当成年人回忆起其他人接受和回应的经历时，可以让他们体验到国家依恋安全感（例如，感到平静、关心和信任）。在两个实验中，我们测试了在亲密关系的背景下接受深情的触摸是否会自然地促进国家依恋安全。正如假设的那样，想象接受触摸的参与者在记忆任务中更容易获得安全词（实验 1），而从浪漫伴侣那里实际接受触摸的参与者自我报告比没有接受触摸的参与者有更高的国家安全感（实验 2）。关系背景（浪漫伴侣或亲密朋友）和触摸的归因都不会调节触摸对国家安全的影响。然而，与预测一致，对于回避依恋程度较低的人来说，触摸比回避程度较高的人更能提高安全感。通过促进国家安全，触摸可以促进积极的关系行为和认知，从而改善和保护成人关系。
Adults can be made to experience state attachment security (e.g., feel calm, cared for, and trusting) when they recall experiences, in which others were accepting and responsive. In two experiments, we tested whether receiving affectionate touch in the context of a close relationship naturally promotes state attachment security. As hypothesized, participants who imagined receiving touch had greater accessibility of secure words on a memory task (Experiment 1) and participants who physically received touch from their romantic partners self-reported greater state security (Experiment 2) than participants who did not receive touch. Neither the relationship context (romantic partner or close friend) nor the attribution for the touch moderated touch’s effect on state security. However, consistent with predictions, touch promoted security more for individuals low in avoidant attachment than highly avoidant individuals. By promoting state security, touch may facilitate positive relational behaviors and cognitions to improve and protect adult relationships.
