Attachment Styles Quiz

The four main attachment styles are secure, anxious, avoidant, and disorganized. Secure individuals have a positive self-view and are comfortable with intimacy and close relationships. Anxious individuals fear abandonment and may be clingy due to a negative self-view but a positive view of others. Avoidant individuals have a positive self-view but a negative view of others, prioritizing independence and emotional distance. Disorganized individuals exhibit a mix of anxious and avoidant behaviors inconsistently, desiring closeness but struggling with trust and intimacy due to contradictory internal views of self and others.

The rarest attachment style is the fearful-avoidant attachment style. Individuals with this style often have a history of trauma or abuse, and they struggle to trust others while also desiring close relationships.

The most insecure attachment styles are the anxious-preoccupied and fearful-avoidant styles. Both of these attachment patterns are associated with higher levels of relationship anxiety, difficulty trusting others, and poorer overall relationship satisfaction and well-being.
