{"Image DocumentName": "E. Harry Harlow and Contact Comfort", "Image ImageDescription": "During the 1940s and 1950s, developmental psychologist believed that infants became attached to those who provided them with nourishment. This widely-held theory ignored the role of physical contact. In a famous series of experiments, Harry Harlow gave orphaned baby monkeys two artificial surrogate mothers. A cloth mother provided no milk but offered a soft terry-cloth cover. A wire mother provided milk, but offered no contact comfort. Experimental results documented by particularly poignant pictures showed that in frightening situations, the infant monkey clung to the cloth mother even when the wire mother had a nursing bottle.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
