Hazan and Shaver attachment theory and studies

#hazan #shaver #attachmenttheory
Ainsworth had only seen empirically that Bowlby’s theory of attachment was scientifically visible and measurable.
She added her own categorization system to show that attachment styles could be different in different mother-child dyads.
Cindy Hazan and Philip Shaver were the first researchers to propose that attachment styles in infancy could influence attachment styles in adulthood
They formulated a “love quiz” that could accurately predict the attachment style of an adult in his close romantic relationships.
They then assessed the person’s attachment style with their mother or caregiver and found that both attachment types were the same.
This led to the revolutionary breakthrough that our first intimate relationship with our first caregiver, our mother, actually can have a significant and long-lasting impact on adult romantic relationships.
Freud’s first instincts about the mother and child were right but it was the first time that they had been scientifically studied and proved
