Seven-month-old Gavin seems very content being held by his mother. When the new neighbor from across the street comes over to greet Gavin, he turns his head away from the neighbor and starts to cry. What term best explains Gavin's response to the neighbor?
A. Social smile
B. Stranger wariness
C. Social referencing
D. Resistant attachment

Respuesta :

Answer: B

Explanation: The correct answer is letter B, social wariness. At that age, the infant will only recognize people by their smell, temperature, and some aspects of their face; being held by someone he doesn't recognize iniciates a "danger alert" because it knows that the person carrying it is a stranger, by crying its trying to get the attention back from its mother.
