低收入的浪漫关系的研究,非洲裔美国年轻人主要集中在问题行为上,很少记录在中产阶级大学生中广泛研究的非病理性关系过程,他们的富裕和主要是欧洲裔美国人[黑人研究杂志39(2009)570]。为了确定与异性恋浪漫关系相关的非病理性文化概念,我们采访了144名来自加利福尼亚州旧金山弗朗西斯科湾区、伊利诺伊州大都市芝加哥和阿拉巴马州大伯明翰的中低收入、19-22岁的非洲裔美国年轻人。我们确定了12个与浪漫关系相关的性别共享脚本,包括(1)定义关系,(2)加入过程,(3)维持平衡;(4)调节冲突。理解浪漫关系脚本是重要的,因为成功的浪漫关系与改善的心理和身体健康低收入的人相比,没有浪漫的合作伙伴的人[社会科学与医学52(2001)1501]。
Research on romantic relationships among lower income, African American young adults has mostly focused on problem behaviors, and has infrequently documented nonpathological relationship processes that are widely studied among middle‐class college students, their wealthier and largely European American counterparts [Journal of Black Studies 39 (2009) 570]. To identify nonpathological cultural concepts related to heterosexual romantic relationships, we interviewed 144 low to low‐mid income, African American young adults aged 19–22 from the San Francisco Bay Area, CA, metropolitan Chicago, IL, and Greater Birmingham, AL. We identified 12 gender‐shared scripts related to the romantic relationship in areas of (1) defining the relationship, (2) processes of joining, (3) maintaining balance, and (4) modulating conflict. Understanding romantic relationship scripts is important as successful romantic relationships are associated with improved mental and physical health among lower income individuals as compared with individuals without romantic partners [Social Science & Medicine 52 (2001) 1501].
