AB  - The aim of the present study was to examine the association between 
      post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and adult attachment in a young adult 
      population. A sample of 328 Danish students (mean age 29.2 years) from four 
      different schools of intermediate education level were studied by the Harvard 
      Trauma Questionnaire (HTQ), the Revised Adult Attachment Scale (RAAS), the Trauma 
      Symptom Checklist (TSC), the Crisis Support Scale (CSS), the Coping Style 
      Questionnaire (CSQ), and the World Assumption Scale (WAS). Attachment styles were 
      associated with number of PTSD symptoms, negative affectivity, somatization, 
      emotional coping, attributions, and social support. The distribution of 
      attachment styles in relation to PTSD symptoms could be conceived as 
      uni-dimensional.
