title: Scripting attachment: generalized event representations and internal working models.
abstract: The secure base script construct is an innovative methodology that provides a reliable, valid, and generative measure of the internal working model of attachment-related events based on theory and research on generalized event representations or scripts. Multiple aspects of theory and research on scripts can provide additional information about the ways in which internal working models may develop along the dimensions of elaboration, complexity, and flexibility.
