Citations in the corpus
- selfobject needs in Kohut's self psychology : Links with attachment, self- cohesion, affect regulation, and adjustment (2005, background): “A similar situation exists in the study of individual differences in attachment (Shaver & Mikulincer, 2002, 2004), where self-report scales are used despite the fact that aspects of attachment orientations are thought to be unconscious.”
- Attachment and the processing of social information across the life span: theory and evidence. (2011, background): “…& van IJzendoorn, 1993, and Lopez & Gormley, 2002, for test–retest reliability data) and have overall excellent psychometric properties (especially with regard to discriminant validity; see Hesse, 2008, and Shaver & Mikulincer, 2004, for a review of the validity of these measures).”
- Adult attachment and romantic partner preference: A review (2009, background): “The potential limitation of self-report methodology as a basis for the construct of attachment styles is acknowledged, but Holmes & Johnson: Adult attachment and romantic partner preference 835 is outside the scope of this review (see Shaver & Mikulincer, 2004, for discussion of such issues).”
- Insecure attachment and personality disorder: a twin study of adults (2007, background): “Correlations between anxious attachment and neuroticism rarely exceed 0.5 (Shaver & Mikulincer, 2004), and associations between anxious attachment and PD dimensions indexing emotional dysregulation are similar in magnitude.”
- Attachment, sexual experience, and sexual pressure in romantic relationships: A dyadic approach (2007, unknown): “Previous studies using both English-language and Frenchlanguage versions have demonstrated the reliability of the two scales (e.g., Lafontaine & Lussier, 2003; Shaver & Mikulincer, 2004).”
