Ujęcie przywiązania w perspektywie Dynamiczno-‑Rozwojowego Modelu Przywiązania i Adaptacji (DMM)
The Approach to Attachment From the Perspective of the Dynamic-­ Maturational Model of Attachment and Adaptation

Summary/Abstract: The article presents the Dynamic-Maturational Model of Attachment and Adaptation(DMM) by Patricia Crittenden, which differs from the ABC+D model more widely known in Poland.DMM focuses on attachment strategies, understood as self-protective mechanisms in response tothreats. These strategies involve a transformation of cognitive and affective information, enablingindividuals to protect themselves from danger, thereby influencing their psychological developmentand interpersonal relationships. These transformations of information serve an adaptive function.The article outlines the main principles of the DMM model, comparing them with selectedaspects of the ABC+D model. It also provides a brief overview of the classification of attach-ment strategies. The authors highlight an ongoing debate between the proponents of both modelsregarding their empirical value.
