Notes

"Children develop attachments for reasons thought to be deeply rooted in evolution, to ensure the parental care required for their safety and healthy development....According to Bowlby, attachment represents a primary, biologically-based motivational system, selected through evolution to promote survival through maintenance of proximity to one or more primary caregivers "[1]

The Oxytocin functions of the Physical Unit are implicated in Attachment and the attachment algorithm.[2]==Related LP Courses==
