Early Sensory Learning and Its Relationship to Attachment Behaviors

In early ontogeny altricial species need to maintain close proximity to the caregiver in order to survive. In mammalian species, early-life learning experiences occur in utero through chemosensory cues present in the amniotic fluid and in breast-milk during postnatal life. These stimuli are provided...

description In early ontogeny altricial species need to maintain close proximity to the caregiver in order to survive. In mammalian species, early-life learning experiences occur in utero through chemosensory cues present in the amniotic fluid and in breast-milk during postnatal life. These stimuli are provided by the mother's diet. This review offers evidence on the early-life learnings of human babies and rats, and thus how attachment behavior and eating habits become affected.
