Description: Tests the reactions of a large colony of new-born rhesus monkeys to a variety of unusual situations, simulating deprivation, in order to find the key to the bond between mother and child and to understand the effects of denial of maternal love. Shows through these experiments that the most important factor is body contact, holding and nestling, and further concludes that deprivation is the cause of deep emotional disturbances, even death
