[en] Although well-being is related to many positive outcomes and love is a central preoccupation in human lives, scientific literature has not provided clear evidence on whether love for a romantic partner has consequences for well-being. Love for a romantic partner has been conceived by three main current theories but there is a lack of evidence of the link their respective concepts share with well-being. This pilot study aims to report first complete evidence on their association and to allow power computing for future investigation on the topic.
