Note: since the presentation of this poster, the name of the instrument has been changed to ECR-RS. The study examined the validity of the nine-item Security Scale of the ECR-RS using data from 173 mother-adolescent dyads. The attachment instrument was validated through investigating correlations between the ECR-RS Total Security Scale and relevant measures of parenting style, Family climate, Child disclosure and Adolescent mental health. The results indicates that the ECR-RS is a useful instrument to measure attachment security in the age range 10 to 17 years.
