We conducted latent profile analyses on community (n = 1663) and clinical (n = 575) samples to determine whether continuous scores of attachment anxiety and avoidance would lead to the identification of theoretically consistent and clinically useful profiles.

Analysis on the community sample yielded four profiles: secure, preoccupied, dismissive, and fearful individuals; whereas, the clinical sample yielded three profiles: secure, preoccupied, and fearful individuals.

- The study aimed to test a mediation model linking childhood sexual abuse (CSA) to lower dyadic adjustment through adult sexual avoidance and compulsivity, and to see if this model applies equally to both genders.
- The sample included 686 adults in relationships, revealing a CSA prevalence of 20% in women and 19% in men.
- Results indicated that CSA led to increased sexual avoidance and compulsivity, which were both associated with poorer couple adjustment, highlighting the need for targeted interventions in couples with CSA survivors.
