Abstract

The study examined the roles of mediator and moderator variables in the relations of childhood adversity to psychosomatic symptoms and general well-being. Attachment anxiety fully mediated the impacts of childhood adversity on psychosomatic symptoms and well-being in men, and partially mediated the impact of childhood adversity on well-being in women.
