Boosting Attachment Security to Promote Mental Health, Prosocial Values, and Inter-Group Tolerance (2007, background): “In other words, the ability to self-soothe is based largely on having been comforted by caring attachment figures earlier in life (see Mikulincer & Shaver, 2004, for empirical evidence that this is the case even in adulthood).”
Attachment-style differences in the ability to suppress negative thoughts: Exploring the neural correlates (2005, background): “Secure individuals (those scoring relatively low on both the anxiety and avoidance dimensions) cope well with stress, either by seeking support from trusted attachment figures or by calling upon mental representations of support received in the past (Mikulincer and Shaver, 2004).”

Individual Differences in Self-Compassion: The Role of Attachment and Experiences of Parenting in Childhood (2015, background): “…avoidance) have likely experienced caring and supportive interactions with caregivers, whereby the infant’s bids for proximity and comfort when distressed were met with sensitivity and responsiveness, which fosters the ability to self-soothe and regulate emotion (Mikulincer & Shaver, 2004, 2007a).”
An attachment and behavioral systems perspective on social support (2009, background): “In other studies (Mikulincer & Shaver, 2004), we found that this kind of mental social referencing of attachment figures caused securely attached individuals to see themselves as more similar than usual to their security-providing attachment figures, which seemed to be part of a self-soothing…”
Paranoid beliefs and self‐criticism in students (2007, background): “Moreover, such individuals may find it difficult to be self-reassuring, especially if they lack internal memories and schema of others as being reassuring and helpful (see Baldwin & Dandeneau, 2005; Mikulincer & Shaver, 2004 for reviews).”
Social Foundations of the Capacity for Mindfulness: An Attachment Perspective (2007, background): “In one effort to explain how prior relationships with security-enhancing attachment figures increase a person’s mindfulness, we (Mikulincer & Shaver, 2004) proposed that internalization of and identification with such figures allows a person to develop effective self-soothing techniques based on…”
Maternal Attachment and Children’s Quality of Life: The Mediating Role of Self-compassion and Parenting Stress (2014, background): “These strategies consist of the intensification of the primary proximity-seeking strategy and strong efforts to attain the desired closeness and support from an attachment figure by constantly expressing anxiety, vulnerability, and the need for care and support (Mikulincer and Shaver 2004, 2007).”

Attachment theory and research: Resurrection of the psychodynamic approach to personality. (2005, methodology): “Based on this line of reasoning we (Mikulincer & Shaver, 2004) conducted a second laboratory study.”
Attachment style, current relationship security, and negative emotions: The mediating role of physiological regulation (2005, background): “Studies such as this one are important for specifying the processes through which attachment experiences shape emotional regulation capacities and strategies, which has been identified as a priority for future attachment research (Mikulincer & Shaver, 2004).”
