Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Infants who display avoidant attachment tend to receive overstimulating care because their caregivers may be less responsive to their needs and emotions. In contrast, infants who display secure attachment have caregivers who are sensitive and responsive to their needs, while infants who display resistant attachment have caregivers who are inconsistent in their responses. The disorganized/disoriented attachment pattern is characterized by a lack of coherent behavior in the presence of the caregiver, and is thought to reflect experiences of fear, helplessness, or trauma.
