The current study explored the direct and interactive contributions of multidimensional measures of perfectionism and goal orientation in predicting patterns of identity-related self-processing for pre-COVID-19 and during-COVID-19 samples of traditional age (18–22 year old) emerging adult college students ( N = 722). Regression models controlled for age, binary gender, and race, then tested the unique conditional effects and interactions between perfectionism and goal orientation in explaining variability in each of three identity processing styles. After controlling for multiple covariates and hypothesis tests, only a few effects were repeated between the two samples. Those results indicated that a growth-seeking goal orientation was predictive of an informational identity style whereas validation-seeking goal orientation was a significant predictor of diffuse-avoidant and normative identity processing styles. The overall findings suggested that fruitful targets for future intervention studies promoting healthy identity development during the college years might include reducing validation-seeking while strengthening growth-seeking motives.

Research on dispositional authenticity has accelerated in recent years. Using the Authenticity Scale and drawing upon Self-Determination Theory, we conducted a Latent Profile Analysis to determine whether two or more distinct classes of authentic self-development were identifiable across separate samples (Ns = 344 and 378) of emerging adults (18–22 year olds). We also tested whether multidimensional perfectionism and attachment insecurity were correlated with the classes of authentic self-development, and examined the association between class membership and levels of psychological need satisfaction and frustration. Our findings supported the presence of a 3-class configuration which we respectively labelled "Consolidated Authenticity," "Unintegrated Authenticity," and "Pre-Emergent Authenticity." This class structure was replicated in a separate, independent sample. Results highlighted relevant variation in authentic self-development across the identified classes and yielded support for our model involving hypothesized influences on, as well as contemporary outcomes associated with, participants' class membership.

Samples in prior studies examining attachment theory in the military have been predominantly composed of male combat veterans. Given the rates of sexual trauma among female veterans and differences in the association between attachment and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) severity for sexual trauma survivors, it was necessary to consider the attachment characteristics of veterans within a mixed-sex sample. Participants were a mixed-sex veteran sample seeking inpatient trauma-related treatment (N = 469). Using independent samples t tests, we examined sex differences in attachment. Consistent with our hypothesis, women reported a higher level of attachment anxiety than did men, t(351) = −2.12, p =.034. Women also reported a higher level of attachment avoidance, t(351) = −2.44, p =.015. Using hierarchical regression, we examined the contribution of attachment anxiety and avoidance to PTSD severity, partialing out variance accounted for by demographic variables and traumatic experiences. Consistent with our hypotheses, attachment avoidance predicted PTSD severity on the Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale for DSM-IV (CAPS), β =.20, p <.001, and the PTSD Checklist–Civilian Version (PCL-C), β =.18, p <.001. Attachment anxiety did not predict CAPS severity but did predict PCL-C severity, β =.11, p =.020. These results suggest the association between attachment avoidance and PTSD is not exclusive to combat trauma and may apply more generally to the larger veteran population. Higher levels of attachment anxiety and avoidance among female veterans potentially implicate the presence of greater attachment fearfulness among this particular subpopulation of veterans.

AbstractThe present study explored relations among adult attachment styles, shame‐ and guilt‐proneness, and several measures of relationship problem‐solving attitudes and behaviors. Participants were 142 undergraduates (32 males, 110 females) who completed both categorical and continuous measures of adult attachment, as well as self‐report measures of the other constructs under investigation. Most participants (93%) were currently involved in either exclusive or casual dating relationships at the time of the study. Controlling for respondents'dating status, results indicated that participants'attachment styles were significantly related to both shame‐proneness and collaborative problem‐solving, Preoccupied and fearful students were more shame‐prone than were their secure and dismissive peers, and secure participants reported significantly higher collaboration scores relative to their fearful counterparts. As expected, shame and guilt scores were differentially related to collaborative problem‐solving, and participants'attachment security significantly moderated observed shame‐guilt correlations. Finally, respondents'guilt and shame scores partly mediated observed relations between adult attachment styles and collaborative problem‐solving orientations.
