Research Abstract |
This study was conducted to reveal the commonality between romantic couples in early adults and middle-age married couples, based on the relationships between early adult attachment dimensions, emotional experiences in the relationships, and evaluation toward the relationships. Participants were 103 romantic couples in early adults and 156 pairs of middle-age couples. The main results were as follows : in those three relationships, attachment anxiety was positively correlated to one's own and partner's negative emotion in the relationships and negatively related to one's own and partner's evaluation towardattachment avoidance was only related to one's own negative emotion. In addition, the relations between attachment anxiety and one's own and partner's evaluation toward relationships were mediated by one's own and partner's negative emotion respectively in those three relationships. The results revealed the self-fulfilling prophecy of attachment styles in both romantic couples in early adults and middle-age couples.
