Explain the role of attachment in empathy. Explain how and why the presence of empathy may be a protective factor against causing harm. Provide an example of a violent crime and how attachment and empathy may play a role.

Role of attachment crj6201

Attachment starts from the moment of birth as an infant begins to recognize her mother’s smell, voice, and face. Children with insecure attachment due to a parent with unresolved emotional issues or an inconsistent parenting style show an inability to consistently show emotions. Children who have a secure attachment to at least one adult have higher self-esteem, social skills, and empathy. Empathy can be shown by children as young as 2 years of age and continues to develop into adolescence. Empathy is critical to the formation of healthy, reciprocal relationships. It allows individuals to understand how someone else may feel. If empathy is lacking, an individual may not hold back from physically or emotionally harming others because he does not have the capacity to understand how the impact of such harm. The relationship between the lack of empathy and antisocial behavior can be evident in children in early to middle elementary school years. This lack of empathy is one of the primary contributors to violent behavior.

In this Assignment, you analyze the role that attachment plays in the development of empathy and how empathy is a protective factor against violent behavior. You also explore the expression “neurons that fire together wire together” and how it relates to violent behavior.

  • Explain how and why the presence of empathy may be a protective factor against causing harm.
  • Provide an example of a violent crime and how attachment and empathy may play a role.
  • Explain whether or not empathy may be hard-wired. If so, how? Provide an example.
  • Explain the expression “neurons that fire together wire together.” Provide an example.

Prepare several specific questions in advance, designed to help you understand the topic as well as help you write the final part of the project.

Writing Question

Interview at least 20 people (outside our class) from diverse identities about your chosen behavior – this could be people who are academic experts, biblically knowledgeable about the topic, or just individuals who have experienced that behavior – whether struggling with it themselves or experiencing problems when other people don’t use the behavior effectively. Prepare several specific questions in advance, designed to help you understand the topic as well as help you write the final part of the project. You may have different questions for different people. You can also ask additional questions that come to mind in the midst of the interview, but be prepared. You also may need to explain terms to them to make sure they are answering the questions in a way that helps your paper.

 For the assignment, turn in:

  1. a brief summary of the behavior you are working on,
  2. the names (pseudonyms or numbers are okay) and a brief explanation of the identity of the people you interviewed (showing the diversity)
  3. the specific questions you asked (if you had different questions for different people, note that),
  4. what you learned – this can be a full transcript of the interview or just a summary, just clearly show what you learned from them.50
