Abstract

The most common dating goals of adolescents are identity, intimacy, status and sex. In this study of Australian youth (16-30 years, N = 208), dating goals were expected to explain goal-consistent behavior in each domain. Also, goals coupled with consistent behavior were expected to be associated with greater satisfaction in each domain. Age, gender, same-sex versus other-sex attraction, and cohabitation were also examined. The four dating goals had small intercorrelations, and for each domain but sex, youth who reported more of a dating goal also reported more goal-consistent behavior. For identity, intimacy and sex, participants were more satisfied when they had more goal-consistent behavior. Goal × Behavior interactions were associated with satisfaction in the domains of intimacy and sex, and identity was the most salient dating goal domain. Individual differences in goals, behavior and satisfaction were most pronounced for gender and cohabitation. Few differences were found between same-sex and other-sex attracted youth.

摘要

青少年最常见的约会目标是身份认同、亲密关系、地位和性。在这项对澳大利亚青年（16-30 岁，N=208）的研究中，约会目标被期望可以解释每个领域中目标一致的行为。此外，目标加上一致的行为也被期望与每个领域的更大满足感相关。年龄、性别、同性吸引与异性吸引，以及同居也被考察。四个约会目标之间的相关性很小，除了性之外，对于每个领域，报告更多约会目标的年轻人也报告了更多目标一致的行为。对于身份认同、亲密关系和性，当参与者有更多目标一致的行为时，他们会更加满意。目标与行为的相互作用与亲密关系和性领域的满意度相关，身份认同是最重要的约会目标领域。在目标、行为和满意度方面，个体差异在性别和同居方面最为明显。在同性吸引和异性吸引的年轻人之间，发现的差异很少。
