Explanation of Styles:
Secure: Trust others fairly easily and
are well attuned to the emotions of
both themselves and others. Mature
in their capacity for intimacy, they
can communicate constructively
even when upset.
Ambivalent: Struggles with
communicating their needs directly,
and are highly emotionally reactive
with intense highs and lows. Fear
losing the people in their lives and
tend to act out when upset.
Dismissive: Downplays the
importance of relationships, telling
themselves that they are strong
when alone. Take pride in being self-
reliant, puts up walls around
themselves and are di!cult to get
close to.
Fearful: Disorganized and chaotic,
they seek closeness but are also
terrified of others. Frequently self-
harming, they see others as
potential abusers and themselves as
unworthy of love.
Further Elaboration:
Securely attached people had
caregivers who were direct,
sensitive, consistent, and supportive
of their children’s needs. Their
caregivers made them feel confident
and safe in the world. From an early
age, they learned to have faith in
their value as human beings, and
they grew to know that they were
worthy of love.
Ambivalently attached people had
caregivers who were distant,
inactive, dismissive, irritable, and
critical of their children. Their
caregivers made them feel rejected.
From an early age, they learned that
others were unwilling to take care of
them and came to fear
abandonment as a result.
Dismissively attached people had
caregivers who came across as
indi"erent and who were
inconsistent in their parenting style.
Their caregivers made them feel
stressed and insecure. From an early
age, they learned that others were
incapable of taking care of them and
learned to steer clear of emotional
intimacy as a result.
Fearfully attached people had
caregivers who were unpredictable
and confused, and who inspired fear
in their children. Their caregivers
made them feel scared and sad.
From an early age, they learned that
they were unworthy of love and that
they had to accept abuse and
mistreatment from others in order
to be accepted.
