Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Harlow's studies of surrogate mothers showed that when infant monkeys were frightened, they ran to the cloth surrogate for security and contact. This demonstrated that physical comfort was an important aspect of attachment, rather than just food provision. While the wire surrogate provided food, the cloth surrogate provided a sense of comfort and security, which the infants preferred. Therefore, option C is the best choice.
