Resumo: The Experiences in Close Relationships Inventory permits to evaluate attachment in close relationships during adulthood based on two dimensions able to be present in this kind of relationships: the avoidance of proximity and the anxiety related with to abandonment. It is a self-report 7- points likert scale composed by 36 items. The Portuguese version was administered to a sample of 551 university students (60% female), the majority with ages between 19 and 24 years old (88%) in a dating relationship (86%). The principal components analysis with oblimin rotation was performed. The total scale has good internal consistency (α=.86), as also has the 2 sub-scales: anxiety (α=.86) and avoidance (α=.88). The two dimensions evaluated are significantly correlated with socio-demographics, relational characteristics (jealousy, relationship distress, and compromise), wishes (enmeshment versus differentiation) and fears (abandonment versus control) related to attitudes in significant relationships, which testify the construct validity of the instrument. The results obtained are coherent with the original version and other ECR‘s adaptations. Practitioners and researchers in the context of clinical psychology and related areas have now at their disposal the Portuguese version of the ECR inventory, which has shown its very high usefulness in the study of close relationships, and specifically attachment in adulthood.

É uma medida de auto-relato com 36 itens e 7 categorias de resposta tipo likert. A versão portuguesa do ECR foi administrada a uma amostra de 551 estudantes universitários (60% do sexo feminino), na sua maioria com idades compreendidas entre 19 e 24 anos (88%), e actualmente numa relação do tipo namoro (86%). Realizou-se a análise dos componentes principais e aplicou-se a rotação oblimin. Os valores de consistência interna para a escala total são elevados (α=.86), assim como para as duas sub-escalas: evitamento (α=.88) e ansiedade (α=.86). As dimensões avaliadas pelo inventário correlacionam-se significativamente com variáveis sócio-demográficas, componentes relacionais (compromisso, ciúme, mal-estar relacional), desejos (emaranhamento versus diferenciação) e medos (abandono versus controlo) subjacentes às atitudes com relações significativas, que confirmam a validade de construto do instrumento. Os resultados obtidos para a amostra em estudo são coerentes com a versão original e outras adaptações do ECR. Investigadores e práticos no âmbito da psicologia clínica e áreas afins têm agora à sua disposição a versão portuguesa do inventário ECR para o estudo das relações íntimas, em particular a determinação das dimensões de vinculação na idade adulta.L‘inventaire 'Experiences in Close Relationships’ permet évalué l‘attachement dans le rapport intime durant l‘age adulte se basent en deux dimension susceptible d‘être présentes dans ce genre de rapport: l‘évitement de la proximité e l‘anxiété relative a l‘abondons.

La version portugaise de l‘ECR a été administré a 551 élèves universitaires (60% du sexe féminin), dans sa majorité avec ages comprises entre 19 et 24 ans (88%), et actuellement dans une relation du pré marital (86%).
