Abstract
Individuals remarrying following divorce have a greater probability of a subsequent divorce than those marrying for the first time. Societal factors, unequal exchanges, and personality traits have been identified as risk factors for this higher probability. Attachment theory (Bowlby, 1983) suggests attachment style, as a personality trait, has implications for the higher divorce rate. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between attachment style and marrying multiple times. The findings indicate that multiple marriers are more likely to be avoidantly attached and less likely to be anxiously attached. Additionally, those marrying for the first time to a previously married person have similar insecure attachment Styles.
