  • Title: Theory testing, effect-size evaluation, and differential susceptibility to rearing influence: the case of mothering and attachment.
    Author: Belsky J.
    Journal: Child Dev; 1997 Aug; 68(4):598-600. PubMed ID: 9306638.
    Abstract:
    It is important to distinguish theory testing from effect-size evaluation when considering the impact of mothering on attachment security discerned in the De Wolff and van Ijzendoorn meta-analysis. Moreover, the possibility exists that this analysis both over- and underestimates mothering effects, as would be the case if infants vary in their susceptibility to rearing influence.
