Transfer of Attachment Functions and Adjustment Among Young Adults in China

---

This study was designed to examine the process of attachment transfer from parents to peers, as well as factors related to this transfer process among Mainland Chinese. A total of 147 Chinese college students (with a mean age of 21.44) completed questionnaires that measured attachment style, attachment transfer, attachment support from various figures, loneliness, positive/negative affects, and self-esteem.Major findings of the current study include the following: (a) Hazan and Shaver’s sequential model of attachment transfer was generalized to the Chinese sample; (b) the extent of attachment transfer was found to be associated with participants’ emotional states (loneliness and positive affect) and was a significant predictor of these emotional states beyond the effects of attachment style and attachment support. As one of the first studies exploring the phenomenon of
attachment transfer among young Chinese adults, conceptual and applied implications of these findings are discussed.

Keywords: adjustment, attachment transfer, attachment style, attachment support
