• Examining Relational Maintenance in Parasocial Relationships (2012, methodology): “This aligns with previous research employing the investment model in which the quality of alternatives played a smaller role in predicting commitment in casual relationships as compared to close friendships (Branje et al., 2007) as the latter typically entail more exclusivity.”
• Friendship stability and change in childhood and adolescence (2010, background): “Brendgen, Vitaro, Turgeon, and Poulin (2002) have documented that, compared with well-adjusted children, depressed children maintain a negatively biased view of their peer relationships.”
