Question

Janel Decena · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : D, Explanation :  The Strange Situation is a procedure developed by psychologist Mary Ainsworth in the 1970s to observe attachment relationships between a caregiver and children. It involves observing the behavior of the child in a series of introductions, separations, and reunions with the caregiver and a stranger in a controlled environment. The scenario described in D accurately reflects part of this procedure, where a child is observed reacting to being left with a stranger in an unfamiliar situation to assess their attachment style.
