Abstract

This study examines how adult attachment and emotion regulation shape attitudes toward disability. Using two datasets (N = 1634), we assessed attachment and the emotional, cognitive, and behavioral components of attitudes, highlighting distinct tendencies linked to attachment orientations and investigating how emotion-regulation abilities contribute to shaping these attitudes.
