Abstract The present study focuses the association between talkaholic trait and attachment styles among the married females using a quantitative study, cross-sectional, correlational research design. For this study, the talkaholic scale (McCrosskey, J. C., & Richmond, V. P, 1993) and Revised Adult Attachment Scale (Collins, 1996)- Close Relationship Version were administered to 202 married females from Tamil Nadu, India. The descriptive statistics showed on average the compulsive talking trait among the married women were 30.67 (SD = 6.228) and the anxiety attachment style of 18.00 (SD = 3.296). The research shows that there is a strong positive correlation between talkaholic and attachment anxiety (r = .387, p = .000). The alternate hypothesis is accepted, giving that compulsive talking can be a reflection of anxious attachment style of a person, especially in married women as this study focused only on married women. With this the therapies can shift its view of understanding about talkaholics. Limitations are unmarried women, and women with minimal formal education. Also, this focused only on women participants, the future researches can also focus on male participants, unmarried females, and other excluded options.
Keywords Talkaholic trait, Attachment styles, Anxiety, Married females.
