Thesis (Ph.D.)--Long Island University, The Brooklyn Center, 2009.

Research has indicated that bereavement is associated with various health and psychological risks, particularly among elderly adults. While adult attachment theorists have begun to discover some associations between patterns of attachment and bereavement outcome, there continue to be many unanswered questions. Based on the fact that theoretical and empirical literature has suggested that God may serve as a substitute attachment figure when important loved ones are lost, the current study aimed to explore one potential moderator in the relationship between adult attachment and bereavement: attachment to God. Unlike past studies that have relied primarily on self-report measures of attachment and bereavement, this study incorporated narrative coding measures of state of mind with respect to attachment figures and to loss. 80 elderly participants (age 72 to 99 years) from three distinct ethnic groups (Caucasian, African American, and Caribbean) completed measures of adult attachment, attachment to God, and bereavement. The hypothesis that there would be a negative correlation between security of attachment and maladaptive bereavement was partially supported. Attachment to God was not found to moderate this relation. Exploratory analyses revealed support that there is a direct correspondence between adult attachment and attachment to God. The impact of gender and ethnicity were explored as well as implications for future research.
