Abstract

We examined the role of attachment orientations in changing the association between early-life SES and telomere length. Results indicated that attachment anxiety reduced the strength of the association between early-life SES and telomere length such that low attachment anxiety buffered the effect of low early-life SES on shortening of telomeres.
