Attachment state of mind was investigated as a long-term predictor of romantic relationship competence. A secure early adolescent attachment state of mind was hypothesized to predict more constructive dyadic behaviors during conflict discussions and support seeking interactions in late adolescence and early adulthood. Utilizing multi-method data from a community sample of 184 individuals, followed from ages 14 to 21, adolescents with a secure attachment state of mind at age 14 were found to be in relationships that displayed more constructive dyadic conflict discussion behaviors and dyadic supportive behaviors at both ages 18 and 21. Results suggest substantial links between early adolescent attachment state of mind and the adult romantic relationship atmosphere an individual creates and experiences.
依恋状态被视为预测浪漫关系能力的长期指标。研究假设，青少年早期的安全依恋状态可以预测青少年晚期和成年早期在冲突讨论和支持寻求互动中更具建设性的对偶行为。本研究利用从 14 岁到 21 岁的 184 名个体的社区样本的多方法数据，发现 14 岁时具有安全依恋状态的青少年在 18 岁和 21 岁时的关系中表现出更具建设性的对偶冲突讨论行为和对偶支持行为。研究结果表明，青少年早期的依恋状态与个体在成年期创造和体验的浪漫关系氛围之间存在实质性联系。
