Social Ties: The feeling that
we are part of a group or have an identity.
Emotional Attachments: Feelings that
there is someone around to take care of us or help us out.
Where Does it Come From?
Assessing Your Emotional Attachments and Social Ties
Instructions:
Refer to the definitions of Emotional Attachments and Social Ties in the
chapter and then look at the following list.
If the item provides you with no support, put a “0”. If the item provides you with minimal
support, but a “1” in the appropriate space, or if you feel the item provides
you with a lot of support, put a “2” in the appropriate space. For example, for significant others, you may
have a 2 under Emotional Attachments, and a 1 or 0 under Social Ties.
You may also want the people who are
important to you to take this inventory and review their means of emotional
attachment and social ties. If you have
young children, you may want to review the inventory for them to make sure they
have adequate means of support.
