Individual Differences in Visual Self-Recognition as a Function of Mother-Infant Attachment Relationship.

Lewis, Michael; And Others

Developmental Psychology, v21 n6 p1181-87 Nov 1985

Compares attachment relationships of infants at 12 months to their visual self-recognition at both 18 and 24 months. Individual differences in early attachment relations were related to later self-recognition. In particular, insecurely attached infants showed a trend toward earlier self-recognition than did securely attached infants. (Author/NH)
