Abstract (Swedish)
Studien har undersökt par som kommer på nybesök till familjerådgivning, deras vuxen anknytningsmönster, undvikande copingstil, samt om det fanns ett samband mellan vuxenanknytning och undvikande copingstil. Sextionio individer deltog i studien och fyllde i en enkät som bestod av instrumenten Experiences in Close Relationships Revised (ECR-R) som mäter vuxen anknytning, och Young-Rygh Avoidance Inventory (YRAI) som mäter grad av undvikande copingstil. Under fyra veckor samlades enkäter in från 69 individer som sökt hjälp hos familjerådgivningsmottagningar på södra västkusten, i sydvästra, sydöstra och i mellersta Sverige. Resultaten visade att av de individer som sökte till familjerådgivningsmottagningar fanns en överrepresentation av... (More)

Under fyra veckor samlades enkäter in från 69 individer som sökt hjälp hos familjerådgivningsmottagningar på södra västkusten, i sydvästra, sydöstra och i mellersta Sverige. Resultaten visade att av de individer som sökte till familjerådgivningsmottagningar fanns en överrepresentation av individer med rädd-undvikande anknytning och att drygt hälften av individerna använde en undvikande copingstil i hög grad. Studien fann ett signifikant svagt samband mellan låg anknytningsrelaterad ångest och låg grad av undvikande copingstil. Det påvisades inga signifikanta samband mellan vuxen anknytning och en hög grad av undvikande copingstil. Dock visade resultaten på en benägenhet hos dem med rädd-undvikande anknytning att använda sig av en hög grad av undvikande copingstil, men det behövs mer forskning på fenomenet för att kunna dra några slutsatser.

Abstract
The study investigated couples who attended their first visits at Family Counseling Centers, their adult attachment patterns, avoidance coping style, and whether there was an association between adult attachment patterns and avoidance coping style. Sixty-nine individuals participated in the study and completed a survey that consisted of the Experiences in Close Relationships Revised (ECR-R) Measurement Tool, which measures adult attachment, and the Young-Rygh Avoidance Inventory (YRAI) which measures the degree of avoidance coping style. During four weeks, questionnaires were collected from 69 individuals from different Family Counseling Centers in the south west coast region, the southwest, the south-east and central Sweden. The results... (More)
The study investigated couples who attended their first visits at Family Counseling Centers, their adult attachment patterns, avoidance coping style, and whether there was an association between adult attachment patterns and avoidance coping style. Sixty-nine individuals participated in the study and completed a survey that consisted of the Experiences in Close Relationships Revised (ECR-R) Measurement Tool, which measures adult attachment, and the Young-Rygh Avoidance Inventory (YRAI) which measures the degree of avoidance coping style. During four weeks, questionnaires were collected from 69 individuals from different Family Counseling Centers in the south west coast region, the southwest, the south-east and central Sweden. The results showed that among the individuals who sought family counseling, there was an overrepresentation of individuals with fearful-reluctant attachment and that more than half of the individuals used a high degree of avoiding coping style. The study found a weak significant connection between low attachment related anxiety and low degree of avoidant coping style. It proved no significant relationship between adult attachment and degree of avoidance coping style. However, the results show a tendency among those with fearful-reluctant attachment to use a high degree of avoidance coping style, but more research on the phenomenon is needed to draw firm conclusions.
