Which of the following ideas are important in Bowlby's Object Loss Theory, which was based on the study of World War II orphaned children?
a. A strong ego can resist the crisis of maternal loss.
b. Maternal loss early in life may predispose to depression.
c. The mother has little influence on a child's ego development.
d. Depression is stimulated only by losses later in life.
B
John Bowlby's study of World War II orphaned children concluded that adult mental health required a young child to experience a close and loving relationship with its mother (or an appropriate mother substitute). According to Bowlby's observations: (1) traumatic loss early in life may predispose one to depression and (2) subsequent loss or separation in adulthood may serve as a stimulus to depression.
