In "Someone to Watch Over You," Lyo classifies infant attachment into four main types based on the work of Bowlby and Ainsworth: secure, avoidant, resistant, and disorganized. Secure attachment is characterized by a strong bond and comfort with exploration, while avoidant attachment indicates emotional distance. Resistant attachment reflects anxiety and clinginess, and disorganized attachment shows a lack of clear attachment behavior. These classifications help in understanding the impact of early relationships on later emotional and social development.
