Outline and briefly discuss three conditions that predict secure attachment in infants

What will be an ideal response?


Predictors of secure attachment include parent's sensitivity and responsiveness to
the infant's needs, high infant-caregiver synchrony, the temperament of the infant
(most notably, easy), little household stress, and a secure attachment to their own
parents. When the infant's needs are met, when a reciprocal relationship between
infant and caregiver is established, and when neither the infant nor the parents are
stressed, secure attachment results.
