The infants were then given two surrogate  mothers  (a terry-cloth "mother" and a wire "mother"), each of which alternately had a nursing bottle that provided food to the infants. The experimental results showed that in frightening situations the infant monkeys 

• were more likely to become aggressive toward the wire mother than toward the terry-cloth mother
• preferred the wire mother, even when the terry-cloth mother had the nursing bottle
• preferred the terry-cloth mother, even when the wire mother had the nursing bottle
• would run and cling to whichever mother had the nursing bottle
