Researchers were pleased to see that 38% of the toddlers had formed strong attachment with their adoptive parents as early as the initial assessment (1-3 months post adoption), and 90% having done so by the 2nd assessment (7-9 months post-adoption). Considering that most of these young children had lived their whole lives in institutions before adoption, these were very encouraging results.
