Adolescents' negative expectations of their peers were examined as predictors of their future selection of hostile partners, in a community sample of 184 adolescents followed from ages 13 to 24. Utilizing observational data, close friend- and self-reports, adolescents with more negative expectations at age 13 were found to be more likely to form relationships with observably hostile romantic partners and friends with hostile attitudes by age 18 even after accounting for baseline levels of friend hostile attitudes at age 13 and adolescents' own hostile behavior and attitudes. Furthermore, the presence of friends with hostile attitudes at age 18 in turn predicted higher levels of adult friend hostile attitudes at age 24. Results suggest the presence of a considerable degree of continuity from negative expectations to hostile partnerships from adolescence well into adulthood.
在一项对184名青少年从13岁到24岁进行跟踪调查的社区样本中，研究了青少年对同龄人持有的负面期望，以此作为他们未来选择敌对伴侣的预测指标。利用观察数据、密友报告和自我报告发现，即使在考虑了13岁时朋友敌对态度的基线水平以及青少年自身的敌对行为和态度之后，13岁时负面期望较高的青少年在18岁时更有可能与明显敌对的浪漫伴侣建立关系，以及结交持敌对态度的朋友。此外，18岁时存在持敌对态度的朋友反过来又预示着24岁时成年朋友的敌对态度会更高。结果表明，从青少年期到成年期，从负面期望到敌对关系存在相当程度的连续性。
