This study aimed to explore how individual differences in attachment security and meaning-made predict continuing bonds expression among bereaved adults (n ¼ 237) using a moderated mediation model. Results of multiple regression analysis revealed an indirect effect of meaningmade on the negative relationship between attachment avoidance and continuing bonds. Results suggest that loss may be less disruptive to the meaning system of avoidant individuals and, therefore, avoidant individuals may express continuing bonds to a lesser extent. Findings implicate bereavement adjustment and grief-related interventions tailored to individual differences in attachment.
