To explore the meaning and function of attachment organization during adolescence, its relation to multiple domains of psychosocial functioning was examined in a sample of 131 moderately at-risk adolescents. Attachment organization was assessed using the Adult Attachment Interview; multiple measures of functioning were obtained from parents, adolescents, and their peers. Security displayed in adolescents' organization of discourse about attachment experiences was related to competence with peers (as reported by peers), lower levels of internalizing behaviors (as reported by adolescents), and lower levels of deviant behavior (as reported by peers and by mothers). Preoccupation with attachment experiences, seen in angry or diffuse and unfocused discussion of attachment experiences, was linked to higher levels of both internalizing and deviant behaviors. These relations generally remained even when other attachment-related constructs that had been previously related to adolescent functioning were covaried in analysis. Results are interpreted as suggesting an important role for attachment organization in a wide array of aspects of adolescent psychosocial development.
为探究青春期依恋组织的意义和功能，在131名中度风险青少年样本中考察了其与心理社会功能多个领域的关系。使用成人依恋访谈评估依恋组织；从父母、青少年及其同伴那里获取了多种功能测量指标。青少年在依恋经历话语组织中表现出的安全感与同伴能力（同伴报告）、内化行为水平较低（青少年报告）以及偏差行为水平较低（同伴和母亲报告）相关。在对依恋经历的愤怒、散漫或无重点的讨论中表现出的对依恋经历的过度关注，与更高水平的内化行为和偏差行为相关。即使在分析中对先前与青少年功能相关的其他依恋相关构念进行协变时，这些关系通常仍然存在。结果被解释为表明依恋组织在青少年心理社会发展的广泛方面具有重要作用。
