The Mediating Roles of Self-related Variables in relation between Attachment and Psychosis

Abstract

To investigate whether the self-related variables, self-image and self-esteem, mediate the relation between attachment and psychosis, attachment styles to mothers and fathers in high school female adolescents were measured and paranoia, psychasthenia and schizophrenia scales among MMPI subscales were used. Covariance structure analysis confirmed the self-image is the mediating variable in the relation between attachment and psychosis. It is concluded that attachments to caregiver in infancy influence to later psychosis by way of self-image. Results were discussed in terms of epigenetic principles of Erik Erikson.
