Description

Abstract: There is a vast amount of literature on similarities and differences of women and men experiencing (close) relationships and using different strategies for coping with daily stress and significant life events. Western folk psychology expects women to be generally more anxious and men to be more avoidant when solving close-relationship conflicts and experiences in long term relationships. We used the Experiences in Close Relationships – Revised (ECR-R) questionnaire that is based on the Attachment-style theory distinguishing four distinct attachment styles – secure, anxious/ambivalent, disoriented/disorganized and avoidant.
