Items in Chinese

类型1（安全型)
对我来说，在感情上和他人变得亲近是一件比较容易的事情。信赖他人或让他人信赖我，我都觉得这是很自在的事。我不担心自己独处，或者不被他人所接受。

类型2（回避型)
即使在感情上没有和他人建立亲密的关系，我也会觉得自在。对我来说最重要的是要自立，什么都自己干。我倾向于不依赖他人，也不喜欢让他人依赖我。

类型3（矛盾型)
我想和他人在感情上非常亲密，但是我经常发现他人并不愿意像我所希望的那样。如果关系不亲密，我会觉得不自在，但我有时担心他人并不象我重视他（/她）那样地重视我。

类型4（恐惧型)
跟他人亲近，我会觉得有点儿不自在。我需要感情上的亲密关系，但是我发现很难完全信任他人或者依赖他人。有时，我担心如果与他人过于亲近的话，会对我构成伤害。

Items in English

Type 1 (Secure)
It is relatively easy for me to become emotionally close to others. I am comfortable depending on others and having others depend on me. I don’t worry about being alone or having others not accept me.

Type 2 (Dismissive)
I am comfortable without close emotional relationships. It is very important to me to feel independent and self-sufficient, and I prefer not to depend on others or have others depend on me.

Type 3 (Preoccupied)
I want to be completely emotionally intimate with others, but I often find that others are reluctant to get as close as I would like. I am uncomfortable being without close relationships, but I sometimes worry that others don’t value me as much as I value them.

Type 4 (Fearful)
I am somewhat uncomfortable getting close to others. I want emotionally close relationships, but I find it difficult to trust others completely, or to depend on them. I sometimes worry that I will be hurt if I allow myself to become too close to others.
