This means it cannot be generalised to humans and not much can be concluded from the research]]> 2022-05-06 10:06:20 UTC https://padlet.com/kwelsh51/8itz4g7xm09gvvmz/wish/2172672378 Ethical issues: the monkeys were removed from their mothers at an early stage https://padlet.com/kwelsh51/8itz4g7xm09gvvmz/wish/2172674066 The monkeys were left in almost total isolation form a very young age with only an inanimate, response- less object for comfort. Many monkeys developed social and sexual abnormalities as they developed which means they were not protected form psychological harm]]> 2022-05-06 10:08:36 UTC https://padlet.com/kwelsh51/8itz4g7xm09gvvmz/wish/2172674066 Extrapolation kwelsh51 https://padlet.com/kwelsh51/8itz4g7xm09gvvmz/wish/2172674313
extrapolation
n. the process of estimating or projecting unknown score values on the basis of the known scores obtained from a given sample. For example, a researcher might estimate how well students will do on an achievement test on the basis of their current performance, or estimate how well a similar group of students might perform on the same achievement test

- half hatched with mother goose (first moving object they saw) in natural environment
-other half hatched in an incubator with lorenz as the first moving object they saw
- incubation group imprinted on lorenz and followed him everywhere
- other group imprinted on mother goose and followed her everywhere

- this binds an infant to a caregiver ]]> 2022-05-06 10:13:19 UTC https://padlet.com/kwelsh51/8itz4g7xm09gvvmz/wish/2172677857 procedure: https://padlet.com/kwelsh51/8itz4g7xm09gvvmz/wish/2172680960 - he created 2 wire mothers
-each one was a wire mesh cylinder with a different head on each one 
- one was bare and one was wrapped in soft cloth
-8 infant monkeys removed from mother at birth (ethical issue) 
- split into 2 groups (cloth or wire)
- each one placed in cage with a mother 
- milk bottle attached to each mother   
-studied for 165 days 
-measured the amount of time each monkey spent with each mother 
- they were frightened with other toys and it was recorded which mother they went to for comfort ]]> 2022-05-06 10:17:14 UTC https://padlet.com/kwelsh51/8itz4g7xm09gvvmz/wish/2172680960 conclusion: https://padlet.com/kwelsh51/8itz4g7xm09gvvmz/wish/2172682335 infants form an attachment to someone who comforts them not who feeds them ]]> 2022-05-06 10:19:11 UTC https://padlet.com/kwelsh51/8itz4g7xm09gvvmz/wish/2172682335
