- Abstract
This study examined the agreement (correlations and correspondences) of self and other ratings on attachment style scales, and whether these correlations were influenced by the attachment style of the partner for the other-rating in dyads of new acquaintanceship. Participants were 60 pairs of university freshmen. The main results showed that two dimensions of attachment style had low but significant correlations between the self-rating and the other-rating. These correlations were not influenced by the attachment style of the partner. These findings might indicate that attachment style is a recognizable personality trait in the initial phase of close relationships.
