Despite the popularity of mentoring programs, the relational dimension of mentoring has not been elucidated. Traditional conceptions of mentoring may exclude factors that are particularly important for women and girls, thus limiting the efficacy of mentoring programs for female adolescents. We suggest that the presence of relational qualities in the mentoring relationship (e.g., empathy, engagement, authenticity, and empowerment) strongly influences the success of mentoring in the lives of young women. In this study, we use a promising new measure of mentoring, the Relational Health Index - Mentor, to explore the impact of relational aspects of mentoring in female college students. We found that mentoring relationships high in relational qualities were associated with higher self-esteem and less loneliness
尽管指导计划很受欢迎，但指导的关系维度尚未得到阐明。传统的指导观念可能会排除对妇女和女孩特别重要的因素，从而限制了针对青少年女性的指导计划的效果。我们认为，指导关系中关系品质的存在（如同感、参与、真诚和赋权）会强烈影响年轻女性生活中指导的成功。在本研究中，我们使用一种很有前景的新的指导衡量标准，即关系健康指数-指导者，来探讨指导的关系方面对女大学生的影响。我们发现，关系品质高的指导关系与更高的自尊和更少的孤独感相关。
