Fig 7. Ambivalent attachment for combinations of misleading and ambiguous exteroceptive cues.

Mean (over repetitions) proportion of actions chosen by the infant during the last 10 iterations, when they were paired with an inconsistent caregiver (q = 0.4) exhibiting varying rates and types of affective communication errors. A: Proportions for a = b = 1-c and c decreasing from 1 to 0. B: Proportions for a = b = 0.75 with c decreasing from 0.25 to 0. C: Proportions for a = b = 0.5 and c decreasing from 0.5 to 0. D: Proportions for a = b = 0.25 and c decreasing from 0.75 to 0.
