As prior research has indicated that shyness is associated with social anxiety, inhibition, and generally less fulfilling social relationships, this study examined the possible affect of shyness on one specific type of relationship, romantic love. Participants ( N=124) completed the Revised Cheek-Buss Shyness Scale and the Love Attitudes Scale, and provided basic information about themselves and their current romantic relationships. A chi-square test showed no significant association between high or low Shyness scores and whether participants were currently involved in a romantic relationship, but there were significant positive correlations between these scores and those on two of the six love styles, Storge and Mania. In interpreting the results, the effects of shyness on relationships, social expectations, and love attitudes are discussed.

81 participants in a village in Guatemala were administered a translated version of the 1986 Love Attitudes Scale of Hendrick and Hendrick. Analysis showed that the men scored significantly higher on the Ludus love style than the women. Research among other Latinos outside the United States is suggested.

Previous research has shown a relationship between love styles and shyness. This study explored the possibility that this effect may be due to differences in patterns of self-disclosure associated with shyness. University student participants ( N = 143) completed the Love Attitudes Scale, the Emotional Self-Disclosure Scale, and the Revised Cheek and Buss Shyness Scale. Correlations between the measures were calculated and significant results ranged from r = .18 to .30. Findings supported previous research in showing significant relationships between shyness and love styles; self-disclosure showed no relationship with shyness but did show some direct associations with love style scores. Results are discussed in relation to the importance of self-disclosure in relationship development.

U cilju utvrđivanja sociodemografskih, intrapersonalnih i interpersonalnih korelata neverstva, ispitan je 521 ispitanik (55.5% muškog pola), starosti između 19 i 68 godina (AS = 33.32, SD = 9.1). Za procenu neverstva primenjena je Skala neverstva (Infidelity Scale: Drigotas, Safstorm & Gentilila, 1999). Od intrapersonalnih varijabli, dimenzije partnerske afektivne vezanosti su ispitane skraćenom skalom ECR (Experiences in Close Relationships Inventory – ECR: Brennan, Clark, & Shaver, 1998; modifikacija Kamenov i Jelić, 2003), a ljubavni stilovi su mereni Skalom ljubavnih stavova (Love Attitudes Scale – LAS: Hendrick,  Hendrick, & Dicke, 1998). U domenu interpersonalnih varijabli, DAS skalom (Dyadic Adjustment Scale – DAS: Spanier, 1976) su ispitane dimenzije kvaliteta partnerskog odnosa, a potencijal za razvod je meren Indeksom bračne nestabilnosti (Martial Instability Index: Booth, Johnson, & Edwards, 1983). Od sociodemografskih varijabli, od ispitanika su prikupljeni podaci o starosti, obrazovanju, radnom, materijalnom i bračnom statusu, dužini partnerskog odnosa i broju dece. Rezultati hijerarhijske višestruke regresione analize pokazuju da je skup intrapersonalnih i interpersonalnih varijabli, statistički značajno povezan sa neverstvom, ali je količina objašnjene varijanse relativno niska. Kao značajni prediktori neverstva izdvojeni su: dimenzija izbegavanja afektivne vezanosti i Ludus stil ljubavi iz domena intrapersonalnih varijabli, a od interpersonalnih varijabli: potencijal za razvod, konsenzus, zadovoljstvo brakom i afektivno-seksualna usaglašenost.
