Answer: Social referencing

Explanation:

Social referencing could be defined as when infants use the affection of their guardian's, parents or those they look up to which are older than them to coordinate their attitude in the environment, and towards people. It's one of the major ways by which infants adapt to people and their environment. They confide in this behavioral pattern with those who they can trust and they know.
