Cultural Variation
When did Grossmann and Grossmann found that in Germany infants were wrongly classified as insecurely attached due to the difference in childbearing?
1991
Cultural Variation
What did Grossmann and Grossmann found in 1991?
That many infants in Germany were wrongly classified as insecurely attached due to the difference in childbearing between America and Germany = In Germany they keep more distance from children so the infants do not seek proximity in the same way and therefore are seen as insecurely attached.
Cultural Variation
Who found, in 1990, similar rates of secure attachment to Ainsworth (In USA) in Japan, but higher rates of resistant because children were not used to being away from their mothers and were extremely distressed when left alone due to the way they are brought up, make them seem as insecurely attached even when they are not.?
Takahashi
Cultural Variation
What did Takahashi found in 1990?
He found similar rates of secure attachment to Ainsworth (In USA) in Japan, but higher rates of resistant because children were not used to being away from their mothers and were extremely distressed when left alone due to the way they are brought up, make them seem as insecurely attached even when they are not.

1988
Cultural Variation
What did Van Ijzendoorn and Kroonenberg (1988) find in their meta-analysis on the findings of 32 studies?
They found that the differences between cultures(countries) was very small, with secure attachment being most common in every country, even though in the West the second was Avoident and the East it was Resistant.
They found that the differences within cultures was 1.5 times bigger.
Cultural Variation
Who talked about the fact that all research into cultural variation was not relevant because we were forcing our western cultural bias on eastern countries?
Rothbaum et al.
Evaluating Research into Cultural Variation
When did Rothbaum et al, said that all research into cultural variation was not relevant because we were forcing our western cultural bias on eastern countries?
2000
Evaluating Research into Cultural Variation
What did Rothbaum et al. (2000) say?
That attachment theory and research is not relevant to other cultures because it based in American culture. For example that the sensitivity hypothesis does not work because sensitivity has the opposite objective in Japan to America = in America it promotes independence while in Japan it promotes dependence. So even though some infants might seem like they have insecure attachment in American standards, they are actually securely attached in Japan because of their culture, and it is impossible to try and force American-based theories onto cultures that are so different.
Evaluating Research into Cultural Variation
Who said that there is actually a lot of evidence to support the universality of attachment, and that the issue is not whether sensitivity leads to independence or dependence, but weather it is linked to secure attachment - whichever form there is in that culture.
Posada and Jacobs
Evaluating Research into Cultural Variation
When did Pasada and Jacobs said that there is actually a lot of evidence to support the universality of attachment, and that the issue is not whether sensitivity leads to independence or dependence, but weather it is linked to secure attachment - whichever form there is in that culture.
2001
Evaluating Research into Cultural Variation
What did Posada and Jacobs say about universality of attachment in 2001?
They said that there is a lot of evidence to support universality of attachment from many different places: from China, Columbia, Germany, Israel, Japan and Norway, each with it's own culture, and that the problem wasn't what sensitivity actually led to, but the link of sensitivity with what is secure attachment in the culture.
Evaluating Research into Cultural Variation
Who said that an explanation to cross-cultural similarities in attachment could be a result of mass media?
Van Ijzendoorn and Kroonenberg
Evaluating Research into Cultural Variation
What did Van Ijzendoorn and Kroonenberg noticed in 1988?
That many of the cross-cultural similarities in attachment could be due to the fact that in the places where the studies where conducted mothers were exposed to the mass media which promoted western childbearing practices.
Evaluating Research into Cultural Variation
When did Van Ijzendoorn and Kroonenberg say that mass media is what makes the similarities between cultures in attachment?
1988

What did Hodges and Tizard do in 1989?
Followed a group of 65 British Children who had been placed in an institution (where they could not form attachment) before they were 4 months old, to adulthood.
The children were assessed regularly up to 16 years old.
Privation
What did Hodges and Tizard find in 1989?
Ex-institutional children who went back to their families had problems forming attachment with their mothers. Ex-institutional children who were adopted were attached the same as the control group (normal).

Privation
What is Disinhibited attachment?
A type of Disorganised attachment where children do not see difference between people they are attached too. Treat near-strangers with over-friendliness and may be attention seeking.

Evaluation of Privation
Deprivation dwarfism link?
Emotional disturbance might affect the production of hormones such as growth hormones, so emotional privation might cause physical problems.

That it is not possible to re-contact large groups of children to find out the long-term-effects such in Hodges and Tizard's study.
Evaluation of Privation
Long-term effects link?
It may be that ex-institutional children need more time to learn how to deal with relationships, or that they can recover if they are cared for in the right way.

2003.
Impact of Day care : Aggression
What did EPPE project do? (Sylva et al. 2003)
It studied 3,000 children's development between the ages of 3 and 7. They looked at their background of the children, such as home environment and experience of day care. They had a range of day-cares: local authority day nurseries, private day nurseries and nursery schools. They had a group of 'home' children and compared them to the day-care children.
Impact of Day care : Aggression
What did the EPPE project found? (Sylva et al. 2003)
Found that children who spent more years in day care (from starting year to primary school starting year) were described by teachers as having anti-social behaviour, disobedience and aggression compared to other children in the study (e.g. 'home'). They also found that the quality mattered: better quality = less signs, even though it doesn't eliminate problems, and that most children who showed those signs started before the age of 2.
Impact of Day care : Aggression
What did Clarke-Stewart and associates do and find in 1994?
They studied 150 children and found that those in day care were more advanced socially than children who stayed at home with their mothers. They were more advanced in things such as independence, and social interactions with peers.
Impact of Day care : Peer Relations
What did the EPPE project found about peer relations?
Found increased independence and sociability in children who had attended day care.
Impact of Day care : Peer Relations
What did the Minnesota longitudinal study found to do with peer relations VS day care in 2005? (Sroufe et al.)
They found a continuity between early attachment and later emotional and social behaviour: securely attached infants grow to be more popular. - Children in Day cares are less likely to be securely attached.
Impact of Day care : Peer Relations
What did Belsky and Rovine (1988) do?
They assessed attachment using the strange situation in infants who had been receiving 20 hours or more of day care per week before they were one year old.

She said that the study found 83% of children who spend 10 - 30 hours in day care did NOT show higher levels of aggression. She claims that the study results so far actually tell us very little.

Day care : Aggression
What other conclusion did the NICHD study found but was not popular?
That it was actually maternal sensitivity and maternal education or higher income (factors at home) that were more important and determining Aggression.

What did Dingfelder (2004) say about the NICHD study?
That the results are meaningless because they were not able to prove day-care causes aggression (No causal relationship), and that the results would only have meaning if people knew what actually increased aggression.

What is one problem with peer-relations study links?
No causal relationship - it might be something else, like that fact that shy kids don't go because their mothers are shy, so we can see the difference not because actual effect of day care.
Evaluating Day care : Peer-relations + day care
What is another problem with peer-relations studies? (Methodological limitations)
That all studies are correlational - not causal.
Evaluating Day care : Peer-relations + day care
What is an important point to remember about day care research?
That there are many other (mediating) factors that effect the development of a child, like attachment to pedants or pay grade, and they cannot be ignored.
Evaluating Day care : Peer-relations + day care
What are all the mediating factors that need to be considered in day-care research?
Quality of care.
Lack of commitment and interest of carer.
Individual differences.
Child's age and number of house.
Applications.

What is the applications of research into day care?
That it resulted in better quality day-cares and an appropriate age when starting day-care...
Evaluating Day care : Mediating factors
Quality of care
Day-care might be harmful because it is disruption, and Robertsosns showed that with a good emotional care there were no effects of disruption: the NICHD study (1997) showed that low quality day care was associated with poor social development = when staff-child ratio is poor / turnover of staff is high = no actually secondary attachment figures.
Evaluating Day care : Mediating factors
Lack of commitment and interest
Parent might provide better care because they are more committed to their child's attention and well being = more emotional care.
Evaluating Day care : Mediating factors
What did Bryant et al. found in 1980?
Found that some children in a childminding setting were actually disturbed. He suggested that this may be because childminders don't feel that they have to form emotional bonds wight he children.

When did Bryant et al. suggest that childminders don't feel like they need to form an emotional bond?
1980
Evaluating Day care : Mediating factors
Who suggested that childminders don't feel like they need to form emotional bond after finding that some children in childcare did have a disturbance in attachment (1980)?
Bryant et al.
Evaluating Day care : Mediating factors
What did Howes and Hamilton found in 1992?
They found that only 50% of children in day care had secure attachment with their staff, but 70% of children had secure attachment with their mothers. Explanation could be because childminders are less committed and give less attention / are less engaged with the child = not as close.

Egeland and Heister (1995)
Found that Insecurely attached children did best in day care, VS securely attached children who became more aggressive. - Maybe because securely attached children felt disruption while insecurely attached children didn't
Evaluating Day care : Mediating factors
Egeland and Heister (1995) VS NICHD study (1997)
Insecurely good, securely bad VS insecurely attached did worse.

Gregg et al. (2005)
Found that negative effects are more likely with children who started day-care before they were 18 months old. (effects small, only ¼ of working mothers in full time then)

Clarke-Stewart et al. (1994)
Found no difference in attachment between children spending 30+ hours a week in day care VS children who spent less then 10 hours a week.
Evaluating Day care : Mediating factors
Studies that support Clarke-Stewart et al. (1994)?
Scarr and Thompson 1994, Andresson, 1992.
No ill effects when children were place in day care under 1yrs and even for more than 20 hours per week.

How did research into attachment influence real-world things?
-It improved day-care by showing the importance of certain elements for better attachment.
-It showed that different methods should be taken out when children are in hospital.
-(Singer et al. 1985): now children are adopted within the first week after birth, and are now adoptive mothers and children are attached as securely as non-adopted.
-Helped improving parenting and seeing when children should be taken away from abusive parents and how to deal with those children.

How did research into day care influence day care?
-The importance of high quality day care was stressed.
- Good staff-to-child ratio (NICHD study 1999 found 1:3is best) was an important factor.
- Schaffer (1998) said that the consistency (minimal staff turnover) was the most important factor. (privation or disruption might be caused from a lot of turnovers)
- Sylva et al. (2003) said from the EPPE study that the higher qualifications of staff, particularly the manager of the centre, the better the outcomes of social development.
Influence of research into day care
What did NICHD study (1999) found day-cares actually provide?
Found that only 23% of infants care providers give 'highly' sensitive infant care. 50% of them provide only 'moderate' and 20% are 'emotionally detached' from infants under their care.
