Study Notes
Types of Love
- Sternberg's triangular model of love consists of three dimensions: passion, intimacy, and commitment.
- These dimensions combine to form various types of love, including infatuation, romantic love, liking, companionate love, empty love, fatuous love, and consummate love.
Adult Attachment Styles
- Attachment theory suggests that infant attachment styles shape our close adult relationships.
- Three main infant attachment styles, influenced by parental behavior, are:
- Secure attachment: associated with warm and responsive parenting.
- Avoidant attachment: associated with cold and rejecting parenting.
- Anxious/ambivalent attachment: associated with ambivalent or inconsistent parenting.
Loneliness
- Loneliness can occur following a life transition, but chronic loneliness is linked to impaired physical and mental health.
- The impact of technological advances on loneliness is debated, with some arguing they hinder social engagement and others suggesting they facilitate it.
