Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This is a correct statement. Secure attachment is when infants feel comfortable, safe, and confident to explore their environment knowing that their caregiver (usually, but not always, the mother) will always come back when they need her. When the caregiver leaves, the infant may show signs of distress, but they can quickly recover when the caregiver returns. This type of attachment is considered healthy and is associated with good outcomes in later life, such as emotional regulation, social competence, and relationship satisfaction.
