This cross-sectional study investigated the perception and motivation of forgiveness among 785 heterosexually married adults from the Flanders region in Belgium. A descriptive analysis showed that, in general, the respondents have a rather positive perception of forgiveness. In the second phase of the study, a t-test showed evidence of a significant difference between the positive perception of forgiveness of the first-married and remarried adults. But on a gender level, there was no difference either in the positive or in the negative scales. This study has shown that the general forgiveness has significant (p < 0.001) positive correlation with the perception of forgiveness.
这项横断面研究调查了比利时法兰德斯地区785名异性婚姻成年人对宽恕的认知和动机。描述性分析表明，总体而言，受访者对宽恕的认知较为积极。在研究的第二阶段，t检验显示初婚和再婚成年人在对宽恕的积极认知上存在显著差异。但在性别层面，无论是积极量表还是消极量表上都没有差异。这项研究表明，总体宽恕与宽恕认知之间存在显著的（p < 0.001）正相关。
