- Abstract
The present study explores the effects of secure-base supervision in predicting supervisees' research self-efficacy, curiosity and exploration, and supervision satisfaction. One hundred and eleven research supervisees completed an online survey. Stepwise multiple regressions revealed that supervisors' ability to provide a secure base predicts supervisees' levels of research self-efficacy and supervision satisfaction and this effect is stronger for anxiously attached supervisees. Research self-efficacy mediates the relationship between secure-base supervision and curiosity and exploration as well as supervision satisfaction. The results provide the first empirical evidence that attachment theory is a relevant framework that can be applied to academic supervisory relationships.
