Aims. The attachment formed in early childhood affects an individual’s mental and physical health. The aim of the study was to assess the psychometric properties of the Slovak version of the ECR-R questionnaire designed to detect attachment in adulthood, to create a shorter version, and to examine the sociodemographic differences in anxiety and avoidance among Slovak respondents. Sample, settings, and methods. In a cross-sectional study with a representative sample of the adult Slovak population (N=1018, age 46.24, SD 16.56, 48.7% men), data were collected using the Slovak translation of the ECR-R questionnaire. The Slovak version of the Relationship Questionnaire (RQ) was used to assess the convergence validity. Results. The data of the psychometric analysis of the shortened version of the Close Relationship Questionnaire, the ECR-R-SK-14, indicate its better suitability for measuring relationship in adulthood compared to the ECR-R-16 version. Convergent validity was confirmed. Sociodemographic differences in individual groups of the Slovak population, which were expanded to include subjectively perceived loneliness in the last year of life, were described. Summary. The ECR-R questionnaire and its shorter version, the ECR-R-SK-14, are suitable tools for measuring relationships in adulthood, whether scientific or clinical. Limitations. The complete version of the ECR-R questionnaire can be difficult for some respondents to understand due to a large number of reversely formulated questions.

Experiences in Close Relationship-Revisited (ECR-R) are the most frequently used measure of self-reported adult attachment. Numerous studies have shown its general utility and similarity across language translations and cultures; some studies showed important differences in attachment style structure and also the need to reword/adapt some items. We explored the psychometric properties of the Slovak translation of ECR-R on a general adult sample (Study 1, n = 921). In Study 2 (n = 100) participants also filled out the Slovak version of NEO-FFI for further information on its relation to the major personality structure theory for concurrent and sEMBU for convergent validity. The results showed good psychometric properties of the Slovak translation of ECR-R. Factor analysis sorted items to scales exactly as authors of ECR-R presupposed. We found mild to moderate correlation between Anxiety and Neuroticism and Avoidance and Neuroticism; and mild correlation to some sEMBU scales. We also discuss what would help to improve knowledge and utility of the Slovak version of ECR-R.
