Attachment Styles

Secure, anxious, avoidant or disorganized? This test illuminates the relational pattern you learned — and how it shows up in your bonds today.


There are 16 groups of 4 statements. In each group, mark the one most like you and the one least like you. Think of how you actually behave in close relationships (romantic, family, intimate), not how you'd like to behave.
