Abstract

The present study looked to illustrate the convergent and divergent validity of the Relationship Profile Test (RPT), which is a 30‐item self‐report measuring destructive overdependence, dysfunctional detachment, and healthy dependence. The RPT items are written to draw upon Bornstein's (1992, 1993) 4‐component model as well as other essential components of the dimension in question (Bornstein et al., 2003). The results reveal that the subscales of the RPT are related in predictable ways to scores on measures of adult attachment, interpersonal distress, and psychological health and well‐being. The clinical implications of the results and the assessment of dependency in the clinical setting are discussed. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Clin Psychol 66: 1–14, 2010.
