Two explanations on the overview and evaluation of the annex John Bowlby considers affection to be a biological need to give attachment to our carers. This attachment is congenital and the formation of this attachment has a survival value, staying close to the mother and primary care worker (PCG), to ensure protection from food and danger, so as to maximize protection It evolved into. This special accessory for babies to use with their PCG is called unidirectional and provides templates or internal working models for all future attachments and relationships.
This article will explore and define attachment theory. As mentioned by Melendez and Melendez (2010), attachment theory was originally created by John Bowlby on his research, attachment, separation, and loss. Ballby defines attachment as an action that wishes to maintain intimacy with other people (Melendez & Melendez, 2010, p. 420). - Attachment theory defined by Harris and White (2013) is investigating the relationship between infants and young children and their carers. Attachment is important at understanding behavior because affection develops at such a young age and influences all future relationships, including challenges to dysfunctional family relations and adolescent peer relationships (Iwaniec & Sneddon, 2001; Reyome, 2010;)
Attachment is an emotional connection with others. Psychologist John Bowlby is the first affectionist to explain the characteristics of four attachments found in children between 6 months and 2 years of age. Bowlby believes that the combination of these observed functions will last throughout the lifetime and become a blueprint used for the development of subsequent relationships. Mary Ainsworth first studied attachment theory with Bowlby and then independently studied. She extended the theory and included three attachment styles (and later added a fourth attachment style). By responding to the needs of the baby, the caregiver (usually the mother) gives the baby a sense of security. Once the baby establishes this sense of security, it will build a safe foundation for exploring the world.
