Sažetak
The article connects the concept of different types of love proposed by the Canadian sociologist Alan Lee (Lee, 1973) and John Bowlby’s attachment theory (Bowlby, 1969/82).
The primary aim of the paper is to establish a correlation of styles of love with attachment (through the dimension of avoidance and anxiety), sexual satisfaction, adequate care and compulsive care. The sample included 447 participants of two age groups (aged 18-25 and 25-35). Earlier studies analysed styles of love in relation to attachment, while this work also explains the correlation of styles of love with care and sexual satisfaction. In comparison to earlier studies, this study presents an important original contribution to the issue with its dimensional approach to measuring attachment through the dimensions of anxiety and avoidance, as well as differentiating adequate and compulsive care.
