The textbook describes how infants with difficult temperaments have a higher risk of developing an insecure attachment, while infants with easy temperaments have a higher chance of developing a secure attachment. Since Jose is showing signs of a difficult temperament, he is more likely to have an insecure attachment. Therefore, Juan, who shows signs of an easier temperament, is more likely to have a secure attachment.
