Item Gender Differences in Developing Romantic Relationships: Intimacy and Commitment(2009-10-07) Steele, Ryan D.Are there gender differences in the relation between adolescent romantic relationship intimacy and later romantic relationship functioning?Item Prospective Longitudinal Links between Unemployment and Depressive Symptoms in Young Adults(2010-04-21) Steele, Ryan D.Since 2006, the national unemployment rate has steadily increased, from 4% to nearly 10% in 2009.

Presence of a romantic partner has been shown to buffer the negative consequences of unemployment.

Do changes in employment status relate to changes in depressive symptoms? Does involvement in a romantic relationship at age 26 moderate the relation between changes in employment status and depressive symptoms?
