Abstract

Objective: Attachment styles reflect individual differences in beliefs about oneself and others, interpersonal functioning and close relationships. This study intended to investigate attachment styles of vaginismus patients. Methods: Our sample was included 56 patients with vaginismus and 51 healthy women. Golombok Rust Inventory of Sexual Satisfaction Scale (GRISS) and Relationship Scales Questionnaire (RSQ) were administered to the patients and healthy control group. Results: The scores of the vaginismus group for secure attachment scores were statistically significantly lower than the healthy control group while there was no difference between the groups for the fearful, preoccupied and dismissive attachment subscale scores. GRISS total and subscale scores were statistically higher in women with an insecure attachment style when the total sample as divided into two groups as secure and insecure attached individuals. Conclusions: These findings taken together support the notion that insecure attachment may be an important factor in the pathogenesis of vaginismus.

Özet

Amaç: Bağlanma stilleri bireyin kendi ve diğerleri hakkında inançları, kişilerarası işlevleri ve yakın ilişkilerindeki bireysel farklılıkları yansıtır. Bu çalışmada vajinismus hastalarında bağlanma stillerinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: Örneklemimiz vajinismus tanısı konan 56 hasta ve 51 sağlıklı kadından oluşmaktadır. Hasta ve sağlıklı kontrol grubuna Golombok Rust Cinsel Doyum Ölçeği (GRCDÖ) ve İlişki Ölçekleri Anketi uygulandı. Bulgular: Vajinismus grubunda güvenli bağlanma puanları sağlıklı kontrol grubundan istatistiksel olarak anlamlı biçimde daha düşükken, korkulu, saplantılı ve kayıtsız güvensiz bağlanma alt ölçek puanları arasında fark yoktu. Tüm örneklem güvenli ve güvensiz bağlanan bireyler olarak iki gruba ayrıldığında, GRCDÖ toplam ve alt ölçek puanları güvensiz bağlanan kadınlarda daha yüksekti. Tartışma: Bu sonuçlar bir arada ele alındığında güvensiz bağlanmanın vajinismus pato-genezinde önemli olabileceğini desteklemektedir.
