Abstract: | 59 male and female Israeli students were interviewed twice by 2 different interviewers at 3 mo intervals to assess the Adult Attachment Interview's (AAI; C. George et al, 1985) test–retest reliability and the effects of the interviewers on the interview itself as well as its subsequent classification. Various memory measures were used to obtain a wide range of information about Ss' memory abilities. Information was also obtained from the students' records about various intelligence-related skills. Results showed high degree of interjudge and test–retest reliabilities, irrespective of interviewers. The classifications on the AAI were not found to be associated with nonattachment-related memory and intelligence abilities. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) |
