The Impacts of Adult Attachment Styles on Marital Relationships
Journal Title: International Journal of Human and Behavioral Science - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Marriage is well-known to be one of the most significant areas in the lives of individuals. Having a satisfying marital life has been positively affecting individuals in many different ways. Many people who have consulted a psychotherapist with depression complaint are known to suffer marital problems. The couples bring their various past experiences, personal characteristics and habits to their marital lives when they get married. They also try to adapt to each other. Several research show that attachment styles have an impact on marital relationships. The attachment patterns that develop between the infant and the mother/caregiver during babyhood continue in a similar manner as the partner in adulthood. In this study, adult attachment styles will be explained in a theoretical context. Additionally, the analyses that show how adult attachment styles affect marital satisfaction will be told. Knowing the impacts of adult attachment styles on marriage might contribute to couple therapy studies.
