Dear Colleague:
Thank you for your request for information concerning the research that we have
conducted on adolescents’ perceived attachment to peers and parents. First, we have
enclosed a copy of our article in the Journal of Youth and Adolescence in 1987 that
introduced the Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment. We have also enclosed a
manual providing information on our factor analyses of the scales, information on
reliability of the scales, and a scoring key.
Since the study reported in the 1987 paper was carried out, we have revised the IPPA. In
her dissertation, Gay Armsden modified the IPPA so as to separately assess perceived
quality of attachment to mothers and fathers (instead of parents together). We have
enclosed a copy of this unpublished measure, The IPPA (Mother, Father, Peer Version),
and a page of scoring information. In her study of over 400 college students, Gay has
found that most of the same items fall on the same factors for mothers and father
separately that we found in the factor analysis of parents together on the IPPA. However,
there were enough differences in loadings that we judged it best to discourage the use of
subscales in the revised version of the IPPA until further research could be done.
Recommended scoring for this version thus involves total scores for Mother, Father, and
Peer, but no subscale scores. However, while scoring subscales is not advised, we have
included instructions for doing so, since many researchers have requested this
information.
If you have further questions, please feel free to call (814 863-0112) or e-mail Gay
Armsden at (g.armsden@gmail.com), or write. If you decide to use our measures in data
collection, please let us know. We would also appreciate a copy of papers that utilize the
measure(s).

Variables Measured:
Parent and Peer Attachment (original version)
Mother, Father, and Peer Attachment (revised version)
Instrument Description:
The IPPA was developed in order to assess adolescents’ perceptions of the positive and
negative affective/cognitive dimension of relationships with their parents and close
friends -- particularly how well these figures serve as sources of psychological security.
The theoretical framework is attachment theory, originally formulated by Bowlby and
recently expanded by others. Three broad dimensions are assessed: degree of mutual
trust; quality of communication; and extent of anger and alienation. The development
samples were 16 to 20 years of age; however the IPPA has been used successfully in
several studies with adolescents as young as 12. The instrument is a self-report
questionnaire with a five point likert-scale response format. The original version consists
of 28 parents and 25 peer items, yielding two attachment scores. The revised version
(Mother, Father, Peer Version) is comprised of 25 items in each of the mother, father, and
peer sections, yielding three attachment scores. The IPPA is scored by reverse-scoring
the negatively worded items and then summing the response values in each section.

RELIABILITY:
Three week test-retest reliabilities for a sample of 27 18- to 20-year-olds were .93 for
parent attachment and .86 for peer attachment.
For the revised version, internal reliabilities (Cronbach’s alpha) are: Mother attachment,
.87; Father attachment, .89; Peer attachment, .92.
VALIDITY:
Among late adolescents, parental attachment scores are moderately to highly related to
Family and Social Self scores from the Tennessee Self Concept Scale and to most
subscales on the Family Environmental Scale (Armsden & Greenberg, 1987). Parent
attachment scores of 12- to 18-year-olds are also moderately correlated with scores on the
FACES, and with the degree of positive family coping (communication among family
members and relatives concerning problems) (Lewis, Woods, & Ellison, 1987). In a
sample of 10- to 16-year-old psychiatric patients, less secure parent attachment was
related to clinical diagnosis of depression, parent rating of the adolescent’s depressive
symptoms, and to patient’s self-reported level of depression (Armsden, McCauley,
Greenberg, Burke, & Mitchell, 1991). Attachment to parents has been found to
discriminate delinquents from non-delinquents among 12- to 17-year-olds (Redondo,
Martin, Fernandez, & Lopez, 1986). Late adolescents experiencing more secure mother
and father attachment report less conflict between their parents and experience less
loneliness (Armsden, 1986).
Peer attachment is positively related to social self concept as assessed by the Tennessee
Self Concept Scale and family expressiveness on the Family Environment Scale, and is
strongly negatively correlated with loneliness. Peer attachment is modestly correlated
with parent attachment as assessed by the IPPA as well as measures of general family
functioning and self concept as family member (Armsden & Greenberg, 1987; Armsden,
1986; Lewis et al., 1987).
Scores on the IPPA have also been found to be associated with a number of personality
variables. Among late adolescents, parent and peer attachment are correlated with
positiveness and stability of self-esteem, life-satisfaction, and affective status (depression,
anxiety, resentment/alienation, covert anger, and loneliness) (Armsden & Greenberg,
1987; Armsden, 1986). The relationship of attachment and affective status holds even
when degree of negative life-change is controlled (Armsden & Greenberg, 1987).
Quality of attachment to parents and to a lesser extent, peers, is associated with selfreported tendencies toward the use of more problem-solving coping strategies relative to
emotion-managing efforts in stressful situations (Armsden, 1986). Among early to
middle adolescents, parent attachment, and to a lesser extent, peer attachment, were
found to be associated with lesser hopelessness and less externally oriented locus of
3
control and with greater self-management (coping) skills (Armsden et al., 1987; Lewis et
al., 1987).
Scores on the IPPA were not found to be significantly related to socio-economic status
among a sample of 400 18- to 20-year-olds. In the same study, negligible but significant
positive correlations were obtained between attachment and parents’ education levels
(Armsden, 1986).
SUGGESTIONS IN USAGE:
(1) The revised version of the IPPA (Mother, Father, Peer version) separately assesses
mother and father attachment; the authors recommend its use over the original
version whenever possible.

SCORING INSTRUCTIONS
Calculation of Total Parent and Peer Attachment Scores
Separate Parent Attachment and Peer Attachment summary scores are obtained by
reverse-scoring items as listed below. It is necessary to also reverse score all Alienation
subscale items.
Subscale Scoring (see Table below)
The original IPPA has three Parent and Peer subscales. Subscale scores are computed by
summing the item responses. Responses to negatively worded items must be reversescored before calculations.

*Some of these subscales are highly correlated on the original version of the instrument, making their independence questionable. Initial
investigation of the dimensional structure of the revised version suggests a similar structure, but some differences exist between Mother and Father
Attachment in item-content of the dimensions. Further investigation is warranted.
