Validity of Scores on Three Attachment Style Scales: Exploratory and Confirmatory Evidence.
Becker, Thomas E.; And Others
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v57 n3 p477-93 Jun 1997
Three attachment style scales were developed. The factor structure of the attachment style construct was supported through exploratory factor analysis of attachment style scores from 1,181 and 545 recent college graduates. Additional evidence for score validity is presented, based on a measure of the Big Five personality traits. (SLD)
