Can anybody help with a research topic for attachment?

I need to come up with a topic for my psychology course which involves the attachment bond. It has to be a question that I have to research (obviously) I know what the attachment bond is I just can't think of anything that needs to be found out about it. Thanks

Can anybody help with a research topic for attachment?
You could do a comparative study of; mothers %26amp; their biological children, with mothers %26amp; their adopted children.
Reply:Do twins have a bond that other offspring don't? Think how twins separated at birth have so many coincidences, like and dislikes in common. Nature vs nurture. Is this bond telepathy? If twins share the same DNA and environment, why are their personalities different?

The test of the monkey who was only exposed to a stuffed stock compared to a wire mesh 'mother' monkey attached to a feeding bottle. Which one did the monkey gravitate toward? Why? Why do some people have opposite reasoning food vs affection, stuff vs. love.

The phenomenon of people without their Blackberries (technology) going through withdrawal symptoms, panic, fear and habits.

Compulsive hoarding.

People who are so scared to be alone often abuse their loved ones.
Reply:What impact does childcare have on attachment? (for this one, you could bring up all of John Bowlby's classic research into working mums!)





OR Is there a critical period for attachment? Discuss.
Reply:you could look at Ainsworth and Bells strange situation and then theres Takahashi which was the same experiment but with a different culture.
