Resumen
La Teoría del Apego es una de las teorías más importantes que se ha producido en el campo de la Psicología. Ésta explica no sólo la relación que un niño o niña tiene con su madre, pero también cómo un niño o niña se estructura y desarrolla en un ser psíquico. Entender la Teoría del Apego ayuda a elucidar cómo las interacciones que se dan en la relación padre-infante impactan el resto de la vida del niño o niña al predecir su desarrollo neural, emocional y social, y por esta razón, es importante explicar la fundación de esta importante relación. Este artículo revisa algo de la literatura que, basada en investigaciones desde los campos de la psicología, biología y genética, muestra evidencia de cómo esta unión especial está fundada en sustratos genéticos y endocrinos que, en interacción con el ambiente, funcionan para crear la expresión de un individuo.
