Thank you for supplying this reference. I 
will pursue gettng a copy.  As a psychodramatist and trainer the connection 
which is perceived and formed (the relationship) is at the core of the work for 
me., and most likely all psychodramatists. Role theory and analysis, 
access to roles, group position related to roles and choice-making activity 
within the self and the group is all part of the structure I have for 
understanding what is going on.   I have recently accepted the 
challenge inherent in Daniel J. Siegel's work and in Moreno's vision, to see 
into the other. Siegel goes so far as to see into the mind of the other, letting 
what we know about the way we are "wired" (neural circuitry) extend us toward 
each others world view and bring acceptance, authenticity, receptivity, 
compassion and kindness into the relationship and create a coherent 
relationship.  I am curious about how understanding of attachment can 
help me have more flexibility and openness or help me find sufficient detachment 
to reflect and sense more fully what is going on.  
That is what is driving this question for 
me, and the guidance you have given helps me remember the root of "the self 
emerges from the roles" and find ways to link theories we find helpful. Thank 
you. Ann Hale

  Hi 
  Ann and grouptalkers
  I 
  wrote my paper on attachment and psychodrama in 2007 and found the above 
  reference very helpful to my thinking about attachment in adults.  Dallos identifies ‘attachment 
  strategies’ which I relate to ‘roles’ – for me this is a more flexible 
  construction than ‘attachment styles’ - it allows for different strategies in 
  different contexts - and also is more positive in relation to capacity to 
  change.  I found this approach 
  easier to align with psychodrama theory than a styles classification system, 
  as elicited by AAI.
  Cheers
