We are studying the attachment style and childhood experiences of people who have a history of psychosis or bipolar disorder and people who have no such mental health histories.

Attachment style is a term psychologists use to refer to the different ways people have learned to relate to the people they feel most close to, mainly from their experiences when they were young.

We also want to understand whether there are any cultural differences in the attachment styles of people from African-Caribbean, White-British and other cultural backgrounds. We feel that the attachment and childhood experiences of people from other cultural backgrounds have not been studied enough and we would like to change this. A better understanding of these experiences may help us to improve the experience of the clinical services people receive when in need.
