Adult Attachment and Developmental Personality Styles: An Empirical Study
Sherry, Alissa; Lyddon, William J.; Henson, Robin K.
Journal of Counseling & Development, v85 n3 p337-348 Sum 2007
The current study was designed to test specific hypotheses associated with W. J. Lyddon and A. Sherry's (2001) attachment theory model of developmental personality styles. More specifically, 4 adult attachment dimensions were correlated with 10 personality scales on the Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory-III (T. Millon, R. Davis, & C. Millon, 1997) with a sample of 273 men and women. Findings indicated that the adult attachment dimensions were able to predict 7 of the 10 personality styles.
