Zusammenfassung
Einleitung: Unsichere Bindungsstrategien sind bei zahlreichen psychiatrischen Erkrankungen überrepräsentiert. Methodik: Verteilung der Bindungsstrategien bei 368 alkoholabhängigen Patienten ± Aufmerksamkeitsdefizit-Hyperaktivitätssyndrom (ADHS) und Vergleich mit gesunder Referenzstichprobe. Ergebnis: Unsichere Bindungsstile waren bei Alkoholabhängigkeit signifikant überrepräsentiert. Die ADHS+-Gruppe wies häufiger unsicher-ambivalente (74,1 %) Bindungsstile auf. Schlussfolgerung: Die Subgruppe Alkoholabhängiger mit persistierendem ADHS zeigt ein spezifisches Bindungsverhalten, das unterschiedliche Therapieresponse aufklären und womöglich Beginn und Verlauf der Alkoholabhängigkeit beeinflussen könnte.
Abstract
Introduction: Attachment theory yields empirical constructs for development of human self, personality and cognition. Insecure attachment strategies were associated with various psychiatric disorders. Method: We investigated distribution of attachment styles in 368 adult alcoholics of German descent with or without persistent symptoms of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and in 402 healthy individuals. Result: Insecure attachment styles were significantly overrepresented compared to healthy controls. The subgroup of alcoholics with ADHD showed significantly more frequent enmeshed (74.1 %), the subgroup of alcoholics without persistent ADH-associated symptoms showed more frequent dismissing (35 %) attachment strategies. Conclusion: In our sample, insecure attachment styles are associated with alcoholism. The subgroup of alcoholics with persistent ADHD shows a specific attachment behavior that could contribute to different therapy response or to early onset or severity of alcoholism.
