Sternberg developed a multi-item scale to measure love. Why has his triangular love scale not received widespread use among relationship scientists?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Despite Sternberg's theoretical model of love, research suggests that the three components of love - passion, intimacy, and commitment - are highly correlated and often not distinct from one another. Consequently, the triangular love scale may not accurately measure these constructs separately, leading to its limited use among relationship scientists.
