Perceptions of cognitive compensation and interpersonal enjoyment of collaboration were examined in three hundred middle-aged and older couples who completed measures of perceptions of collaboration, cognitive ability, marital satisfaction, an errand task and judged their spouse's affiliation. Older adults (especially men) endorsed cognitive compensation and interpersonal enjoyment and reported using collaboration more frequently than middle-aged adults. Greater need for cognitive compensation was related to lower cognitive ability only for older wives. Greater marital satisfaction was associated with greater interpersonal enjoyment. These two functions related to reports of more frequent use of collaboration and perceptions of spousal affiliation in a collaborative task.
本研究调查了 300 对中年及以上的夫妇对认知补偿和人际互动愉悦感的认知，这些夫妇完成了合作感知、认知能力、婚姻满意度、差事任务以及对配偶亲密度的评价。研究发现，老年人（尤其是男性）更认可认知补偿和人际互动愉悦感，且报告称比中年成年人更频繁地使用合作。对于老年妻子而言，对认知补偿的需求越大，其认知能力越低。较高的婚姻满意度与较高的人际互动愉悦感相关。这两个功能与在合作任务中报告更频繁地使用合作以及对配偶亲密度的感知有关。
