BACKGROUND AND AIMS Object attachment is a core feature of hoarding disorder (HD), but it also occurs in people without HD. It is therefore critical to clarify differences between normal and abnormal object attachment. Although previous studies show that HD is associated with high emotional reactivity, no study to date has examined the nature and intensity of discrete emotions in people with and without HD in relation to object attachment. METHOD Individuals with HD (n = 93) and matched controls (n = 93) were recruited via MTurk. They identified and described a possession of low monetary value that they were emotionally attached to and found difficult to discard. Participants rated their object attachment and the intensity of emotions when imagining being with the object (Scenario A) and irretrievably losing the same object (Scenario B). RESULTS Unexpectedly, there were no significant between-group differences on object attachment; however, the HD group experienced more incongruent emotions about their possessions; they reported significantly higher disgust, anxiety and anger than controls when they imagined being with their chosen object (Scenario A) and were more relaxed compared to controls when the object was lost (Scenario B). There were no significant differences between groups on congruent emotions (i.e., positive emotions in Scenario A or negative emotions in Scenario B). CONCLUSION People with and without HD experience similar emotional attachment for sentimental items but people with HD experience more mixed emotions, consistent with an insecure object attachment.

attachment积障碍中的对象依恋和情绪。

背景和目的对象依恋是ho积症（HD）的核心特征，但它也发生在没有HD的人中。因此，至关重要的是要弄清正常物体和异常物体附着之间的差异。尽管先前的研究表明高清与高情绪反应有关，但迄今为止，尚无研究探讨与对象附着有关的有无高清人群离散情感的性质和强度。方法通过MTurk招募HD（n = 93）和匹配的对照（n = 93）的个体。他们确定并描述了他们在情感上依恋并发现难以丢弃的低货币价值资产。参与者在想象与对象在一起时（场景A）并且无法挽回地丢失同一对象（场景B）时，对其对象的依恋程度和情绪强度进行了评估。结果出乎意料的是，对象附着之间没有显着的组间差异。但是，高清小组对他们的财产感到更加不协调。当他们想象与所选对象在一起时（情景A），他们报告的厌恶，焦虑和愤怒比对照组高得多，并且与丢失对象时的对照相比（情景B）更加放松。两组之间在全等情绪方面（即方案A中的积极情绪或方案B中的消极情绪）之间没有显着差异。结论有或没有HD的人对情感物品的情感依恋程度相似，但具有HD的人则情感混杂得多，这与不安全的物体依恋相一致。房屋署的小组成员对自己的财产感到更加不协调；当他们想象与所选对象在一起时（情景A），他们报告的厌恶，焦虑和愤怒比对照组高得多，并且与丢失对象时的对照相比（情景B）更加放松。两组之间在全等情绪方面（即方案A中的积极情绪或方案B中的消极情绪）之间没有显着差异。结论有或没有HD的人对情感项目的情感依恋程度相似，但具有HD的人则体验到更多的混合情感，这与不安全的对象依恋相一致。房屋署的小组成员对自己的财产感到更加不协调。当他们想象与所选对象在一起时（情景A），他们报告的厌恶，焦虑和愤怒比对照组高得多，并且与丢失对象时的对照相比（情景B）更加放松。两组之间在全等情绪方面（即方案A中的积极情绪或方案B中的消极情绪）之间没有显着差异。结论有或没有HD的人对情感物品的情感依恋程度相似，但具有HD的人则情感混杂得多，这与不安全的物体依恋相一致。当他们想象与所选对象在一起时（方案A），焦虑和愤怒要比对照组（场景B）要轻松得多。两组之间在全等情绪方面（即方案A中的积极情绪或方案B中的消极情绪）之间没有显着差异。结论有或没有HD的人对情感物品的情感依恋程度相似，但具有HD的人则情感混杂得多，这与不安全的物体依恋相一致。当他们想象与所选对象在一起时（方案A），焦虑和愤怒要比对照组（场景B）要轻松得多。两组之间在全等情绪方面（即方案A中的积极情绪或方案B中的消极情绪）之间没有显着差异。结论有或没有HD的人对情感项目的情感依恋程度相似，但具有HD的人则经历了更多的混合情感，这与不安全的对象依恋相一致。
