Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ainsworth's attachment classifications (secure, insecure-avoidant, insecure-resistant/ambivalent, and disorganized/disoriented) are based on observations of the quality of the parent-child relationship, specifically the child's behavior during a reunion episode after a separation from the parent. Therefore, the classifications are reflections of the quality of the parent-child relationship, rather than being solely characteristics of the parent or child's personality.
