The Current Situation Of Insecure Attachment Of College Couples And The Intervention Study Of Box-court Therapy

Adult attachment refers to the continuous and long lasting relationship between the individual and the companion at present,and romantic relationship is the main form of adult attachment.The results show that 74.9%of the college students couples belong to insecure attachment styles.At the same time,many studies found that the couples of insecure attachment styles are more likely to encounter difficulties and setbacks in romantic relationships than secure attachment,and they are harder to maintain a long-term satisfactory relationship.On the basis of the theory of adult attachment in foreign countries,there are plenty of research achievements on the psychological counseling of intimate relationship,while the practical research of amatory counseling has been emerged in domestic.Therefore,it is of theoretical and practical significance to investigate the status of college students'insecurity attachment and to intervene the unsafe attachment couples.In this study,the Chinese version of the intimate relationship scale(ECR)was used to investigate 200 pairs of couples fromYangzhou university in order to get the overall situation of attachment in the current relationship of college students.To ensure homogeneity between groups,18 couples were randomly allocated to intervention group and non-intervention group from 131 pairs of insecure attachment couples.The intervention group was treated with the intervention of 8 couples,1 time a week.The non-intervention group entered the waiting room at the same time,but they did not accept any intervention.After the intervention,the insecure attachment level of the two groups was tested in order to demonstrate the effect of the intervention on the insecure attachment couples.After the whole experiment,the same intervention will be carried out to the non-intervention group.The following results are obtained:(1)Among the samples of the study,secure attachment of individual accounted for 41.7%,some of them mainly are fearful and obsessive attachment,they each accounted for 24.3%,and the apathetic type is the least.(2)The level of insecure attachment shows significant difference in gender,among which girls have significantly higher score than boys in the avoiding dimension,but there is no marked difference of anxious dimension between the two.(3)Both of the partners are secure attachment accounted for 25.1%,their insecure attachment accounted for 74.9%,and the couples of insecure attachment are significantly higher than the couples of secure attachment in the level of anxiety and avoidance.(4)There are significant differences in the duration of love for couples with different attachment types,and both of the partners are secure attachment,or girl is secure attachment,boy is insecure attachment,their duration of love significantly longer than those boy is secure attachment,girl is insecure attachment,or both of them are insecure attachment.(5)Before and after intervention,the level of anxiety of intervention group A(both are insecure)is significantly reduced,the scores of intervention group B?C(that is one side is secure,the other is insecure)are significantly reduced in the two factors of anxiety and avoidance.There is a significant difference in the score of love satisfaction between the intervention group and the non-intervention group in post-test.There is no significant difference between the scores of the non-intervention group before and after intervention,which does not show any favorable turn.(6)The changes of sandbox works for intervention group:Self-image changed from the part to the whole,eventually become truer,it turns from negative self-evaluation to positive self-evaluation;the examinees' unconscious contents gradually become fluent,the integration for both of the partners is obviously enhanced;the number of trauma themes gradually decreased,and the number of healing themes is on the rise;the number of moving sandbox works increased significantly,and the number of unmoving sand works gradually decreased;for the couple of insecure attachment,the time of sandbox making gradually reduced and tend to normal after intervention.In conclusion,sandplay therapy can effectively reduce the level of insecure attachment for the couple of college students,improve love satisfaction for the couple of insecure attachment.Within 8 times' intervention of sandplay,the effect of one side is secure,the other is insecure is superior to those who are both insecure.
