide the child with a feeling of trust . Mary and the Strange Situation Technique Developmental psychologist Mary , a student of John , continued studying the development of attachment in infants . and her colleagues created a laboratory test that Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy 437

measured an infant attachment to his or her parent . The test is called The Strange Situation Technique because it is conducted in a context that is unfamiliar to the child and therefore likely to heighten the child need for his or her parent ( 1979 ) During the procedure , that lasts about 20 minutes , the parent and the infant are first left alone , while the infant explores the room full of toys . Then a strange adult enters the room and talks for a minute to the parent , after which the parent leaves the room . The stranger stays with the infant for a few minutes , and then the parent again enters , and the stranger leaves the room . During the entire session , a video camera records the child behaviors , which are later coded by trained coders . The investigators were especially interested in how the child responded to the caregiver leaving and returning to the room , referred to as the On the basis of their behaviors , the children are categorized into one of four groups where each group reflects a different kind of attachment relationship with the caregiver . One style is secure and the other three styles are referred to as insecure . A child with a secure attachment style usually explores freely while the caregiver is present and may engage with the stranger . The child will typically play with the toys and bring one to the caregiver to show and describe from time to time . The child may be upset when the caregiver departs but is also happy to see the caregiver return . A child with an ambivalent ( sometimes called resistant ) attachment style is wary about the situation in general , particularly the stranger , and stays close or even clings to the caregiver rather than exploring the toys . When the caregiver leaves , the child is extremely distressed and is ambivalent when the caregiver returns . The child may rush to the caregiver , but then fails to be comforted when picked up . The child may still be angry and even resist attempts to be soothed . 438 Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy

A child with an attachment style will avoid or ignore the mother , showing little emotion when the mother departs or returns . The child may run away from the mother when she approaches . The child will not explore very much , regardless of who is there , and the stranger will not be treated much differently from the mother . A child with a disoriented attachment style seems to have an inconsistent way of coping with the stress of the strange situation . The child may cry during the separation , but avoid the mother when she returns , or the child may approach the mother but then freeze or fall to the floor . How common are the attachment styles among children in the United States ?

It is estimated that about 65 percent of children in the United States are securely attached . Twenty percent exhibit styles and 10 to 15 percent are ambivalent . Another to 10 percent may be characterized as disorganized ( Waters , Wall , 1978 ) Some cultural differences in attachment styles have been found ( Pott , 2010 ) For example , German parents value independence and Japanese mothers are typically by their children sides . As a result , the rate of attachments is higher in Germany and attachments are higher in Japan . These differences reflect cultural variation rather than true insecurity , however ( van and , 1999 ) Overall , secure attachment is the most common type of attachment seen in every culture studied thus far ( Thompson , 2006 ) Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy 439

Caregiver Interactions and the Formation of Attachment Most developmental psychologists argue that a child becomes securely attached when there is consistent contact from one or more caregivers who meet the physical and emotional needs of the child in a responsive and appropriate manner . However , even in cultures where mothers do not talk , cuddle , and play with their infants , secure attachments can develop ( Levine et . 1994 ) The insecure ambivalent style occurs when the parent is insensitive and responds inconsistently to the child needs . Consequently , the infant is never sure that the world is a trustworthy place or that he or she can rely on others without some anxiety . A caregiver who is unavailable , perhaps because of marital tension , substance abuse , or preoccupation with work , may send a message to the infant he or she can not rely on having needs met . An infant who receives only sporadic attention when experiencing discomfort may not learn how to calm down . The child may cry if separated from the caregiver and also cry upon their return . They seek constant reassurance that never seems to satisfy their doubt . Keep in mind that clingy behavior can also just be part of a childs natural 440 Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy

disposition or temperament and does not necessarily reflect some kind of parental neglect . Additionally , a caregiver that attends to a child frustration can help teach them to be calm and to relax . The style is marked by insecurity , but this style is also characterized by a tendency to avoid contact with the caregiver and with others . This child may have learned that needs typically go unmet and learns that the caregiver does not provide care and can not be relied upon for comfort , even sporadically . An child learns to be more independent and disengaged . The insecure style represents the most insecure style of attachment and occurs when the child is given mixed , confused , and inappropriate responses from the caregiver . For example , a mother who suffers from schizophrenia may laugh when a child is hurting or cry when a child exhibits joy . The child does not learn how to interpret emotions or to connect with the unpredictable caregiver . This type of attachment is also often seen in children who have been abused . Research has shown that abuse disrupts a child ability to regulate their emotions ( Main Solomon , 1990 ) Caregiver Consistency Having a consistent caregiver may be jeopardized if the infant is cared for in a day care setting with a high of staff or if institutionalized and given little more than basic physical care . Infants who , perhaps because of being in orphanages with inadequate care , have not had the opportunity to attach in infancy may still form initial secure attachments several years later . However , they may have more emotional problems of depression , anger , or be overly friendly as they interact with others ( Connor et . 2003 ) Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy 441

Figure Social Deprivation Severe deprivation of parental attachment can lead to serious problems . According to studies of children who have not been given warm , nurturing care , they may show developmental delays , failure to thrive , and attachment disorders ( 1982 ) failure to thrive is the diagnosis for an infant who does not grow , develop , or gain weight on schedule and there is no known medical explanation for this failure . Poverty , neglect , inconsistent parenting , and severe family dysfunction are correlated with failure to thrive . In addition , postpartum depression can cause even a mother to neglect her infant . Reactive Attachment Disorder Children who experience social neglect or deprivation , repeatedly change primary caregivers that limit opportunities to form stable attachments or are reared in unusual settings ( such as institutions ) that limit opportunities to form stable attachments can certainly have difficulty forming attachments . According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders , edition ( American Psychiatric Association , 2013 ) those children experiencing neglectful situations and also displaying markedly disturbed and developmentally inappropriate 442 Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy

attachment behavior , such as being inhibited and withdrawn , minimal social and emotional responsiveness to others , and limited positive affect , may be diagnosed with reactive attachment disorder . This disorder often occurs with developmental delays , especially in cognitive and language areas . Fortunately , the majority of severely neglected children do not develop reactive attachment disorder , which occurs in less than 10 of such children . The quality of the environment after serious neglect affects the development of this disorder . Resiliency Being able to overcome challenges and successfully adapt is resiliency . Even young children can exhibit strong resiliency to harsh circumstances . Resiliency can be attributed to certain personality factors , such as an temperament . Some children are warm , friendly , and responsive , whereas others tend to be more irritable , less manageable , and difficult to console , and these differences play a role in attachment ( Shaver , Baek , Chun , 2008 , Schiller , 1996 ) It seems safe to say that attachment , like most other developmental processes , is affected by an interplay of genetic and socialization influences . Receiving support from others also leads to resiliency . A positive and strong support group can help a parent and child build a strong foundation by offering assistance and positive attitudes toward the newborn and parent . In a direct test of this idea , Dutch researcher van den Boom ( 1994 ) randomly assigned some babies mothers to a training session in which they learned to better respond to their children needs . The research found that these mothers babies were more likely to show a secure attachment style in comparison to the mothers in a control group that did not receive training . Chapter 12 Psychosocial Development in Infancy 443

Autonomy Shame and Doubt As the child begins to walk and talk , an interest in independence or autonomy replaces a concern for trust . The toddler tests the limits of what can be touched , said , and explored . 1982 ) believed that toddlers should be allowed to explore their environment as freely as safety allows and in so doing will develop a sense of independence that will later grow to , initiative , and overall confidence . If a caregiver is overly anxious about the toddler actions for fear that the child will get hurt or violate other expectations , the caregiver can give the child the message that he or she should be ashamed of their behavior and instill a sense of doubt in their own abilities . Parenting advice based on these ideas would be to keep toddlers safe but let them learn by doing . Measuring Infant Development The Scales of Infant and Toddler Development , Third Edition ( comprehensively assess children within the age range of to 42 months ( Pearson Education , 2016 ) Children are evaluated in five key developmental domains , including cognition , language , motor , and adaptive behavior .
