Mini 16: Harry Harlow's Experiment
from Psychologically Minded · host Grace Fowler
CW: harm to animals On this week's minisode, I talk about the fake mother experiment that Harry Harlow did with infant rhesus monkeys. His work was foundational for demonstrating that babies and parents bond for comfort/warmth and not just for survival. The experiment is rough, so listen with caution!
