What is the Attachment Styles?
Attachment theory, originated by John Bowlby and empirically developed by Mary Ainsworth, describes how early bonds with caregivers create enduring patterns for how we relate to others throughout life. These patterns — called attachment styles — powerfully influence our behavior in romantic relationships, friendships, and even workplace dynamics.
Research has identified four adult attachment styles: Secure (comfortable with intimacy and interdependence), Anxious (preoccupied with relationship security), Avoidant (prioritizes self-sufficiency, uncomfortable with closeness), and Fearful-Avoidant (desires connection but fears it). Understanding your style is one of the most transformative insights you can gain about yourself.
JobCannon's 25-question Attachment Style assessment gives you a nuanced four-dimension profile — not just a single type label — so you can see where you land on each continuum and understand exactly how your attachment patterns affect your closest relationships and your path to more secure connection.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the four attachment styles?▼
Secure: comfortable with closeness and independence. Anxious (Preoccupied): fears abandonment, seeks constant reassurance. Avoidant (Dismissing): values independence, distances from emotional intimacy. Fearful-Avoidant (Disorganized): desires connection but fears vulnerability, often due to early inconsistent caregiving.
Can your attachment style change?▼
Yes. While attachment patterns form early, they are not fixed. Secure romantic partnerships, therapy (especially attachment-focused approaches), and increased self-awareness can move people toward more secure functioning over time. This test is often the first step.
Is attachment style relevant at work?▼
Absolutely. Attachment patterns influence how you relate to managers, navigate team conflict, handle feedback, and respond to uncertainty. Anxious attachment can create dependency on validation; avoidant attachment can limit collaboration. Understanding your style improves professional relationships too.
Is this test scientifically based?▼
The assessment is grounded in Bowlby-Ainsworth attachment theory and the adult attachment research of Bartholomew, Horowitz, and others. It uses validated self-report methodology widely used in relationship and developmental psychology research.
