Mr.Johnson spends time each day caressing and rocking his infant daughter.This time together should serve most directly to promote

A) secure attachment.
B) stranger anxiety.
C) egocentrism.
D) conservation.

Spending time caressing and rocking an infant promotes secure attachment between the caregiver and the child. This is because the physical touch and close interaction helps to build positive feelings, trust, and a sense of safety and security for the infant. It also creates a bond between the caregiver and child that can last a lifetime. Stranger anxiety, egocentrism, and conservation are not directly related to this type of interaction.
