ASQ
Secure
(n = 15)
Avoidant
(n = 10)
Anxious + Disorganized
(n = 12)
F (2, 36)
ASA Parent–Child 4.06 (0.87) 2.98 (1.05) 3.07 (1.03) 5.02 *
ASA Adult–Adult 3.73 (1.10) 2.56 (0.59) 2.79 (1.00) 5.35 *
ASA Total 4.05 (0.76) 2.80 (0.71) 3.08 (0.91) 8.85 **

Note. ASA Total = mean score across all four stories; ASA Parent–Child = mean score for “Baby’s Morning” and “Doctor’s Office”; ASA Adult–Adult = mean score for “Accident” and “Camping Trip”. For statistical power in this analysis, ASQ Disorganized profiles were analyzed together with Anxious profiles, as the anxious components were strongest in both. All post-hoc comparisons (Scheffé) between Secure and Avoidant, and between Secure and Anxious + Disorganized were significant with p < 0.05. * p < 0.01, and ** p < 0.001.
