数据froth国家青少年健康和技术研究的青少年13-18岁(N = 5091)被用来检查网上形成的浪漫关系。结果显示,女同性恋,男同性恋,双性恋,变性人和酷儿(LGBTQ)和非LGBTQ青少年同样最有可能在过去的12个月里在学校遇到他们最近的男孩/女朋友。然而,他们在浪漫关系开始的许多特征上存在差异,包括他们在网上开始浪漫关系的程度。LGBTQ和非LGBTQ青少年在离线接触潜在伴侣的水平、离线受欢迎程度以及可能与在线关系启动相关的许多其他因素(例如,互联网使用和人口因素)。即使调整了这些因素的差异,LGBTQ青少年在过去12个月里也比非LGBTQ青少年更有可能在网上找到男/女朋友。研究结果支持了富人更富假说和社会补偿假说。(C)2015年青少年服务专业人士基金会。由爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
Data froth the national Teen Health and Technology Study of adolescents 13-18 years old (N = 5091) were used to examine online formation of romantic relationships. Results show that lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) and non-LGBTQ adolescents similarly were most likely to have met their most recent boy/girlfriend in the past 12 months at school. However, they differed on many characteristics of romantic relationship initiation, including the extent to which they initiated romantic relationships online. LGBTQ and non-LGBTQ adolescents also differed on level of offline access to potential partners, offline popularity, and numerous other factors possibly related to online relationship initiation (e.g., Internet use and demographic factors). Even after adjusting for differences in these factors, LGBTQ adolescents were more likely than non-LGBTQ adolescents to find boy/girlfriends online in the past 12 months. The results support the rich-get-richer hypothesis as well as the social compensation hypothesis. (C) 2015 The Foundation for Professionals in Services for Adolescents. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
