Insecure resistant babies in Ainsworth's study were clinging and uwilling to explore, very upset by the stranger regardless of the mother's presence, protested mightly when the mother left, were hard to soothe and had mixed reactions upon mother's return.

Explanation:

Ainsworth's study was conducted in 1969 and it is also known as the Strange Situation experiment and its goal was to observe how attatchments can vary among children.

In the results, the children that manifested a type of attachtment called insecure resistant, did not develop a sense of security from the attatchment figure and as a result they were ambivalent towards it. While they were clingy and dependant and showed intense distress when it left, upon the mother's return they were ambivalent and rejected interaction.
