The attachment development has been studied since Bowlby, especially in an individual focus. Despite of its roots on childhood, the attachment has important consequences on adult life. It is related to the self-concept, self-esteem and to the capacity of giving and receiving support on adult life. Nowadays, studies have been focusing on the existence of the joint attachment on couples. These studies usually use concepts of the attachment theory and the systemic theory. This article deals with this concept of joint attachment script, as well as with the conceptual differences which exists on the literature about the couples' attachment. The importance of studying this concept refers to the idea that the couples' attachment can work as a safe base for their relation and for the family system, especially when the family is facing adverse situations.
