How do attachment style and social support contribute to women's psychopathology following intimate partner violence? Examining clinician ratings versus self-report
چکیده انگلیسی

Concurrent associations between attachment style and social support in posttraumatic stress disorder, depression, and generalized anxiety disorder were explored using regression analyses in a sample of 108 victims of intimate partner violence. To examine whether assessment modality influenced findings, self-report and clinician ratings of psychopathology were compared. Both lower perceived social support and higher attachment anxiety were significantly associated with higher self-reported PTSD; however, only lower social support was significantly associated with clinician assessed PTSD. Lower social support, higher attachment anxiety, and lower attachment closeness were related with higher self-reported depression; however, only lower social support was related to clinician assessed depression. Lastly, only higher attachment anxiety was associated with self-reported GAD, whereas lower attachment dependency showed the only significant association in clinician assessed GAD. Possible explanations for discrepancies between assessment modalities are discussed, with emphasis on application to intimate partner violence and suggestions for future research.


► Associations of attachment and social support in psychopathology were examined.
► Analyses compared both self-report and clinician assessed PTSD, depression, and GAD.
► Both attachment styles and social support were significant in self-report analyses.
► Attachment was less influential in predicting clinician assessed mental health.
► Findings are discussed within the context of intimate partner violence.
