However, this association may present differently based on one's country of membership and expression of pride. In contrast to the Eurocentric definition of pride in the United States, pride means both pleasant and unpleasant\/disengagement emotions in Chinese culture. This cross\u2010cultural study aimed to examine the moderating effect of pride in the association between attachment anxiety\/avoidance and depressive symptoms in both the United States and China. Adults (\n                    <jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u2009770) from China (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u2009410) and the United States (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u2009360) completed self\u2010report measures. The results of moderation analyses (PROCESS Model 1) indicated a marginally significant interaction effect of attachment insecurity\u2009\u00d7\u2009pride in predicting depressive symptoms among Chinese individuals, but not among US individuals. Specifically, greater attachment insecurity significantly exacerbated depressive symptoms for Chinese individuals who expressed heightened levels of pride. The role of attachment on depressive symptoms may vary significantly by levels of pride among Chinese individuals. This study highlights the importance of considering culturally congruent emotions such as pride when examining attachment\u2010based mental health.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ijop.70274","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,2]],"date-time":"2026-10-02T12:04:06Z","timestamp":1790942646000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["A Cross\u2010Cultural Study of Attachment and Depression: The Role of Pride"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"61","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6858-360X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hawra","family":"Al\u2010Khaz'Aly","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Werklund School of Education University of Calgary  Calgary Alberta Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-4282-0618","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Zixin","family":"Guo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Werklund School of Education University of Calgary  Calgary Alberta Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6487-0393","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Chye Hong","family":"Liew","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Psychologist in Private Practice, Compassionate Life Psychology  San Diego California USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wenzhen","family":"Zhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Psychology Central China Normal University  Wuhan Hubei China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5875-2905","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ling","family":"Jin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Werklund School of Education University of Calgary  Calgary Alberta Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/0003\u2010066X.46.4.333"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/0003\u2010066X.63.7.602"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","volume-title":"Attachment and Loss: Vol. 1.
