所有亲密关系中的健康适应——无论是与父母、朋友还是浪漫伴侣——都需要在与关系伙伴的联系和独立之间取得平衡。对于某些人来说,在一种或多种关系中的适应是倾斜的,或者其特征是过度关注阻碍自主性的亲密性(全神贯注的立场)或过度关注自主性阻碍亲密性的(回避性立场)。在这项针对 9-14 岁男孩和女孩的研究中,那些对母亲表现出全神贯注或回避态度的孩子,随着时间的推移,在同龄群体中表现出越来越严重的社交障碍。孩子们对母亲、父亲和最好的朋友的态度之间存在可预见的关联。孩子们在关系方面就像他们最好的朋友。该研究说明了将常见的关系结构(例如,自主相关性)应用于研究不同的亲密关系的优势。
Healthy adaptation within all close relationships-whether with parents, friends, or romantic partners-involves striking a balance between connectedness to and independence from the relationship partner. For some individuals, adaptation within one or more relationships is skewed, or characterized by either an excessive concern for closeness that impedes autonomy (preoccupied stance) or an excessive concern for autonomy that inhibits closeness (avoidant stance). Ln this study with boys and girls aged 9-14 years, children who reported a preoccupied or avoidant stance toward their mother displayed increased social impairment in the peer group over time. There were predictable associations among children's stances toward mother, father, and best friend. Children resembled their best friend in relationship stance. The study illustrates the advantages of applying common relationship constructs (e.g., autonomy-relatedness) to the study of diverse close relationships.
