From the Attachment module, describe some of the research findings related to attachment. What kind of relationship did you have with your parents or primary caregivers when you were young? Do you think that had any effect on the way you related to others (e.g., friends, relationship partners) as you grew older? Some people, despite reporting insecure relationships with their parents or caregivers, report secure relationships with their spouses. What kinds of experiences do you think might enable someone to develop a secure relationship with their partner despite having an insecure relationship with other central figures in their lives?
