Romantic relationship formation and the engagement in sexual
behaviors are normative and salient developmental tasks for
adolescents and young adults. These developmental tasks are
increasingly viewed from an ecological perspective, thus as
strongly embedded in different social contexts. This volume brings
together seven recent empirical studies that investigated different
aspects of adolescents' and young adults' romantic relationships
and sexuality, and the linkages with various characteristics of
relations with parents, peers, and partners. These studies were
conducted in six Western countries, including Australia, Belgium,
Canada, Germany, the Netherlands, and the USA. Three studies
examined the formation of young people's romantic relationships,
and the other four studies focused on youth's developing sexuality.
Together, they employed a diverse range of state-of-the-art
research methods, including online questionnaires,
computer-assisted interviews, daily diary assessments, and
observations of dyadic interactions. In the editorial chapter,
these recent advances in empirical research are discussed and
framed within two important changes in the theoretical perspectives
on young people's emerging romantic relationships and sexual
activity: from risky behaviors to normative tasks, and from
individual to contextualized processes. Throughout this volume,
important directions for future research are suggested,
specifically focusing on how to better incorporate the
interrelational perspective into empirical research on these
topics, and how to further bridge the gap between the research
fields on romantic relationships and sexuality. This book was
originally published as a special issue of the European Journal of
Developmental Psychology.
