青少年的浪漫关系吸引了大众的兴趣，但是，直到最近，很少有科学的好奇心研究一直受到错误假设的阻碍，这些假设认为青少年的关系是微不足道的和短暂的，除了父母与孩子和同伴关系的影响之外，他们提供的信息很少，而且他们的影响主要与行为和调整问题有关。本文提出区分恋爱关系的五个特征（卷入、伴侣选择、关系内容、质量、认知和情感过程）对于描述青少年的恋爱关系及其发展意义至关重要。这些区别也有助于澄清背景的作用，与年龄相关的变化，以及浪漫经历影响的个体差异。需要研究来阐明浪漫关系如何以及在什么条件下影响个人发展的问题，以及浪漫关系和其他亲密关系如何共同影响青春期的发展轨迹。
Adolescents' romantic relationships have attracted popular interest, but, until recently, little scientific curiosity Research has been impeded by erroneous assumptions that adolescent relationships are trivial and transitory, that they provide little information beyond measures of the influence of parent-child and peer relationships, and that their impact is primarily associated with problems of behavior and adjustment. This article proposes that distinguishing five features of romantic relationships (involvement, partner selection, relationship content, quality, and cognitive and emotional processes) is essential to describing adolescents' relationships and their developmental significance. These distinctions also help to clarify the role of context, age-related variations, and individual differences in the impact of romantic experiences. Research is needed to illuminate questions of how and under what conditions romantic relationships affect individual development and how romantic and other close relationships jointly influence developmental trajectories during adolescence.
