BDSM Practitioners Show Stronger Secure Attachment and Lower Neuroticism, Study Suggests

news health

New psychological research challenges stereotypes about BDSM. The study finds that adults who practice BDSM show more secure attachment and lower neuroticism than the general population. The findings come from a large sample using established personality and attachment measures. Data indicate BDSM participants report greater trust in relationships and higher emotional stability, consistent across genders and age groups.

Researchers used standard inventories to compare BDSM practitioners with non-practitioners. The results showed higher rates of secure attachment, reflecting comfort with emotional closeness and dependable bonds. They also showed notably lower neuroticism, implying resilience and steadier emotional responses. These patterns held true regardless of how often individuals engage in BDSM or their level of involvement.

Breaking Stereotypes: Study Finds BDSM Practitioners Show Higher Secure Attachment and Lower Neuroticism

news health

A new wave of psychological research defies stereotypes, revealing that people who practice BDSM—an umbrella term for bondage, discipline, dominance, submission, sadism, and masochism—actually demonstrate more secure attachment styles and lower levels of neuroticism than the general population, according to a recent study reported by PsyPost. The findings challenge widespread misconceptions about BDSM participants and suggest their emotional and psychological well-being may, in certain respects, surpass that of non-practitioners.

For years, BDSM practices have often been misunderstood or pathologized, both in the media and popular culture. This new research draws from robust psychological models to examine fundamental aspects of personality, specifically focusing on attachment theory—a framework that explores how people form secure or insecure emotional bonds—and neuroticism, a personality trait associated with emotional instability, anxiety, and negative emotions. By investigating these factors in BDSM practitioners, the study seeks to clarify whether engaging in these consensual activities is linked with psychological health or distress.

New Study Reveals Link Between Avoidant Parental Attachment and Growing Trend of Childfree Choices

news parenting

A groundbreaking new study has found that adults who report avoidant attachment to their parents are significantly more likely to choose a childfree lifestyle, a trend that is increasingly visible in both Western societies and emerging in Thai urban areas. The research, which analyzes psychological factors influencing reproductive decisions, adds valuable context to ongoing discussions about declining birth rates and shifting family expectations worldwide.

As Thailand faces an alarming drop in national birth rates — the lowest in decades according to the National Economic and Social Development Council (Bangkok Post) — the findings are particularly relevant. While economic uncertainties and shifting societal roles have been widely acknowledged as drivers, the new study highlights the impact of family attachments and early-life emotional bonds on adult choices to remain childfree.

A recent study signals a link between avoidant attachment to parents and a growing preference for a childfree life. The findings suggest that early emotional bonds shape adult decisions about parenthood, adding context to declines in birth rates and evolving family norms in Thailand and beyond.

Thailand faces a significant demographic challenge, with birth rates at historic lows. Data from national planning authorities show this trend intersects with economic uncertainty and changing gender roles. The new research adds another layer, showing that family attachments in childhood may influence whether adults choose not to have children.
