18至30歲的初顯成人，處於發展親密關係與獨立任務的階段，多數人已有親密關係且已與交往對象發生過性經驗。而成人依戀與性是成人愛情關係的兩大重要元素，因此本研究聚焦探討初顯成人在愛情關係裡發生性行為的性動機，與依戀、愛情關係滿意度與性滿意度的關係。研究者以問卷調查法收集820名受試者樣本，採用「成人依附特質量表」、「關係評估量表」、「婦女性滿意度量表中文版」、「性動機量表」為研究工具。性動機量表為自編量表，經項目分析、探索性因素分析、驗證性因素分析與內部一致性信度等分析方式，檢驗其信效度。正式樣本資料以描述性統計、獨立樣本t檢定、單因子變異數分析、皮爾森積差相關、階層迴歸分析進行資料處理。研究結果如下：
一、性動機量表包含增強、因應、親密、不安全、同儕、生育、權力與例行等八個分量表。以李克特六點量表編製，所有項目的因素負荷量介於 .73~ .92，因素解釋量為67.33%。全量表之Chronbach’s α係數為 .92。整體來說性動機量表有良好的信效度。
二、性別與研究變項的關係：男性在逃避依戀向度上顯著高於女性，女性在焦慮依戀向度上顯著高於男性；男性在所有性動機因素上顯著高於女性；女性在性滿意度上顯著高於男性；男女在愛情關係滿意度上沒有顯著差異。
三、背景變項與性動機的關係：年齡愈大，生育性動機愈高；異性戀在生育性動機顯著高於同性戀、雙性戀；異性戀在權力性動機顯著高於同性戀。
四、逃避依戀向度與焦慮依戀向度，負向預測愛情關係滿意度與性滿意度，且逃避依戀向度影響力更大。
五、逃避依戀經由例行性動機負向影響愛情關係滿意度；逃避依戀經由同儕與例行性動機負向影響性滿意度；焦慮依戀經由同儕、權力與例行性動機負向影響愛情關係滿意度；焦慮依戀經由同儕性動機負向影響性滿意度。

Emerging adults who are 18 to 30 years old are at the stage of developing intimate relationships and independent tasks. Most people already have intimate relationships and have had sexual experience with their partners. The purpose of the study was to develop a Sexual Motivation Scale in the romantic relationship, and to explore the relationship between adult attachment, romantic relationship satisfaction and sexual satisfaction in emerging adulthood. The researchers collected a sample of 820 subjects. The formal scale was Experience in Close Relationship-Revised (ECR-R), Relationship Assessment Scale (RAS), the Sexual Satisfaction Scale for Women Traditional Chinese Version (SSS-W-TC), and Sexual Motivation Scale.
The reliability and validity of Sexual Motivation Scale were tested through item analysis, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and internal consistency reliability. The data was analyzed by descriptive statistics, independent sample t test, one-way multivariate analysis of variance, Pearson correlation, and hierarchical regression analysis. The results of the study are as follows:
1.Sexual Motivation Scale includes eight subscales: Enhancement, Coping, Intimacy, Insecurity, Peer, Fertility, Power and Routine. The factor loading was between .73 and .92, and the explained variance was 67.33%. The Chronbach's α coefficient was .92.
2.Males were significantly higher than females in attachment avoidance, and women were significantly higher than males in attachment anxiety. Males were significantly higher than females in all sexual motivation subscales. Females were significantly higher than males in sexual satisfaction. There was no significant difference between men and women in the romantic relationship satisfaction.
3.Age was positively associated with Fertility motivation. Heterosexuality was significantly higher than homosexuality and bisexuality in Fertility motivation, and heterosexuality was significantly higher than homosexuality in Power motivation.
4.Attachment anxiety and attachment avoidance negatively predicted romantic relationship satisfaction and sexual satisfaction. Attachment avoidance was more influential than attachment anxiety.
5.Routine motivation were partially mediated the relation of attachment avoidance and romantic relationship satisfaction. Peer and Routine motivation were partially mediated the relation of attachment avoidance and sexual satisfaction. Peer, Power and Routine motivation were partially mediated the relation of attachment anxiety and romantic relationship satisfaction. Peer motivation were partially mediated the relation of attachment anxiety and sexual satisfaction.
