Adolescent Attachment and Psychopathology.
Rosenstein, Diana S.; Horowitz, Harvey A.
Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, v64 n2 p244-53 Apr 1996
In relationships among attachment classification, psychopathology, and personality, traits were examined in a group of 60 psychiatrically hospitalized adolescents. Attachment was examined in 27 adolescent-mother pairs. Both adolescent and maternal attachment status were overwhelmingly insecure and were highly concordant. Results support a model of development of psychopathology based partially on relational experiences with parents. (KW)
