1.The secure and dismissing attachment appears to be a protective factor both in the adoption of dysfunctional behaviors right after a relation dissolution (e.g., insistent telephone calls and text messages, verbal threats, and sending unwanted objects) and in using negative emotional categories as motivations for these behaviors (When Love Just Ends: An Investigation of the Relationship Between Dysfunctional Behaviors, Attachment Styles, Gender, and Education Shortly After a Relationship Dissolution).
2. Adjustment is related to a dismissing attachment style and to the avoidance dimension.
