Variables associated with the secure attachment relationship with the teacher in adolescent students:

This document is a systematic review protocol that aims to investigate the variables associated with adolescent students' secure attachment relationship with teachers. The existing systematic review on this topic found that children with a secure attachment relationship with teachers have better academic and socio-emotional indices. However, there are currently no similar reviews for adolescents. Inclusion criteria for articles include: published in peer-reviewed journals in Portuguese, English, or Spanish; from 1969 to present; a sample of adolescents (10 to 19 years old); and results related to attachment with teachers. Furthermore, studies must be empirical, have Attachment Theory as a theoretical basis, and gathered from the following databases: ERIC (EBSCO), MEDLINE (EBSCO), PsycINFO (Ovid), Web of Science, Scopus, Scielo, Redalyc. The JBI Critical Appraisal checklists will be used to verify the risk of bias as well as the quality of the studies. It intends to present the outcomes through narrative descriptions and, if possible, meta-analytical statistics.
