Abstract
Data from the CREATE study were analyzed to observe how healthy, strong attachment affects commitment levels in newly married couples. Results indicate that there is a positive and statistically significant association between attachment and commitment. The other control variables did not have a statistically significant effect on the dependent variable: commitment. The R2 for each of the models suggests that attachment explains a substantial portion of the variation in commitment.
