“…For example, in a study exploring associations between social network characteristics and clinical outcomes among 130 homeless people diagnosed with substance abuse and severe mental illness, Trumbetta, Mueser, Quimby, Bebout, and Teague (1999) found that social networks tended to be small, smaller networks predicted alcohol use over time, and substance use disorder remitted when individuals had fewer substance users in their baseline networks. Research has also shown that drug use can hinder the formation of intimate relationships among homeless adults (Blais, Côté, Manseau, Martel, & Provencher, 2012). Nonetheless, having an intimate partner can have a beneficial effect on a homeless person's drug use, self-esteem, wellbeing and motivation to move away from a street-based lifestyle (Nyamathi, Wenzel, Keenan, Leake, & Gelberg, 1999;Stevenson & Neale, 2012).…”

“…À partir d'une étude réalisée auprès de quarante-deux jeunes en situation de rue (Blais et al, 2012), cet article présente une analyse secondaire des témoignages de quatorze d'entre eux qui décrivent une expérience marquée par la consommation de drogues. L'étude originale visait à documenter les conditions de vie amoureuse et sexuelle des jeunes en situation de rue.…”

“…La consommation de drogues constitue aussi un obstacle important au développement et au maintien des relations amoureuses chez les jeunes en situation de rue (Blais, Côté, Manseau, Martel, & Provencher, 2012 ;Jamoulle, 2009). L'emprise exercée par la drogue susciterait des conflits conjugaux et ferait entrave à l'engagement des partenaires.…”

“…Par exemple, Jamoulle (2009 : 11) décrit les rencontres amoureuses des jeunes en situation de rue comme des « stratégies sociales et affectives ». D'autres suggèrent que les expériences affectives et sexuelles de ces jeunes visent à combler un vide affectif (Levac & Labelle, 2007), à briser l'isolement (Kidd & Davidson, 2007), à fournir un soutien éco-nomique et psychologique (Kidd & Davidson, 2007 ;Loates & Walsh, 2010 ;Rayburn & Corzine, 2010 ;Blais et al, 2012), ainsi qu'à les soutenir dans leur sortie du milieu de la drogue ou de la situation de rue (Kidd & Davidson, 2007 ;Levac & Labelle, 2007 ;Blais et al, 2012). Ces travaux mettent de l'avant une certaine instrumentalisation des liens affectifs et sexuels par les jeunes pour survivre en situation de rue.…”
