(article). 940-956. The authors conducted 2 studies if attachment-related variations in thought suppression. Participants were asked, or not asked, to suppress thoughts about a relationship breakup and then to perform a Stroop task under high or low cognitive load. The dependent variables were the rebound or previously suppressed separation-related thoughts (Study 1) and the accessibility of self-traits (Study 2) Under low cognitive load, avoidant individuals did not show any rebound of separated-related thoughts and activated positive self-representations. Under high cognitive load avoidant participants failed to suppress thoughts of separation and were more likely to activate negative self-representations. Attachment anxiety was associated with high activation of negative self-representation and unremitting separation-related thoughts. The results are discussed in terms of the hidden vulnerabilities of avoidant individuals. -- (from the author) Psychology-Periodicals.
