Surrogate Mother Experiment
Study Conducted by: Harry Harlow
研究负责人：哈里·哈洛 Study Conducted from 1957-1963 at the University of Wisconsin 研究于1957年-1963年在威斯康星大学进行
Experiment Details: In a series of controversial experiments during the late 1950s and early 1960s, Harry Harlow studied the importance of a mother’s love for healthy childhood development.实验说明：在20世纪50年代末和60年代初的一系列有争议的实验中，哈里·哈洛研究了母爱对儿童健康发展的重要性。In order to do this he separated infant rhesus monkeys from their mothers a few hours after birth and left them to be raised by two “surrogate mothers.” One of the surrogates was made of wire with an attached bottle for food; the other was made of soft terrycloth but lacked food. What the researcher found was that the baby monkeys spent much more time with the cloth mother than the wire mother, thereby proving that affection plays a greater role than sustenance when it comes to childhood development. They also found that the monkeys that spent more time cuddling the soft mother grew up to be more healthy.为了做到这一点，他在恒河猴出生后的几个小时内将它们与它们的母亲分开，让它们由两个“替身母亲”抚养。其中一个替身是用铁丝制成的，上面有一个装食物的瓶子；另一个是用柔软的毛巾布制成，但没有食物。研究人员发现，小猴子们花在毛巾妈妈身上的时间比电线妈妈长得多，从而证明了在儿童成长过程中，情感扮演着比食物更大的角色。他们还发现，花更多时间拥抱柔软母亲的猴子长大后更健康。 This experiment showed that love, as demonstrated by physical body contact, is a more important aspect of the parent-child bond than the provision of basic needs. These findings also had implications in the attachment between fathers and their infants when the mother is the source of nourishment. 这个实验表明，爱，如身体接触所证明的，是亲子关系的一个更重要的方面，而不是提供基本的需要。这些发现也暗示了当母亲是养育的来源时，父亲和婴儿之间的依恋关系。 以上就是今天的内容。欢迎继续关注Metro English。2020年8月起，Metro English将与你分享那些对我们来说非常重要且影响深厚的心理学实验。希望借此机会，我们能够更加了解自己，更加了解这个充满互动的世界里，我们如何才能更好的与他人相处，与自己相处，接纳他人，同时也可以接纳自己。微信朗读打卡群“谁动了我的棉花糖？”现在开始集结，您可以扫描二维码，每个月25元，即可加入我们，每天有Sally为您纠音，有小伙伴们的同行与激励，马上开始说英语吧！
