Assessed the
effects of relationship duration on 61 teacher-child dyads. Found
that 91% of children who had been with their teacher for more than
1 year had secure attachments, compared to 67% who had been with
their teacher for 9-12 months and 50% who had been with their teacher
for 5-8 months. (MDM)
