Developmental Timing Effects: Sensitive Periods
ОглавлениеMost attachment research has traditionally pointed to early infancy as an influential time in the parent–child attachment. Separations from primary caregivers that occur near six months of age appear to have a particularly detrimental impact on children’s attachment (Hazen et al., 2015). Still, it would be too simplistic to say that only the first six months of life are relevant for later attachment. Indeed, Fraley and Hefferman (2013) found that individuals who were younger (i.e., within the first few years of life) at the time that their parents divorced were more likely to have an insecure parental attachment in adulthood than individuals whose parents divorced later in childhood.
