Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A day-care center that is insensitive to each individual baby's needs is most likely to result in an insecure attachment between Dameka and her baby. Babies need individual attention and care to develop a secure attachment with their caregiver. If the day-care center does not provide this, the baby may not feel safe and secure, which can lead to an insecure attachment. The other options may have different effects, but they are not directly related to attachment.
