Abstract

Abstrak. Konsep bahasa cinta yang dicetuskan oleh Chapman telah dikaji sebelumnya melalui pengujian konsistensi internal dan relasi dengan variabel lain. Studi terdahulu berawal dari gagasan Chapman yang kemudian diujicobakan pada sampel penelitian. Penelitian ini sebaliknya bertujuan untuk melihat dengan perspektif grounded theory hal-hal yang membuat seseorang merasa dicintai. Penelitian ini juga hendak mencari bahasa cinta yang kontekstual melalui pendekatan kualitatif. Jurnal harian (n = 36) serta kuesioner diisi oleh partisipan (n = 400). Data yang diperoleh kemudian diolah dengan proses coding. Untuk mencapai kredibilitas data, penulis melakukan analisis saturasi data yang diperoleh. Hasil penelitian memperoleh tujuh hasil coding yang menunjukkan bahasa cinta partisipan yaitu quality time, words of affirmation, acts of service, physical touch, sacrificial love, karakter dan temperamen, dan perasaan. Teori awal yang terdiri dari lima bahasa cinta terdukung oleh hasil temuan ini. Akan tetapi, perspektif indigenous mampu menunjukkan adanya elemen unik dari bahasa cinta seperti perasaan dicintai saat pasangan melakukan pengorbanan.
