作者：
Highlights：
• We have lived in an age of ever-increasing connection this past decade.
• Technology may have increased the perceived availability of close others.
• Attachment anxiety decreased from 2002 to 2012, particularly among young adults.
• Anxiety was negatively associated with higher rates of technology usage.
• These findings are consistent with the proximity–enhancing effects of technology.
