  • a novel integrating virtual reality approach for the assessment of the Attachment Behavioral System
    2017
    Co-Authors: I.a.c. Giglioli, G. Pravettoni, D.l.s. Martin, E. Parra, M.a. Raya
    Abstract:

    Virtual reality (VR) technology represent a novel and powerful tool for behavioural research in psychological assessment. Virtual reality provides simulated experiences able to create the sensation of undergoing real situations. Users become active participants in the virtual environment seeing, hearing, feeling, and actuating as if they were in the real world. Currently, the most psychological VR applications concern the treatment of various mental disorders but not the assessment, that it is mainly based on paper and pencil tests. The observation of behaviors is costly, labor-intensive, and it is hard to create social situations in laboratory settings, even if the observation of actual behaviors could be particularly informative. In this framework, social stressful experiences can activate various behaviours of Attachment for a significant person that can help to control and soothe them to promote individual’s well-being. Social support seeking, physical proximity, and positive and negative behaviors represent the main Attachment behaviors that people can carry out during experiences of distress. We proposed virtual reality as a novel integrating approach to measure real Attachment behaviours. The first studies on Attachment behavioural System by VR showed the potentiality of this approach. To improve the assessment during the VR experience, we proposed virtual stealth assessment (VSA) as a new method. VSA could represent a valid and novel technique to measure various psychological attributes in real-time during the virtual experience. The possible use of this method in psychology could be to generate a more complete, exhaustive, and accurate individual’s psychological evaluation.

  • influence of family of origin and adult romantic partners on romantic Attachment security
    2008
    Co-Authors: Rachel E Dinero, Phillip R Shaver, Keith F Widaman, Rand D Conger, Dannelle Larsenrife
    Abstract:

    Beginning with Bowlby's (1969/1982) seminal theoretical work, the study of Attachment has progressed along two fairly independent trajectories (described by Simpson & Rholes, 1998, and Mikulincer & Shaver, 2003). One line of research has focused on the Attachment relationship between child and parent, primarily in infancy but also as late as adolescence (e.g., Allen & Land, 1999). The other line of research has focused on the Attachment dynamics of adult romantic and marital relationships (Mikulincer & Shaver, 2003, 2007). The present report focuses on self-reported romantic Attachment security in adult romantic relationships and the degree to which it is linked to experiences in Attachment relationships with parents and romantic partners (e.g., Bartholomew, 1990; Bretherton & Munholland, 1999). Mikulincer and Shaver (2003, 2007) have summarized much of the research on Attachment processes in terms of a three-component model of what Bowlby (1969/1982) called the Attachment Behavioral System. According to this model, threats activate the Attachment System and cause a person to notice the presence or absence (“availability” and “responsiveness”) of a security-providing Attachment figure. If no such figure is perceived to be available and responsive, the person has to make an explicit or implicit decision to hyperactivate or deactivate the Attachment System. Over time, a person's experiences in such situations alter and shape the parameters of the Attachment System, making either security-based strategies or hyperactivating (anxious) or deactivating (avoidant) strategies more likely. Attachment theory, then, proposes that when Attachment relationships involve behaviors that are responsive, sensitive, caring and available, the person in such a relationship is more likely to develop a secure rather than insecure Attachment style. Attachment relationships without these Behavioral characteristics should lead to greater insecurity in Attachment. Despite this theoretical interest in social-relational sources of Attachment security, there is little evidence concerning the developmental origins of romantic Attachment styles because most studies of adult romantic Attachment begin with people who are already college students or mature adults. Moreover, there is relatively little research combining Behavioral observations of parent-child and romantic interactions with self-reports of Attachment style. The purpose of the present study is three-fold: (1) to examine the contribution of the quality of family interactions during adolescence to later romantic Attachment styles and the quality of romantic interactions in adulthood, (2) to examine the contribution of romantic relationship interactions to subsequent romantic Attachment style, and (3) to assess the degree to which romantic Attachment style predicts the quality of Behavioral interactions in romantic relationships. Figure 1 provides a schematic for the conceptual model which guides the study. The next sections consider the theoretical and empirical bases for each of the predicted associations in the proposed model. Figure 1 The conceptual model for the study.

  • the Attachment Behavioral System in adulthood activation psychodynamics and interpersonal processes
    2003
    Co-Authors: Mario Mikulincer, Phillip R Shaver
    Abstract:

    Publisher Summary This chapter introduces the basic concepts in Bowlby's Attachment theory, covering both the normative aspects of the Attachment Behavioral System and individual differences. It presents an integrative model of Attachment-System dynamics in adulthood. The Attachment System is an inborn regulatory device that has important implications for personality and interpersonal behavior. The model describes the goals of each Attachment strategy and their psychological manifestations and consequences. The chapter introduces major individual differences in the functioning of the Attachment System. It presents a theoretical framework that makes sense of the cognitive operations and dynamic processes involved in the activation and functioning of the Attachment System in adulthood. For this, a control-System model is proposed that integrates recent findings with earlier theoretical proposals by Bowlby. The chapter summarizes the diverse empirical studies motivated by the Attachment theory and reviews a variety of unresolved conceptual and empirical issues that provide an agenda for future research.
