Examined discriminant validity of the Adult Attachment Interview (AAI) vis-a-vis intelligence, social desirability, discourse style, and general social adjustment. Subjects were 53 native-English-speaking, married women with preschool children. Found modest but significant correlations between IQ scores and social adjustment. Found no relation between AAI classifications and discourse style or social desirability. (MDM)
