Abstract: This research aimed to examine the relationship between the college students' self-esteem and intimate relationship with the mediating role of relationship beliefs. 463 college students were surveyed with selfesteem scale, implicit theories of relationships scale and the relationship assessment scale. Results showed that selfesteem and growth belief were positively correlated with the quality of intimate relationship; college students' self-esteem could positively predict their intimate relationship; growth belief played mediating role between college students' self-esteem and intimate relationship but destiny belief did not. Hence, the college students' self-esteem can influence the intimate relationship directly or through the growth belief. The results of this study were valuable for the establishment, maintenance and development of intimate relationships among college students.

Key words: college students, selfesteem, intimate relationship, relationship beliefs
