TLDR
Investigation of the association between preschool children's attachment history and a relational pattern labeled “victimization" showed that victimization could be reliably identified and was clearly associated with attachment history.
Abstract
The association between preschool children's attachment history and a relational pattern labeled “victimization” was examined. The sample consisted of 38 children 4 to 5 years of age. These children were assigned to pairs and observed during a series of free play interactions. The pairings included various combinations of secure and anxious attachment histories. These dyads were rated for the presence or absence of victimization. Results showed that victimization could be reliably identified and was clearly associated with attachment history. Furthermore, the presence of a child with an “avoidant” attachment history was associated with victimization and the presence of a child with a “secure” attachment history was associated with nonvictimization.

Security in infancy, childhood, and adulthood: A move to the level of representation.

Abstract: We are grateful to the Institute of Human Development, Berkeley, and to the Society for Research in Child Development for funding that made the study of our sample at 6 years possible. In its earlier phases, the Social Development Project was supported by the William T. Grant Foundation, by the Alvin Nye Main Foundation, and by Bio-Medical Support Grants 1-444036-32024 and 1-444036-32025 for studies in the behavioral sciences. The Child Study Center at the University of California was invaluable in its provision of subjects and in the training provided for our observers and examiners. The National Center for Clinical Infancy Programs provided support and assistance to Nancy Kaplan. This project would not have been possible without the direction and assistance provided by Donna Weston and by Bonnie Powers, Jackie Stadtman, and Stewart Wakeling in its first phases. For the initial identification of infants who should be left unclassified-an identification critical to the present study-we gratefully acknowledge both Judith Solomon and Donna Weston. Carol George participated in the designing of the sixth-year project; Ruth Goldwyn served as adult interviewer; and Ellen Richardson served as the child's examiner. The videotapes and transcripts of the sixth-year study were analyzed by Jude Cassidy, Anitra DeMoss, Ruth Goldwyn, Nancy Kaplan, Todd Hirsch, Lorraine Littlejohn, Amy Strage, and Reggie Tiedemann. Mary Ainsworth, John Bowlby, Harriet Oster, and Amy Strage provided useful criticism of earlier versions of this chapter. The overall conceptualization was substantially enriched by suggestions made by Erik Hesse.

TL;DR: Bowlby's "mother-child tie" as discussed by the authors is the first part of a two volume work, which should no doubt be viewed as a whole, and it is a worthy successor to the classic monograph on maternal separation with which the author came to the world's attention in 1951.
