Bowlby於1950年代提出依附理論，引起學者和實務工作者相當的注意，近20年來相關的研究更是蓬勃發展，並已累積相當的研究成果。然而，將依附理論有系統地運用於實務工作中，在臺灣青少年諮商工作中仍不多見。本文將說明依附理論的基本概念、青少年的依附關係和心理困擾之關聯，並討論在青少年諮商工作融合依附理論之作法。

Since the attachment theory was proposed by John Bowlby in 1950s, researchers and practitioners have been drawn attention to the tenets of this theory. There have been numerous studies examining the nature of individuals’ attachment, impacts of attachment on psychological disturbance, and implications of this theory on psychotherapy. Findings of research in the past twenty years are abundant. However, there are still few discussions on applying this theory in adolescent counseling in Taiwan. The purpose of this article is to provide brief review of attachment theory, summarize current literature on the relationships between adolescent attachment and psychological variables, finally, implications of this theory for adolescent counseling.
