Abstract
<p dir="ltr"><span>The object of our research is to determine the connection of negative attachment in connection with an individual's personality. We focus on comparing attachment and personality characteristics in psychiatric patients and the general population. The research sample consists of 84 respondents (N = 84), of which 48 were men and 36 were women, aged 24 to 68 years and the average age of all respondents was 43.42. Within the methods, we chose two questionnaires: The Experiences in Close Relationships-Revised (ECR-R) to measure attachment and The Eysenck Personality Questionnaire-Revised (EPQ-R) to identify personality traits. We observed a statistically significant difference in the type of attachment between the study sample and the comparison group. We did not observe a statistically significant relationship between the neuroticism scale and the anxious/ambivalent type of attachment in the study sample. There was no positive statistically significant relationship between the neuroticism scale and the avoidant type of attachment in the study sample. We found a positive statistically significant relationship between the extraversion scale and the secure type of attachment in all respondents.</span></p><div><span><br /></span></div>
