Neurobiology of secure infant attachment and attachment despite adversity: A mouse model
Abstract
Attachment to an abusive caregiver has wide phylogenetic representation, suggesting that animal models are useful in understanding the neural basis underlying this phenomenon and subsequent behavioral outcomes. We previously developed a rat model, in which we use classical conditioning to parallel learning processes evoked during secure attachment (odor‐stroke, with stroke mimicking tactile stimulation from the caregiver) or attachment despite adversity (odor‐shock, with shock mimicking maltreatment). Here we extend this model to mice. We conditioned infant mice (postnatal day (PN) 7‐9 or 13‐14) with prese...
