Effects of Attachment and Self-focused Attention on Gratitude and Indebtedness
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to explore effects of attachment and self-focused attention on gratitude and indebtedness in benefit situation. A sample of 327 students(173 men and 154 women) completed questionnaires of each variable for this study. The results showed significant main effect of attachment on gratitude and indebtedness. General self-focused attention, which is one of the sub factors of self-focused attention, also showed significant main effect on gratitude. In addition interaction effect of general self-focused attention and attachment on gratitude was revealed. The results show that an individual who has stable attachment feels more gratitude and less indebtedness than who has unstable attachment. Findings of this study imply that introspection aspects of general self-focused attention could affect the increase of gratitude. This study suggests that the gratitude intervention should consider other possible internal variables. Finally, the implications and limitation of this study as well as suggestions for further research were discussed.
