Students' course evaluations often play an important role in career advancement for faculty. The authors examined the association between attachment representations of parents and course evaluations in a sample of 230 undergraduate students. They found a significant negative association between attachment anxiety with parents and course evaluation, thereby suggesting that insecure-anxious students were more likely to give negative course evaluations. The authors provide suggestions for professors to improve their scores on student course evaluations.
This study investigates the interaction of attachment styles and drama therapy (DT) techniques at various levels of therapeutic distance during brief therapy. Five mothers with children diagnosed with psychiatric disorders participated in a DT support group. Mother attachment styles and their responses to DT techniques were assessed using the Relationships Scales Questionnaire (RSQ). Participants had insecure attachment styles and appeared to prefer an overdistanced approach. Therefore, attuning to client attachment styles may help drama therapists titrate distance and support the therapeutic process.
