3118.125 Concordance among representations of multiple attachment figures in Chinese college
students, Tonggui Li, Kazuo Kato, Kyushu University, Japan

mother, romantic partner, and best friend in Chinese college students. Main findings were as
follow: (1) Only 33% participant reported the same secure/insecure attachment style for all figures,
(2) attachment to father and mother was not correlated with attachment to other figures, and (3)
attachment to general other was predicted by friendship, instead of family domain.

inhibitions due to norm and situation considerations was high, they reported better well-being.
