摘要
We investigated associations between attachment, psychopathology, quality of life, service utilisation and costs. Twenty-five people with psychosis completed self-report measures and service use was assessed from case note review. Insecure attachment was associated with greater psychopathology and higher service utilisation and costs. Insecure anxious attachment was related to higher service utilisation independent of symptoms.
