871 participants, 375 boys and 496 girls, mean age 16.7 + 1, were administered the Parental Bonding Instrument (P.B.I.), the Brief Symptom Inventory (B.S.I.), the General Well-Being Questionnaire (G.W.B.) and the Chestnut Lodge Transitional Object Scale. Results supported Winnicott's theory: participants reporting attachment to a Transitional Object (T.O.) in their childhood reported significantly more optimal maternal bonding than participants who were not attached to a T.O. Participants reporting attachment to a T.O. in adolescence had significantly more psychiatric symptoms and less general well-being. Adolescence T.O. attachment might be considered a marker of mental distress in the general, normal population.
871名参与者，其中375名男孩和496名女孩，平均年龄16.7岁（±1岁），接受了父母教养方式问卷（P.B.I.）、症状自评量表（B.S.I.）、总体幸福感问卷（G.W.B.）和栗树屋过渡性客体量表的测试。结果支持了温尼科特的理论：报告童年时期依恋过渡性客体（T.O.）的参与者比未依恋过渡性客体的参与者报告了显著更多的理想母亲教养方式。报告青春期依恋过渡性客体的参与者有显著更多的精神症状且总体幸福感较低。青春期对过渡性客体的依恋可能被视为一般正常人群中精神困扰的一个标志。
