Are you 'anxiously attached'? A new look at the data behind attachment styles finds that the concept may not be as securely grounded as previously thought, writes swhitbo
—researchers in the field have sought for the past several decades to understand how it fits into the overall makeup of someone’s personality. Because it would be impractical and unrealistic to put adults into laboratory settings that simulate the strange situation, investigators began to develop questionnaire measures of attachment style based on an individual’s self-report. As it turned out, no one measure fit the bill and, at present, several alternative measurement approaches exist.
Falling short of gold standards of reliability and validity, both of which serve to guarantee that a measure provides worthwhile scores, Justo-Núñez et al. note that some questionnaires even base their scales on how people respond to just a single item. Even more complex measures fall short.
Statements evaluating individual studies produced quality ratings such as “Very low ,” “Low ,” and “Low .” Hardly ringing endorsements.
