520 _aConstituting the two main domains of the theoretical and scientific comprehension of human beings, attachment theory and psychoanalysis have developed autonomously, maintaining contact points. This research aims to link them empirically by focusing on psychoanalytic theories of object relations. The Attachment Story Completion Task was administered to a sample of 51 children in preschool and school. The narratives were analyzed independently, the emotional tone of the internal object-world, measured according to the size of the affective tone of relationship paradigms of social cognition and object relations and the scale depending on the consistency and security of the emerging attachment representations. We have also applied the WPPSI-R to monitor the potential effects of language skills in the production of narratives. We found a significant positive correlation between quality of attachment representations and the affective tone of internal objects, and results are discussed in terms of similarities and differences between these two theoretical concepts.
