An infant is observed during the 'Strange Situation' procedure. When their mother leaves the room, they show extreme distress. On her return, the infant seeks proximity but aggressively resists comfort, kicking and pushing away when picked up.
Identify the attachment type shown by this infant and explain how one behaviour from the scenario supports your identification.
