In the present study, we investigated the relationship among three emotion-motivation systems (adult attachment, romantic love, and sex). We recorded event-related potentials in 37 healthy volunteers who had experienced romantic love while they viewed SEX, LOVE, FRIEND, SPORT, and NEUTRAL images. We also measured adult attachment styles, level of passionate love and sexual attitudes. As expected, results showed that, firstly, response to love-related image-stimuli and sex-related image-stimuli on the electrophysiological data significantly different on N1, N2, and positive slow wave (PSW) components. Secondly, the different adult attachment styles affected individuals' recognition processing in response to love-related and sex-related images, especially, to sex-related images. Further analysis showed that voltages elicited by fearful attachment style individuals were significantly lower than voltages elicited by secure and dismissing attachment style individuals on sex-related images at frontal sites, on N1 and N2 components. Thirdly, from behavior data, we found that adult attachment styles were not significantly related to any dimension of sexual attitudes but were significantly related to passionate love scale (PLS) total points. Thus, the behavior results were not in line with the electrophysiological results. The present study proved that adult attachment styles might mediate individuals' lust and attraction systems.
在本研究中，我们调查了三种情绪动机系统（成人依恋、浪漫爱情和性）之间的关系。我们记录了37名经历过浪漫爱情的健康志愿者在观看性、爱情、朋友、运动和中性图像时的事件相关电位。我们还测量了成人依恋风格、激情爱的程度和性态度。正如预期的那样，结果表明，首先，在电生理数据上，对爱情相关图像刺激和性相关图像刺激的反应在N1、N2和正慢波（PSW）成分上有显著差异。其次，不同的成人依恋风格影响个体对爱情相关和性相关图像的识别加工，特别是对性相关图像的识别加工。进一步分析表明，在额叶部位，对于性相关图像，恐惧依恋风格个体引发的电压在N1和N2成分上显著低于安全依恋风格和疏离依恋风格个体引发的电压。第三，从行为数据来看，我们发现成人依恋风格与性态度的任何维度均无显著相关性，但与激情爱量表（PLS）总分显著相关。因此，行为结果与电生理结果不一致。本研究证明，成人依恋风格可能介导个体的欲望和吸引力系统。
