But after that, the trail grows cold: the study of adult attachment emphasizes individual variations, paying little attention to the normative mechanisms of adult bonding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA much-needed corrective, \u003ci\u003eBases\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eof\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eAdult\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eAttachment\u003c\/i\u003e examines this under-investigated topic with an eye toward creating a robust theoretical model. The first volume of its kind, its multilevel approach integrates current findings from neuroscience and psychology to analyze the processes by which adult relationships develop, mature, function and dissolve. Here in relevant detail are factors contributing to initial attraction, possible scenarios in the evolution from friendship to attachment and the changes that occur on both sides of a relationship as partners mutually influence each other's behavior, emotions, cognition and even physiology. And expert contributors address long-neglected questions in the field with stimulating topics such as: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe distress-relief dynamic in attachment bonding.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn expectancy-value approach to attachment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe biobehavioral legacy of early attachment relationships for adult emotional and interpersonal functioning.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow early experiences shape attraction, partner preferences, and attachment dynamics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow mental representations change as attachments form.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInsights into the formation of attachment bonds from a social network perspective.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eBases\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eof\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eAdult\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eAttachment\u003c\/i\u003e will interest scholars approaching adult attachment at multiple levels of analysis (neural, physiological, affective, cognitive and behavioral) and from multiple perspectives.

Her research examines the cognitive and affective processes that regulate behaviors within close relationships. She approaches the study of the individual and his or her relationships from a multi-level, interdisciplinary perspective that bridges the study of attachment processes with research on executive control and self-regulation and blurs traditionally defined boundaries between social and personality psychology and cognitive and cognitive neuroscience.
