This study investigated how relational efficacy affects functions of safe haven and secure base in romantic relationships and same-sex friendships. Relational efficacy, which is a shared or intersubjective efficacy of relationship partners, refers to a pair's belief that they can mutually coordinate and integrate their resources to prevent and resolve any problems. Participants were 97 dating heterosexual couples and 119 same-sex friendships. Multilevel structural equation modeling suggested that relational efficacy promotes the safe haven function and the secure base function in romantic relationships and same-sex friendships, controlled for sex, relationship longevity, irreplaceability, attachment anxiety, and attachment avoidance. Additionally, the effects of relational efficacy on the safe haven function and the secure base function in romantic relationships are stronger than in same-sex friendships. These results are discussed in terms of the association between intersubjective processes in close relationships and individuals' hedonic/eudaimonic well-being.
本研究调查了关系效能如何影响浪漫关系和同性友谊中的避风港功能与安全基地功能。关系效能是关系伙伴的一种共享或主体间效能,指的是一对伴侣相信他们能够相互协调和整合资源以预防和解决任何问题。研究参与者包括97对正在约会的异性恋情侣和119对同性朋友。多层次结构方程模型表明,在控制了性别、关系持续时间、不可替代性、依恋焦虑和依恋回避等因素后,关系效能促进了浪漫关系和同性友谊中的避风港功能与安全基地功能。此外,关系效能对浪漫关系中避风港功能和安全基地功能的影响比对同性友谊中的影响更强。本文根据亲密关系中的主体间过程与个体享乐主义/幸福主义幸福感之间的关联对这些结果进行了讨论。
