Structural Change in Adult Attachment Insecurity Through Transactional Analysis (TA) Developmental Collage Therapy: A Correlational Analysis

The inverse relationship between Adult ego state and attachment anxiety at baseline, and the subsequent change in correlation patterns, may suggest structural reorganization consistent with the TA concept of decontamination. This study is a correlation-based analysis and does not constitute causal inference. The concurrent use of cognitive function measures and attachment scales can reveal structural relationships that attachment measures alone cannot detect. Further research with larger samples is warranted.

Abstract

The inverse relationship between Adult ego state and attachment anxiety at baseline, and the subsequent change in correlation patterns, may suggest structural reorganization consistent with the TA concept of decontamination. This study is a correlation-based analysis and does not constitute causal inference. The concurrent use of cognitive function measures and attachment scales can reveal structural relationships that attachment measures alone cannot detect. Further research with larger samples is warranted.
