Hi Ilene,

Judy is right about the two studies. Harlow's monkeys are the classic wire
mother/cloth mother experiment.

I wanted to post thought because I think you can still use the corrected
story in your class to make a very valuable point about contact being almost
more important than food for babies!

Best wishes,

Oh gosh, Judy, please let me know if what I've been saying all these years
is just a story of two separate studies, LOL!  Seems like the "telephone"
game where things get distorted as they go down the line.  I'm sure I heard
this from someone but it sure did seem unethical.  So I guess it didn't
really happen as told.  Guess I'll be changing that part of the class but it
did fit so well :-)
