The current study investigates the relationship between insecure attachment and pathological personality trait domains in a sample of psychiatric outpatients. Participants ( N = 150) completed measures for attachment and personality. Bivariate correlations and multiple regression analyses investigated the extent to which insecure attachment and personality pathology were associated. Insecure attachment positively correlated with overall personality pathology, with attachment anxiety having a stronger correlation than attachment avoidance. Distinct relationships emerged between attachment anxiety and negative affectivity and attachment avoidance and detachment. Insecure attachment and male sex predicted overall personality pathology, but only attachment anxiety predicted all five trait domains. Insecure attachment might be a risk factor for pathological personality traits. Assessing attachment in clinical contexts and offering attachment-based interventions could benefit interpersonal outcomes.
本研究调查了精神科门诊患者样本中不安全依恋与病理性人格特质领域之间的关系。参与者(N = 150)完成了依恋和人格测量。双变量相关性和多元回归分析研究了不安全依恋与人格病理学之间的关联程度。不安全依恋与总体人格病理学呈正相关,依恋焦虑的相关性比依恋回避更强。依恋焦虑与消极情感性之间以及依恋回避与超脱之间出现了不同的关系。不安全依恋和男性性别可预测总体人格病理学,但只有依恋焦虑可预测所有五个特质领域。不安全依恋可能是病理性人格特质的一个风险因素。在临床环境中评估依恋并提供基于依恋的干预措施可能有益于人际关系结果。
