Wzajemne przywiązanie partnerów i wsparcie a ich satysfakcja z życia na różnych etapach rozwoju rodziny
Attachment, Support and Satisfaction with Life of Partners in Different Stages of Family Development

Summary/Abstract: A bond between people should be treated as an important factor of development. The attachment style has a significant impact on our well-being and functioning in an intimate relationship. A healthy, safe attachment will lead to the feeling of happiness and sense of fulfilment. It is also associated with the ability to support others, and to cope with crisis situations. On the basis of literature analysis, the authors of the article assume that a person characterized by the secure attachment style will be more confident to explore the world and will derive more satisfaction from life. They will also be able to search for support in a difficult situation. The study involved 124 people (62 women and 62 men) involved in an intimate relationship, in one of the three phases of family development (average age: 33.3 years). The study used Kwestionariusz Stylów Przywiązaniowych (Attachment Style Questionnaire) by Mieczyslaw Plopa (2005b), Skala Wsparcia Społecznego (Social Suport Scale) by Krystyna Kmiecik-Baran (1995) and Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS) as adapted by Z ygfryd Juczyński (2001). The study showed the importance of social support and anxious-ambivalent attachment style for life satisfaction.
