Symbiosis and Attachment Hunger
نویسنده
چکیده
This article examines the notion of symbiosis as it was originally presented (Schiff & Schiff, 1971). It is suggested that there has been a largely unstated assumption as to what symbiosis actually is: that is, it has referred to the notion of attachment. Recognizing this assumption allows for a more accurate definition of symbiosis. In addition, it brings into question the notion of stimulus hunger and what is subsumed under that term. The concept of attachment hunger is devised to complement the idea of stimulation hunger and to provide a sounder basis for the definition of symbiosis.
