TLDR
This large-scale cross-cultural study with the use of Sternberg’s Triangular Love Scale confirmed the cultural universality of the theoretical construct of love analyzed in this study.Abstract:
The Triangular Theory of Love (measured with Sternberg’s Triangular Love Scale – STLS) is a prominent theoretical concept in empirical research on love. To expand the culturally homogeneous body of...read more
