To illustrate, a neurotypical, insecurely attached adult may strongly agree with the statement “I get uncomfortable when a romantic partner wants to be very close” (an ECR item) because they fear intimacy due to issues surrounding trust. In contrast, an adult with autism may respond similarly due to their very different physical sensory issues. To consider another example, disagreement with the statement “I am confident that other people will like and respect me” (taken from the Attachment Style Questionnaire; Feeney et al., 1994) is attributed to an “anxious/preoccupied” attachment style, and is purported to be indicative of insecure attachment to a romantic partner. For an autistic adult, this may be a simple matter-of-fact acknowledgement that they are often socially misunderstood.
