A democratic prison Therapeutic Community (TC) aims to facilitate personal growth through enhanced interpersonal relationships. This study used a four category model of adult attachment to assess TC offenders’ relationships, obtained from a novel self-report method (a card sorting task). Four styles of attachment were empirically evidenced and an examination of individual attachment styles pre- and post-twelve months of treatment revealed a decrease in insecure attachments and an increase in secure attachment. Burglary/theft/robbery offenders were mainly fearful-avoidant at time one and preoccupied or secure by time two; sexual offenders were mostly preoccupied at time one and hybrid attached by time two; and violent offenders had lower fearful and preoccupied attachments and higher secure attachment rates by time two, but also more dismissive attachments. The findings are encouraging given the role of insecure attachment in the maintenance of offending behaviour and confirm that attachment theory can be usefully applied within this setting.

监狱治疗社区中依恋者的依恋风格和依恋变化

民主监狱治疗社区(TC)旨在通过增进人际关系来促进个人成长。这项研究使用一种四类成人依恋模型来评估TC罪犯的关系,这种关系是通过一种新颖的自我报告方法(卡片分类任务)获得的。经验证明了四种依恋类型,对治疗十二个月前后的个人依恋类型进行检查后发现,不安全依恋的发生率下降,而安全依恋的发生率上升。入室盗窃/盗窃/抢劫罪犯在第一时间主要是避免恐惧的,而在第二时间则全神贯注或安全。性罪犯大多集中在第一时间,而杂种则在第二时间附着;到第二时间,暴力犯罪者的依恋和恐惧感降低,安全依恋率提高,而且还有更多不屑一顾的附件。考虑到不安全依恋在维持犯罪行为中的作用,这一发现令人鼓舞,并证实依恋理论可以在这种情况下有用地应用。
