“…Furthermore, the association between attachment security and mentalization deficit was investigated using an independent measure of mentalization in a sample of 259 adolescents admitted to an inpatient unit, and findings showed that hypermentalizing was significantly correlated with attachment insecurity, assessed dimensionally as CAI narrative coherence (Sharp et al, 2016). …”

“…Recently, several studies have also started to examine the RF"s putative mediation role linking insecure adolescent or adult attachment to BPD symptom expression (Carlson, Egeland, & Sroufe, 2009;Fossati et al, 2009;Fossati, Feeney, Maffei, & Borroni, 2011, 2014Sharp, Venta, et al, 2016). Fossati and colleagues provided three cross-sectional studies carried on community samples, examining the relationships between avoidant and anxious attachment dimensions and conceptual cousins of RF processes (i.e.…”

“…preoccupied and fearful), is related to BPD diagnosis via alexithymia features, namely difficulties in describing and being aware of ones" own feelings, thereby hinting to impairments in RF. Finally, based on a multiple mediational approach, Sharp et al (2016) investigated the cross-sectional interplay between attachment, objective performance to a socio-cognitive task, self-reported emotion regulation and borderline features in a sample of 259 adolescent inpatients. They observed that, unlike emotion dysregulation, excessive RF capacities independently mediated the relation between attachment insecurity and level of BPD features in adolescence.…”
