The Application of the Theory of Attachment Many psychologists have come and gone‚ and many different theoretical orientations have been developed. With each orientation has come a new perspective on development‚ behaviour and mental processes. Some are similar‚ yet others could not be more contradictory.

Evolutionary Theory of Attachment. (12mark) Attachment can be described using two theories‚ one being Bowlby’s attachment theory which is based on an evolutionary perspective. The theory suggests that evolution has produced a behaviour that is essential to the survival to allow the passing on of genes. An infant that keeps close to their mother is more likely to survive. The traits that lead to that attachment will be naturally selected. Bowlby has the idea that attachment has evolved and it is innate

Attachment also exists in relationships and starts early during the infancy period between the child and the caregiver. The strength of the bond at the early stage helps to determine how well interactions and relationships are formed with others‚ as the child grew and developed. The attachment theory introduced different types of attachment‚ such as the secure‚ insecure-resistant‚ insecure-avoidant

Why is attachment important? Evolutionary Morss‚ (1990) states that: “Attachment behaviour is‚ in general‚ taken to have such a strong connection with survival that its universality can only be explained by evolutionary selection.” The belief that attachment is an evolved human trait has its roots in Darwin’s theory of evolution‚ where “male–female attachment evolved primarily to sustain affiliative connections long enough to complete species-specific parental duties” (Fisher‚ 1998) and parent-child

Attachment theories on development John Bowlby John Bowlby believed that mental health and behavioral problems could be attributed to early childhood. Bowlby’s evolutionary theory of attachment suggests that children come into the world biologically pre-programmed to form attachments with others‚ because this will help them to survive. Bowlby’s studies in childhood development and "temperament" led him to the conclusion that a strong attachment to a caregiver provides a necessary sense of security
