Answer to Question 1

Attachment phases must progress from preattachment to a goal-corrected partnership and correspond to stages of attachment in middle childhood (seeks friendships; confides in others; relies on others for reassurance; expresses concern over separation from family or friends).

Poor attachment in infancy and/or middle childhood might be linked to unstable friend or partner relationships in adolescence or adulthood.
