Abstract
According to the study by Griffin and Bartholomew (1994), in Western context, the adult attachment internal working model was found to consist two components: (i) the self model, and (ii) the other model. The current study was grounded on Griffin's and Bartholomew's study to investigate the adult internal working model of self and other in Chinese context. Moreover, by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and item response theory (IRT), the Attachment Style Questionnaire (ASQ; Van Oudenhoven et al., 2001) was condensed to become the ASQ — Short Form. In addition, the four attachment prototypes, namely, secure, fearful-avoidant, preoccupied and dismissing as well as the adult internal working model of self and other were found to be present in Chinese culture.
