Citations in the corpus
- An Examination of the Role of Attachment and Efficacy in Life Satisfaction (2010, methodology): “Fraley et al. (2000) reported coefficient alphas of .94 for the anxiety subscale and .95 for avoidance subscale based on an undergraduate sample.”
- Repeated priming of attachment security influences later views of self and relationships (2007, result): “Although the strength of the correlations between our ECR attachment anxiety and avoidance scales are somewhat unusually high, other researchers have found similar correlations using the ECR-Revised scale (ECRR; Fraley et al., 2000).”
- The Experiences in Close Relationship Scale (ECR)-Short Form: Reliability, Validity, and Factor Structure (2007, background): “One group of researchers ( Fraley, Waller, & Brennan, 2000 ) suggested additional items that may improve the sensitivity of the ECR across a wider range of adult attachment, but we could not find a single published study that developed a shorter measure based on the ECR.”
- Adult attachment measures: a 25-year review. (2010, methodology): “The ECR was revised [Revised Experiences in Close Relationships (ECR-R)] to improve the item– response metrics of the scale [76,77], although there has been no significant gain in validity and both scales can be interpreted to be “quite similar in meaning” [24].”
- The Experiences in Close Relationships-Relationship Structures questionnaire: a method for assessing attachment orientations across relationships. (2011, methodology): “We also administered the ECR-R (Fraley et al., 2000) to assess avoidance and anxiety in a more standard, global fashion.”
