The attachment relationship between hostel-based homeless individuals and their keyworkers
Failed protection and goal-corrected partnership in homeless youth predicted insecure attachment to the keyworker. • Fear of parental loss and post-traumatic stress in homeless youth predicted preoccupied attachment to the keyworker. • Goal-corrected partnership in homeless youth predicted avoidant attachment to the keyworker. • Homeless individuals with an avoidant attachment to the keyworker improved less on post-traumatic stress after therapy.…
Parental Attachment Style and Young Persons’ Adjustment to Bereavement
Investigating the validity of the Wong and Law Emotional Intelligence Scale in a Nepali student sample
This paper investigates the cross‐cultural validity of the Wong and Law Emotional Intelligence Scale. Two samples of university students were recruited: 504 from a Nepali university and 260 from a UK university. In relation to culture, structural equation modelling analyses provided support for the scale's configural invariance and the configural, metric, and scalar invariance of two if its subscales. Evidence for measurement invariance was also …
The role of child‐keyworker attachment in burnout among Saudi residential staff
Research on the impact of the keyworker‐child relationship on residential staff is scarce. This longitudinal study investigated the potential moderating effects of child and keyworker attachment styles on the link between child behavioural problems and staff burnout and the moderating effects of child attachment style on the link between keyworker attachment style and keyworker burnout. Participants included 261 children and 59 residential child …
The European Union as an object of insecure collective attachment
In this commentary I argue that the European Union has been functioning as an insecure object of collective attachment for large parts of the European population for many years. According to attachment theory, in relationships of asymmetrical power insecure attachment is formed as the narrative constructed by the most powerful party overwrites the authentic experience of the weakest, generating conflicted representation of self and the attachment…
Attachment provision in the Saudi orphanages
This qualitative study explored the accounts of 50 residential childcare staff in Saudi Arabia, aiming to identify ways in which staff and residential institutions may function as attachment objects for the children in their care. Rather than conducting a formal attachment assessment, a semi‐structured interview schedule was utilised, intending to generate novel insights into the child–carer relationship. Informed by attachment theory, thematic a…

The study extends recent research on the link between attachment security and the sociocultural and psychological adaptation of immigrants. It was hypothesised that attachment style would moderate the effects of sociocultural adaptation difficulties on psychological distress and the relationship between attachment style and immigrant background variables was explored. The study was correlational and questionnaire‐based, including a sample of 172 …
