ATTACHMENT AND PSYCHOPATHOLOGY: COMPARISON STUDY BETWEEN ADULT ATTACHMENT STYLES WITH AND WITHOUT ANXIOUS-DEPRESSIVE SYMPTOMATOLOGY

Abstract
We developed a study to compare existing differences between attachment styles as a function of the presence or absence of anxious-depressive symptoms within a Chilean adult sample. In doing so, we evaluated 366 participants through the CaMir test (Pierrehumbert et al., 1996) which measures the adult attachment, and the OQ 54.2 test (Lambert et al., 1996) that evaluates anxious-depressive symptoms. The results indicate that there are significant differences between both groups, such that the anxious-depressive symptomatology is associated to insecure attachment styles.
