To capture the attention of a romantic partner requires thoughtful selection of effective pursuit strategies. Sometimes, these strategies err on the side of caution; in other instances, pursuers can take a bolder approach to their courtship endeavors. In the present research, we developed a measure capturing the degree to which a romantic pursuer intends to take a presumptuous course of action. Across five studies (Ntotal = 2,137), we validated a 13-item self-report measure: the presumptuous romantic intentions (PRI) scale. First, we used a training set to refine item content and explore factor structures. Then, using a validation set, we confirmed a bifactor solution with one general and three auxiliary factors. We then observed test–retest reliability over periods of 3 and 4 weeks, found strict measurement invariance across both relationship status (single and partnered individuals) and across gender (women and men). We also found that PRI predicted actual presumptuous romantic behavior over the subsequent month. Finally, we established a pattern of convergent and discriminant associations with relationship measures, socioemotional outcomes, executive function, dark personality traits and more. This new measure may be of interest to researchers studying intimate relationships, partner violence, and the gray area in between.

浪漫的灰色地带:衡量自以为是的浪漫意图。

为了吸引浪漫伴侣的注意力,需要深思熟虑地选择有效的追求策略。有时,这些策略会因谨慎而犯错;在其他情况下,追求者可以采取更大胆的方式进行求爱。在目前的研究中,我们开发了一种衡量浪漫追求者打算采取冒昧行为的程度的方法。跨越五项研究(N= 2,137),我们验证了一个包含 13 个项目的自我报告量表:自以为是的浪漫意图(PRI)量表。首先,我们使用训练集来细化项目内容并探索因子结构。然后,使用验证集,我们确认了具有一个一般因素和三个辅助因素的双因素解决方案。然后,我们观察了 3 周和 4 周的重测信度,发现在关系状态(单身和伴侣)和性别(女性和男性)之间存在严格的测量不变性。我们还发现,PRI 预测了接下来一个月实际的放肆浪漫行为。最后,我们建立了一种与关系测量、社会情感结果、执行功能、黑暗人格特征等相关的收敛和判别关联模式。
