Introduction: Having healthy interaction and establishing love and expressing intimacy with each other is one of the manifestations of social life. The purpose of the present study was to predict love based on object relations and the quality of parental relationships among the students of Kashan universities in 2019.
Methods: The present research was carried out by descriptive-correlation method. The statistical population included all students of Islamic Azad University, Kashan branch, in undergraduate and graduate degrees in 2019. Sampling was done in a non-random and convenience method. Using Morgan's table, 384 people were selected. The instruments used for the demographic questionnaire were "Sternberg's Triangular Love Scale", "Bell Object Relations Inventory" and "Quality of Relationships Inventory". The validity and reliability of the instruments were limited to previous researches. The data was analyzed in SPSS.22.
Results: Object relations and its components have a significant negative correlation with the total score of love and can predict it (P<0.05). Also, the total score of object relations has the power of predicting different sub-scales of love (intimacy, commitment and passion) and their correlation is also inverse. The correlation of the total score of the quality of parents' relationships with the total score of love and its subscales is not meaningful and does not have the ability to predict them. But each of the quality components of parents' relationships (conflict, social support, relationship depth) can predict the total love score.
Conclusions: Object relations and its components have a significant negative correlation with the total score of love and have the ability to predict it. The total score of the quality of parents' relationships has no significant correlation with the total score of love and its subscales and does not have the ability to predict them. But each of the quality components of parents' relationships can predict the total love score. It is suggested to hold psychological and educational classes before marriage and counseling during and after marriage.
