Problem: How can I make notes with bullet points in this paragraph?
Two hormones are necessary for the development of healthy secure attachments in animals humans (Carter, 2014). One hormone is oxytocin, known as the "cuddle hormone" or "love hormone." Levels of this hormone increase when an infant experiences warm physical contact with a familiar person. The second hormone is vasopressin. Higher levels of this hormone are related to the infant's recognition of familiar people. Animal studies have shown that treatment with oxytocin increases infants' social behaviors and the development of specific attachments (Carter, 2014; Carter & Keverne, 2002). Even in adulthood, exposure to oxytocin via a nasal spray increases a person's trust of other players in a game (Kosfeld et al., 2005; see Van IJzendoorn & Bakermans-Kranenburg, 2012, for a meta-analysis). But does early social deprivation in institutions alter the levels of these social hormones? To find out, researchers measured these hormones in 4-year-olds who had lived in Russian or Romanian orphanages before being adopted by U.S. families (Wismer Fries et al., 2005). Although these children had been living in stable, caring families for 3 years, they showed deficits in both social behaviors and social hormones when compared with U.S. children raised by their biological parents.
