Drawing from attachment and emotion theories, we tested a model whereby emerging adults’ anxious and avoidant attachment would have specific associations with dysregulation and suppression of sadness and anger and would be unique correlates of emotional and behavioral problems. Participants were 383 (47% men) students between 16 and 23 years (M = 19.6, SD = 1.58) who completed a questionnaire to assess attachment, emotion dysregulation and suppression, depressive and social anxiety symptoms, and aggressive behavior. In a path model, greater anxious attachment was associated with more emotion dysregulation, whereas greater avoidant attachment was associated with greater emotion suppression. Greater sadness dysregulation was uniquely and significantly associated with depression and social anxiety but not aggression, whereas greater anger dysregulation was associated with aggressive behavior but not depression and anxiety. Also, participants with elevated attachment insecurities reported heightened emotional and behavioral problems. Anxious attachment had the most pervasive impact on all forms of symptoms, either directly or indirectly via emotion dysregulation. Yet, there was also evidence that a focus on regulation of sadness, relative to anger, identified unique links with depression and social anxiety, relative to aggressive behavior.

抑郁，焦虑和攻击的共同和不同的关联：悲伤和愤怒的依恋和情绪调节

根据依恋和情感理论，我们测试了一个模型，其中新兴成年人的焦虑和回避依恋与失调和抑制悲伤与愤怒有着特定的联系，并且是情感和行为问题的独特关联。参加者为383名（47％的男性）16至23岁的学生（M  = 19.6，SD = 1.58），他们完成了一项问卷调查，以评估依恋，情绪失调和抑制，抑郁和社交焦虑症状以及攻击行为。在路径模型中，更大的焦虑依恋与更多的情绪失调相关，而更大的回避依恋与更大的情绪抑制相关。更大的悲伤失调与抑郁和社交焦虑有独特且显着的关联，但与侵略性无关，而更大的愤怒失调与激进的行为却与抑郁和焦虑无关。另外，依恋不安全感增加的参与者报告了情绪和行为问题的加剧。焦虑依恋直接或间接通过情绪失调对所有形式的症状产生最广泛的影响。然而，
