Despite the wire mother offering food, the infant monkeys preferred the comfort of the cloth mother, demonstrating that...

Socio-emotional development in infancy is primarily shaped by early emotional responses and social connections, with temperament playing a central role.

Karen Horney's psychoanalytic theories emphasize the potential for self-realization and the importance of addressing social and cultural, rather than biological, factors in personality development. She challenged traditional Freudian views, particularly Freud's concept of "penis envy," which she argued stemmed from cultural influences rather than inherent biological differences.
