The Nature of the Mother's Absence and the Infant's Response to Brief Separations

Corter, Carl M.

Developmental Psychology, 12, 5, 428-434, Sep 76

During a brief play period away from the mother, the responses of 10-month-old infants were observed as a function of two factors in a 2x2 design: first, whether the mother or the infant initiated the separation and second, whether the mother was visible or not during the separation. (Author/MS)
