The influence of attachment styles through the mediation effect of general anger and self-esteem ispublished: pub subjects: uneat_ps divisions: uneatlantico_produccion_cientifica full_text_status: none keywords: Driving anger; Trait general anger; Self-esteem; Attachment styles abstract: Trait driving anger has been widely studied in recent years. However, whereas its proximal (personality) correlates have been well established, possible distal variables have not yet been explored. The aim of the current research study was to analyse the association of attachment styles with trait driving anger, by testing the hypothesis that both trait general anger and self-esteem would mediate this relationship. The results revealed positive and significant relationships between preoccupation, self-sufficiency, value of parental authority and parental interference, and trait driving anger. Furthermore, a SEM-based multiple mediation analysis showed that both trait general anger and self-esteem significantly mediated the relationship between preoccupation and trait driving anger, and self-sufficiency and trait driving anger, with a medium effect size (f2 = 0.16). Finally, some aspects of the research in this new area are addressed, and both the clinical implications of these results and the limitations of the study are discussed. date: 2020-08 publication: Transportation Research Part F: Traffic Psychology and Behaviour volume: 73 pagerange: 382-390 id_number: doi:10.1016/j.trf.2020.07.005 refereed: TRUE issn: 13698478 official_url: http://doi.org/10.1016/j.trf.2020.07.005 access: close language: en citation: Artículo Materias > Psicología Universidad Europea del Atlántico > Investigación > Producción Científica Cerrado Inglés Trait driving anger has been widely studied in recent years.
