Attachment Orientations And Relationship Maintenance In College Friendships, Samuel Chung May 2018

Attachment Orientations And Relationship Maintenance In College Friendships, Samuel Chung

Arts & Sciences Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Friendships are a ready source of social support and have been shown to be important to individuals' well-being, especially among young adults. Evidence suggests that the quality of students' friendships are associated with transition into college life. Students with high friendship quality report less anxiety and depression and also show better academic performance. This suggests that proper maintenance of friendships is important to function well and succeed in college. However, maintenance behaviors in friendships remain largely unexamined. The present thesis examines maintenance behaviors in friendships through an attachment theory perspective.
