Which attachment style is described as 'Relatively comfortable with others'?

• A. Anxious-Resistant Attachment
• B. Secure Attachment
• C. Anxious-Avoidant Attachment
• D. Disorganized-Disoriented Attachment

Answer: (B)

Secure attachment is marked by comfort with closeness and trust in others. When a caregiver is consistently responsive, a child learns that people can be reliable, forming a positive view of both self and others. This leads to seeking support when needed and being able to support others, while still feeling confident to explore the world with a secure base. In contrast, anxious-resistant attachment shows clinginess and fear of abandonment; anxious-avoidant attachment involves discomfort with closeness and emotional distance; disorganized-disoriented attachment combines confusion and unpredictable behaviors often linked to trauma. Therefore, being relatively comfortable with others aligns best with secure attachment.
