Abstrakt
Celem badawczym niniejszej monografii było określenie związku pomiędzy stylami przywiązania a nasileniem objawów depresyjnych w okresie wczesnej dorosłości oraz roli samotności i samoregulacji jako mechanizmów pośredniczących w tej relacji. Badanie przeprowadzono w populacji nieklinicznej młodych dorosłych. Analizy obejmowały porównania między stylami przywiązania, zależności korelacyjne i modele podwójnej mediacji. Wyniki wskazują, że style przywiązania istotnie różnicują poziom objawów depresyjnych, a najsilniejsze związki dotyczą wzorców opartych na wysokim lęku relacyjnym. Wykazano, że samotność i deficyty samoregulacji współtworzą mechanizm wyjaśniający związek między przywiązaniem a depresyjnością, a różnice w stylach przywiązania wyjaśniały około 52% wariancji nasilenia objawów depresyjnych. Uzyskane rezultaty podkreślają znaczenie wzorców relacyjnych i procesów regulacji emocjonalnej w rozumieniu podatności na objawy depresyjne u młodych dorosłych.
