Forty couples aged 18-25 years who were in love relationships of three months or more were tested concerning the level of addiction or maturity in the relationship. The results of three questionnaires revealed significant positive correlations between the following: self-esteem and maturity, adjustment and maturity, adjustment and relationship satisfaction, relationship satisfaction and maturity, relationship satisfaction and self-esteem, sexual satisfaction and maturity, and sexual satisfaction and relationship satisfaction. In a multiple regression, three variables (adjustment, relationship satisfaction, and intercourse) predicted a significant amount of the variance surrounding the maturity variable. The results supported the hypotheses proposed.
对40对年龄在18至25岁之间、恋爱关系持续三个月或更长时间的情侣进行了恋爱关系上瘾程度或成熟度测试。三份问卷的结果显示，以下各项之间存在显著正相关：自尊与成熟度、适应能力与成熟度、适应能力与恋爱关系满意度、恋爱关系满意度与成熟度、恋爱关系满意度与自尊、性满意度与成熟度、性满意度与恋爱关系满意度。在多元回归分析中，三个变量（适应能力、恋爱关系满意度和性交）预测了围绕成熟度变量的大量方差。结果支持了所提出的假设。
