Intimacy as an important aspect of interpersonal relationships has been widely accepted (Erikson 1950, Sullivan 1953). In the broad context, an understanding of the role of intimacy has been discussed as essential to the development of a science of interpersonal relationships (Hinde 1978). More specifically, intimacy has been cited as an important dimension of the marital interpersonal relationship (Berman and Lief 1975). This paper describes a study of intimacy in 30 young married couples, randomly selected from the general population. Personal identity and accurate perception of the spouse were significant correlates of marital intimacy, and a factor analysis revealed four dimensions of marital relationships: compatibility, structure, intimacy, and problem-solving. In this study, marital adjustment was significantly correlated with expressiveness, commitment, organization, expressed affection, and the absence of conflict. These findings are discussed in the context of the role of intimacy in a science of interpersonal behavior.
亲密关系作为人际关系的一个重要方面已被广泛接受（埃里克森，1950；沙利文，1953）。从广义上来说，对亲密关系作用的理解已被视为发展人际关系科学的关键（欣德，1978）。更具体地讲，亲密关系被视为婚姻人际关系的一个重要维度（伯曼和利夫，1975）。本文描述了一项对30对年轻已婚夫妇亲密关系的研究，这些夫妇是从普通人群中随机挑选出来的。个人身份认同和对配偶的准确认知是婚姻亲密关系的重要相关因素，一项因素分析揭示了婚姻关系的四个维度：相容性、结构、亲密关系和解决问题的能力。在这项研究中，婚姻调适与表达能力、承诺、组织能力、表达爱意以及没有冲突显著相关。本文将在亲密关系在人际行为科学中的作用这一背景下对这些发现进行讨论。
