Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The key questions in this study were to determine how people in adulthood view romantic love, how it is positioned in their life course, and how they do (or do not) loving. The problems in romantic relationships among unmarried people in adulthood (especially marriage-hunting people) were caused by being bound by an overabundance of information and norms. In addition, romantic love was positioned in relation to other elements of life, such as hobbies, work, and household, and was positioned as one of “the things I would like to do if I could”. It seems that one of the characteristics of romantic love among people in adulthood is the number of considerations of factors in the life domain.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
心理学において恋愛は青年期の重要な課題であるとされ、本邦では青年期を中心に検討がなされてきた。しかし、近年は成人期においても恋愛が活発であるとともに、「婚活支援」の名の下で成人期における恋愛が支援されている。すなわち、成人期の恋愛の心理的側面については明らかにされないまま支援制度だけが整備されており、その支援はとくに心理的側面に関して不十分なものに成らざるを得ない。 本研究では、成人期において恋愛がいかになされているのかを明らかにし、また成人期の恋愛を捉える視点を提供することを試みた。したがって、本研究は成人期における恋愛の支援の在り方に再考を促すものと考えられる。
