چکیده مقاله:
Background: Individuals with alexithymia have a limited ability to adapt to stressful situations, leading to high levels of psychological
distress, anxiety, and stress symptoms.
Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the role of insecure attachment in psychological distress within Islamic Azad Universities
of Tehran in ۲۰۲۰ by mediating alexithymia.
Methods: The structural equation modeling (SEM) was used as the primary research method in this study. The study population
included all university students between ۲۰- and ۴۰-years old studying at the Islamic Azad Universities of Tehran in the ۲۰۱۹ - ۲۰
academic year. A total of ۳۰۵ students was selected as samples using the multi-stage cluster sampling method. Several research tools
were used, including the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale, the Experiences in Close Relationships-Revised (ECR-R), and the Toronto
Alexithymia Scale (TAS-۲۰). The data were analyzed using a correlation matrix in SPSS statistical software version ۲۴ and SEM in
Amos-۲۶.
Results: The results indicated that the insecure attachment style had a direst positive effect on the states of psychological distress
(anxiety, stress, anddepression) (P< ۰.۰۰۱). Alexithymia also played a mediating role in insecure attachment affecting psychological
distress (P < ۰.۰۰۱).
Conclusions: Results revealed in the correlation between insecure attachment and states of psychological distress mediated by
the alexithymia. Given the importance of attachment style and alexithymia in the development of anxiety, stress, and depression,
therapists are recommended to take these variables into account.
