Summary
The Attachment theory provides a framework for understanding the development of interpersonal patterns throughout the life span (Bowlby, 1969; Fonagy, 2018). Bowlby predicted that an individual securely attached in childhood is more likely to form secure romantic attachments in adulthood. The Attachment theory contains predictions about both continuity and discontinuity of individual differences across development. Bowlby (1973, 1980)) was clear in claiming that individual adaptation is always a product of developmental history and current circumstances and that change is always possible. The current attachment representations become the filter through which individuals view their significant relationships. An individual who shows secure attachments today, report greater satisfaction in relationships, whereas those individuals with insecure attachments feel unloved and undervalued by the significant people in their lives (Attili, 2017)
