Detailed explanation-1: -The strange situation is a procedure devised by Mary Ainsworth in the 1970s to observe attachment in children, that is relationships between a caregiver and child. It applies to children between the age of nine and 30 months.
Detailed explanation-2: -Results from the strange situation test show that securely attached infants are easily soothed by the attachment figure when they are upset. Children develop this style when their caregiver is sensitive to their signals and signs of distress, while responding appropriately to their needs.
Detailed explanation-3: -Disorganized Attachment (Category D) An infant’s responses to the parent in the Strange Situation test reflect the history of interaction the child has with that parent at home. The pattern of these “organized” responses can predict the later functioning of the child.
Detailed explanation-4: -A child with an ambivalent (sometimes called resistant) attachment style is wary about the situation in general, particularly the stranger, and stays close or even clings to the caregiver rather than exploring the toys.
