This study examined whether attachment theory could be used to shed light on the often high degree of discordance between self - and observer ratings of behavioral functioning and symptomatology. Interview - based assessments of attachment organization, using the Adult Attachment Interview, were examined as predictors of the lack of agreement between self - and other reports of behavioral and emotional problems among 176 moderately at-risk adolescents. Lack of agreement was measured in terms of concordance of adolescent and parent or close friend report on equivalent measures of behavioral and emotional adjustment. Insecure – dismissing attachment was linked to less agreement in absolute terms between self - and mother reports of externalizing symptoms, and between adolescent and close friend reports of behavioral conduct. Insecure –preoccupied attachment was associated with higher levels of adolescent reporting of internalizing and externalizing symptoms relative to parent reports of adolescent symptomatology. The findings suggest that attachment organization may be one factor that accounts for individual differences in the degree of discordance between self - and other reports of symptoms in adolescence.
