Adult Attachment Styles: Relations with Emotional Well-Being, Marriage, and Parenting.

Volling, Brenda L.; Notaro, Paul C.; Larsen, Joelle J.

Family Relations, v47 n4 p355-67 Oct 1998

Examines the pairings of adult attachment styles among married couples raising young children. There was no relation between adult attachment styles, parenting behavior, and the security of infant/parent attachments. Future work would benefit by focusing on the dyadic constellations of adult attachment styles and their implications for family relationships. (Author/GCP)
